Abstract
To provide a liquid crystal display device capable of outputting a sound of a sufficiently large volume by use of a liquid crystal cell which displays an image. A liquid crystal display device includes a thin front glass substrate having an outer surface in which a rib is formed on a peripheral portion, a back glass substrate arranged with a predetermined gap from an inner surface of the front glass substrate, in which liquid crystal is sealed in the gap, and a sound source element provided in contact with the front glass substrate.
