A liquid-crystal display apparatus includes a plurality of rectangular pixels. Each pixel includes a first electrode and a second electrode. A slit region and a concave and convex portion are formed in the first electrode. It further includes a control circuit. The plurality of pixels are constituted of a first pixel group and a second pixel group. First data lines and for applying a voltage on the first electrode are provided closer to the first substrate than the first electrode. In each pixel that constitutes the first pixel group, a second data line extension extending from a second data line is provided adjacent to a first data line. In each pixel that constitutes the second pixel group, a first data line extension extending from the first data line is provided adjacent to the second data line.
