A liquid crystal display device comprises a first electrode substrate, a second electrode substrate arranged opposite to the first electrode substrate with a gap therebetween, a liquid crystal layer held between the first and second electrode substrates, and including transmissive display sections and reflective display sections adjacent to the transmissive display sections, a linear boundary being defined between each transmissive display section and each reflective display section, orientation of liquid crystal molecules in the transmissive display sections and the reflective display sections being controlled in accordance with voltages applied to the liquid crystal layer by the first and second electrode substrates, and a control section which controls an electric field generated by the applied voltages to set, substantially parallel to the boundary, the orientation of those of the liquid crystal molecules which exist in the transmissive display sections near the boundary.
