In view of this, in the liquid crystal display device of a portable telephone device, a flexible connection substrate is used to integrally form first and second liquid crystal display parts with a driver circuit shared therebetween. The first liquid crystal display part is connected to the flexible connection substrate to which the second liquid crystal display part is connected. The second liquid crystal display device is formed by adding the flexible connection substrate to the first liquid crystal display part, and both are driven by the driver circuit. Not only an alternative display but also simultaneous displays can be selectively performed.
