Abstract

Provided is a display device that is thin in its entirety and has a high contrast. The display device according to the present invention includes an array substrate provided with multiple pixels in array, and a counter substrate oppositely disposed above the array substrate with a liquid crystal layer interposed between the counter substrate and the array substrate. The counter substrate includes a touch sensor wiring pattern disposed in such a manner that at least part of the touch sensor wiring pattern is not parallel or orthogonal to a first polarization axis of polarization light incident on the liquid crystal layer from close to the array substrate. The counter substrate also includes a polarization layer closer to the liquid crystal layer than to the touch sensor wiring pattern, having a second polarization axis with an angle of 0 degrees or 90 degrees with respect to the first polarization axis.
