1. A display, comprising:
- a flexible display substrate having an active region and a curved edge portion, wherein the flexible display substrate has an additional curved edge portion and wherein the active region is interposed between the curved edge portion and the additional curved edge portion;
a touch sensor having an active region and a curved edge portion; and
active display structures on the flexible display substrate in the active region; and
conductive traces on the flexible display substrate that extend from the active display structures in the active region onto the curved edge portion.
