According to one embodiment, an apparatus includes an active area including a matrix of pixels, and a light-shielding area surrounding the active area. The apparatus includes a first substrate including a pixel electrode formed for each pixel, a switch including a semiconductor layer to switch write of a video signal to the pixel electrode, and a auxiliary capacitance line opposing the semiconductor layer to form an auxiliary capacitance, a second substrate including a counter-electrode extending from the active area to the light-shielding area, and a liquid crystal layer held between the first and the second substrate, Each of the pixel electrodes of end portion pixels formed in two end portions of the active area extends from the active area to the light-shielding area such that the pixel electrode becomes larger than others, and the auxiliary capacitance formed in the end portion pixel is greater than that formed in others.
