In an array substrate and a display apparatus, a gate line receives a gate pulse during a present 1H period and a data line receives a pixel voltage having a polarity inverted at every frame. When a thin film transistor is turned on in response to the gate pulse during the present 1H period, a pixel electrode receives the pixel voltage through the thin film transistor during the present 1H period. A pre-charging part pre-charges the pixel electrode to a common voltage that is a reference voltage of the pixel voltage in response to a previous gate pulse during a previous 1H period.
