Abstract
A display device includes a display panel, a folding information detector, a control module, and a distortion compensator. The display panel displays an image and includes a folding area folded with respect to an imaginary folding axis and a plurality of non-folding areas adjacent to the folding area when viewed in a plan view. The folding information detector detects folding information about the display panel, and a control module outputs a control signal based on the folding information provided from the folding information detector. The distortion compensator compensates for a distortion of the image displayed through the folding area in response to the control signal.
