Abstract
A transflective display apparatus and an operation method thereof are provided. The transflective display apparatus includes a transflective display panel and a backlight module. The transflective display panel includes a plurality of pixels. Each pixel includes a plurality of sub-pixels with different colors. Each sub-pixel includes a transparent area and a reflective area. The operation method includes: determining whether the transflective display apparatus is operated in a reflective mode or not; and driving, when the transflective display apparatus is determined being operated in the reflective mode, the transflective display panel by way of driving at least one of the plurality of sub-pixels in each pixel each time and turning off the backlight module, thereby facilitating the transflective display apparatus to display an image by using the reflective areas of the driven sub-pixels to reflect an ambient light of the transflective display apparatus.
