It is an object of the present invention to provide a display device equipped with a display panel that is provided with a photo-detection section with improved accuracy of detecting a touch position. A display panel (11) of an organic EL display device (10) includes a photo-detection section (40) that detects reflected light when a screen is touched by a finger or the like. The photo-detection section (40) includes a photodiode (41) that receives the reflected light, and an output amplifier (42) that outputs an output voltage corresponding to the amount of the received light. If an a-Si diode is used for such a photodiode (41), a sufficiently large signal difference in sensitivity between the bright state and the dark state can be achieved. Also, if a p-Si amplifier is used for the output amplifier (42), the output voltage becomes the saturation voltage at the time of read-out. This allows the p-Si amplifier to directly output the large sensitivity difference detected by the a-Si diode as a large difference in the output voltage.
