Abstract
A liquid crystal display includes: a first substrate; a pixel electrode on the first substrate and including a first subpixel electrode and a second subpixel electrode which are separated from each other; a second substrate facing the first substrate; a common electrode on the second substrate; and a liquid crystal layer between the first substrate and the second substrate, in which the first subpixel electrode includes a first plate-shaped portion and a plurality of first branch electrodes extended from the first plate-shaped portion, the second subpixel electrode includes a second plate-shaped portion surrounds the first branch electrodes and a plurality of second branch electrodes extended from the second plate-shaped portion, and a difference between a first voltage applied to the first subpixel electrode and a common voltage applied to the common electrode is larger than a difference between a second voltage applied to the second subpixel electrode and the common voltage.
