1. A display device, comprising:
- a display panel having first, second, and third areas;
at least three sound generating actuators including first, second, and third actuators each spaced apart from the other two in a long axis direction of the display panel, wherein the first, second, and third actuators each directly contact the display panel at the first, second, and third areas, respectively, to generate sound by vibrating the display panel;
a support structure at a rear side of the display panel configured to support the at least three sound generating actuators;
a first partition configured to separate the first and the second areas; and
a second partition configured to separate the second and the third areas,wherein each of the first partition and the second partition includes a bent portion bent toward the second actuator, and an end position of the bent portion is disposed on a line in the long axis direction that passes through a center of the second actuator.
