The present invention teaches a pixel unit including thin film transistors (TFTs) and pixel electrodes corresponding to the TFTs. The pixel electrodes are connected to the source electrodes of the TFTs. Each pixel electrode includes multiple arc-shaped electrode units arranged at intervals along an axial direction around a periphery of a corresponding TFT. The electrode units are electrically connected together. The present invention adopts arc-shaped pixels (similar to concentric circles) so that liquid crystal molecules are closer to being isotropic. Then, by having different vertical alignment (VA) TFT designs in the primary pixel region and secondary pixel region and utilizing the differences in W/L and capacitance, different voltage levels for primary pixel electrode and secondary pixel electrode are achieved. The color shift problem is improved and the viewing angle is enhanced.

A display may have one or more bent portions. To increase the magnitude of curvature in a display and/or to allow for compound curvature in the display, a display panel may be partially formed in a planar state. The partial display panel is then bent to have desired curvature. After the partial display panel is bent, additional display components that are susceptible to damage during the bending process may be added to complete the display panel. A flexible printed circuit may be formed directly on the display panel using precise deposition of conductive material. By forming the flexible printed circuit layer-by-layer directly on the display panel, no substantive pressure needs to be applied to the display panel. Electrical connections may therefore be made to the display panel in regions of the display with high levels of curvature and/or with compound curvature without causing front-of-screen artifacts for the display panel.
