Abstract: Each picture element includes first and second sub-picture elements, each of which includes a liquid crystal capacitor and at least one storage capacitor. After a display voltage representing a certain grayscale level has been applied to the respective sub-picture element electrodes of the first and second sub-picture elements, a voltage difference ?V? is produced between voltages to be applied to the respective liquid crystal capacitors of the first and second sub-picture elements by way of their associated storage capacitor(s). By setting the voltage difference ?V? value of the blue and/or cyan picture element(s) to be smaller than that of the other color picture elements, shift toward the yellow range at an oblique viewing angle can be minimized.

Accordingly, the liquid crystal display device (100) performs stereoscopic display with suppressed display unevenness.

Abstract: It is possible to implement impulse display in a hold type display device while suppressing an increase in complexity of a drive circuit and an increase in operation frequency.
