Abstract

A liquid crystal display device includes first and second substrates facing and spaced apart from each other, each of the first and second substrates having a first sub-pixel region, a second sub-pixel region, a third sub-pixel region, a fourth sub-pixel region and a fifth sub-pixel region for adjusting a viewing angle, the first, second, third and fourth sub-pixel regions surrounding the fifth sub-pixel region; a liquid crystal layer between the first and second substrates; a plurality of first pixel electrodes in each of the first, second, third and fourth sub-pixel regions on the first substrate; a plurality of first common electrodes in each of the first, second, third and fourth sub-pixel regions on the first substrate, the plurality of first common electrodes alternating with the plurality of first pixel electrodes; a second pixel electrode in the fifth sub-pixel region on the first substrate; and a second common electrode in the fifth sub-pixel region on the second substrate, the second common electrode facing the second pixel electrode.
