1. A device comprising:
- a display panel, wherein the display panel comprises two or more bonding areas;
a driver configured to drive the display panel;
a layer that provides a medium via which signals can propagate to and from the driver, and wherein the driver is mounted to the layer;
two or more flexible connectors, wherein the two or more flexible connectors provide communication paths between the display panel and the driver, and wherein a first end of each of the two or more flexible connectors connects to the display panel at a corresponding one of the two or more bonding areas, and wherein a second end of each of the two or more flexible connectors connects to the driver via the layer;
a backlight, wherein the backlight is located between the display panel and the layer;
one or more light sources;
one or more light coupling units, wherein each light coupling unit is configured to guide light, when emitted by a corresponding light source of the one or more light sources, to the backlight; and
a printed circuit board, wherein the one or more light sources are directly connected to the printed circuit board, and the layer and the backlight are between the printed circuit board and the display panel.
