According to one embodiment, a display device includes first, second, and third interconnects, switch elements, pixel electrodes, a display layer, first, and second color filters, and a controller. The first interconnects extend in a first direction and are arranged in a second direction. The second interconnects extend in the second direction and are arranged in the first direction. The switch elements are electrically connected to the first and second interconnects. The pixel electrodes are electrically connected to the switch elements. The third interconnects extend in the second direction and are arranged in the first direction. The display layer performs an optical operation of light emission or a change of an optical characteristic. The first color filters are of a first color. The second color filters of a second color have a higher visibility than the first color. The controller is electrically connected to the first, second, and third interconnects.
