A LCD device includes a LC panel unit including TFT and counter substrates, and a backlight unit on which the LC panel unit is mounted. The backlight unit has a plurality of positioning ribs protruding from the backlight unit in the vicinity of the corners of the display panel for positioning the display panel. Some of the positioning ribs have a first positioning wall having a height larger than the height of the boundary between the TFT substrate and the counter substrate in a first display area in which the edge of the TFT substrate protrudes from the edge of the counter substrate. Others of the positioning ribs have a second positioning wall having a height lower than the height of the boundary between the TFT substrate and the counter substrate in a second display area in which the edge of the TFT substrate is flush with the edge of the counter substrate.
