A display device includes a display panel including a plurality of pixels arranged in a pentile pattern, the plurality of pixels having at least a first pixel and a second pixel adjacent to the first pixel, and the display panel being configured to display colors corresponding to respective output color data of the first and second pixels, and a color data converter configured to convert input color data to generate the output color data, the color data converter including a determiner configured to receive the input color data, to determine whether the first pixel displays a white color and the second pixel displays a black color, and to generate a first determination signal based on a result of the determination, and an adjustment unit configured to adjust the output color data of the first or second pixel based on the first determination signal.

Display device and method of driving the display device

A display device includes a light sensor, a controller, a data driver, and a scan driver. The controller is configured to correct an input image signal based on an electrical signal output by the light sensor and an input image signal, the controller includes: a first color coordinate calculation unit configured to calculate a color coordinate of reflected light; a second color coordinate calculation unit configured to calculate a color coordinate of dark room output light for at least two grayscale value sections; a combination unit configured to combine the reflected light color coordinate and the dark room output light color coordinate together; and a gamma value setting unit configured to set a gamma value based on a deviation between the combination light color coordinate output by the combination unit and a reference color coordinate.
