DISPLAY DEVICE

Provided is a display device (100) that includes a display panel (110) defined with an active area (A/A) displaying an image and an inactive area (I/A) outside the active area (A/A), the display panel (110) including a substrate (230) having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface; a plurality of pixels on the first surface of the substrate (230) in the active area (A/A), each pixel including a pixel drive circuit; a transparent conductive layer (IM) on the second surface of the substrate (230) covering the active area (A/A) and a part of the inactive area (I/A); and a metal pattern (MP) on the second surface of the substrate (230) in the inactive area (I/A), the metal pattern (MP) electrically connected to the transparent conductive layer (IM), receiving an electrical signal and having a lower resistance than the transparent conductive layer (IM), wherein the metal pattern (MP) serves as a conductive path to reduce a potential difference with respect to the electrical signal in an entire area of the transparent conductive layer (IM) compared to a display device without the metal pattern (MP).
