A display device comprising:
- a first substrate;
- a switch element disposed on the first substrate
- a pixel electrode disposed on the first substrate, the pixel electrode comprising a first portion, a second portion, and a connection portion disposed between the first and second portions, and electrically connecting the first and second portions with each other;
- a capacitor line disposed on the first substrate, and between the first substrate and the connection portion of the pixel electrode;
- a first capacitor electrode disposed on the first substrate substantially in a nonsymmetrical shape in a plan view, the first capacitor electrode overlapping the pixel electrode;
- a second capacitor electrode disposed on the first substrate, overlapping the first capacitor electrode and electrically connected to the capacitor line;
- an insulating layer including a first contact hole, and a second contact hole, the insulating layer disposed between the switch element and the pixel electrode, and between the first capacitor electrode and the pixel electrode;
- a second substrate;
- and
- a common electrode disposed on the second substrate, and comprising a first opening pattern and a second opening pattern disposed overlapping the first portion and the second portion of the pixel electrode, respectively,
- wherein the pixel electrode is electrically connected to a terminal of the switch element through the first contact hole and to the first capacitor electrode through the second contact hole.
