1. A display device comprising:
a display substrate including a plurality of pixels, an active area longer than a display region, and a frame region formed to surround the active area; and
a cover glass attached to a display surface side of the display substrate,
wherein a frame is provided in a periphery of the cover glass,
the display region is a region where the active area and a region surrounded by the frame of the cover glass overlap each other,
the frame region is provided with a terminal section, a source driver disposed along a first side being a side facing the terminal section of the active area, and a gate driver and an emission driver that are disposed along a second side being a side orthogonal to the first side,
the active area is provided with
subpixels of at least three kinds of color constituting each of the plurality of pixels and disposed in the same order in a direction parallel to the first side in each of the plurality of pixels,
a plurality of data lines electrically connected to the source driver, the plurality of data lines provided in parallel to the second side and connected to the subpixels,
a plurality of gate lines electrically connected to the gate driver, the plurality of gate lines provided in parallel to the first side and connected to the subpixels, and
a plurality of emission lines electrically connected to the emission driver, the plurality of emission lines provided in parallel to the first side and connected to the subpixels,
a control circuit is provided and configured to control at least one of the source driver, the gate driver, and the emission driver and to drive the plurality of pixels according to the display region, and
the control circuit includes at least a second control circuit configured to constitute one pixel by a subpixel first matching a color of a base end subpixel and other subpixels of at least two kinds of color in a side of the second side of the display region and configured to input a control signal to the source driver and input a data signal to a data line, corresponding to the subpixel matching the color of the base end subpixel, when the color of the base end subpixel positioned first in a side of the second side of the active area is different from a color of a second subpixel positioned first in the side of the second side of the display region.
