Abstract
A display device is provided and includes first and second substrates; a liquid crystal layer filled between the first and second substrates; a counter electrode pattern formed on the first substrate; scanning lines extending in a first direction; signal lines; and a first pixel electrode pattern and a second pixel electrode pattern formed on the first substrate, wherein the first pixel electrode pattern and the second pixel electrode pattern are located in line symmetry with respect to a first scanning line of the scanning lines.
