An exemplary fringe field switching liquid crystal display device (3) includes a first substrate (310) and a second substrate (320) disposed parallel to each other and spaced apart a predetermined distance. A liquid crystal layer (300) is interposed between the first and second substrates. A plurality of gate lines (332) and data lines (331) are formed on the second substrate, thereby defining a plurality of pixel regions. A common electrode (321) is arranged in each pixel region. And a pixel electrode (323) is arranged in each pixel region and insulated from the common electrode, the pixel electrode including a plurality of slits (350) arranged therein. The slits are separate from each other and maintain varied angles including oblique angles relative to the nearest gate lines.
