Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a liquid crystal display device capable of improving a viewing angle, while not decreasing an aperture ratio and preventing an increase in electricity consumption. A liquid crystal display device (1) of the present invention includes an active matrix substrate including a plurality of drain electrodes (14) disposed in a matrix form, a counter substrate including a plurality of common electrodes, and a liquid crystal layer being sandwiched between the active matrix substrate and the counter substrate, each of the plurality of drain electrodes (14) having formed (i) a subpixel (16a) part facing a first common electrode (11) among the plurality of common electrodes, across the liquid crystal layer, and (ii) a subpixel (16b) part facing a second common electrode (12) among the plurality of common electrodes, across the liquid crystal layer. To the first common electrode (11), a first common electrode voltage (VC1) having a first center voltage (VCOMDC1) is applied, and to the second common electrode (12), a second common electrode voltage (VC2) having a second center voltage (VCOMDC2) different from the first center voltage is applied.
