1. An electronic apparatus, comprising:
an electronic module that outputs and/or receives light; and
an electronic panel that is divided into a first region that overlaps the electronic module, a second region that surrounds at least a portion of the first region, and a third region adjacent to the second region,
wherein the electronic panel includes:
a base substrate;
a plurality of pixels that are disposed on the base substrate and are configured to display light in the second region;
an encapsulation layer that is disposed on the base substrate and covers the pixels in the second region; and
a boundary pattern disposed on the base substrate in the first region,
wherein the first region includes a central region and a pattern region that at least partially surrounds the central region,
wherein the boundary pattern is spaced apart from the central region and is disposed along the pattern region,
wherein the encapsulation layer includes
a first inorganic layer overlapping the second region to cover the pixels; and
a second inorganic layer disposed on the first inorganic layer in the second region and extended from the second region to the first region to overlap the first and second regions, and
wherein the first inorganic layer does not overlap the central region and the second inorganic layer is disposed on the base substrate and overlaps the base substrate in the central region.
