A reflective type liquid crystal display device includes: first and second
substrates facing each other and having a transmissive portion and a
reflective portion; a first polarizing plate on an outer surface of the
first substrate; a transparent electrode over an inner surface of the
first substrate; a reflective electrode having an open portion
corresponding to the transmissive portion; a retardation film on an outer
surface of the second substrate, the retardation film including a first
portion having a first retardation value and a second portion having a
second retardation value different from the first retardation value; a
second polarizing plate on the retardation film; a common electrode on an
inner surface of the second substrate; and a liquid crystal layer between
the first and second substrates.
