Abstract

A non-rectangular shape display panel comprises a non-rectangular shape display region and a non-display region. The non-rectangular shape display region includes a plurality of pixels arranged in both a row direction and a column direction. A pixel includes at least three sub-pixels of different colors, a first color sub-pixel having a first color filter, a second color sub-pixel having a second color filter, and a third color sub-pixel having a third color filter. The non-rectangular shape display region includes at least one irregular edge intersecting the row direction and the column direction. The pixels intersecting the at least one irregular edge are first pixels and the remained pixels are second pixels. A first pixel is divided by the at least one irregular edge into a first light-transmitting region configured in the non-rectangular shape display region and a first light-shielding region shielded by a black matrix.
