1. A display device comprising:
a display panel configured to display an image and comprising a light emitting area and a non-light-emitting area adjacent to the light emitting area, wherein a light emitting element is disposed in the tight emitting area; and
an input sensor disposed on the display panel and comprising a sensing electrode, wherein an opening in the sensing electrode partially exposes the light emitting area, wherein the sensing electrode comprises:
a first touch electrode disposed to overlap the non-light-emitting area; and
a second touch electrode overlapping the light emitting area and the non-light-emitting area and electrically connected to the first touch electrode,
wherein the first touch electrode is spaced apart from the second touch electrode, and
wherein the first touch electrode and the second touch electrode are directly disposed on a same layer,
wherein a surface of the first touch electrode that is closest to the display panel is coplanar with a surface of the second touch electrode that is closest to the display panel.
