U+1F5B5 "🖵" Screen Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
🖵
U+1F5B5 "🖵" Screen is a glyph that falls within the Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs block, depicting a simplified representation of a computer monitor or display screen. It was introduced as part of Unicode 7.0 in 2014 to offer a visual symbol for screens and monitors in digital contexts. While it shares an appearance with more commonly used screen-related emoji, such as the desktop computer or television icons, this character is less frequently supported across modern platforms and fonts. Its primary purpose is to serve as a standard text symbol for representing a screen in technical or graphical notation rather than as a full color emoji.
