According to one embodiment, a display device includes a plurality of gate lines, a plurality of data lines intersecting with the gate lines, a plurality of pixel electrodes, and a sensor drive controller which includes a plurality of common electrodes facing the pixel electrodes and detects a touch by controlling the common electrodes. The sensor drive controller selects at least one of the common electrodes, and supplies a sensor signal to the selected common electrode to set the selected common electrode to a sensing state. The sensor drive controller sets at least the common electrode adjacent to the common electrode set to the sensing state to a guard state and sets the other common electrodes to a floating state.
