A display apparatus includes a first display panel with a plurality of first pixels, a second display panel facing the first display panel and having a plurality of second pixels, a light reflective polarizer, and a backlight unit. The light reflective polarizer is interposed between the first and second display panels to transmit light polarized in a first direction, and reflect light polarized in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction. The backlight unit is arranged proximate to the second display panel to supply light to the first and second display panels. The first display panel displays an image by using reflected ambient light, and the second display panel displays an image by using light from the backlight unit.
