1. A display panel, comprising:
a first substrate and a second substrate overlapping with the first substrate;
a liquid crystal layer, a pixel electrode and a common electrode located between the first substrate and the second substrate, and the pixel electrode comprising:
a trunk portion extending along a first direction;
a first branch portion and a second branch portion, connected to a first end of the trunk portion, and extending toward a first tilt direction and a second tilt direction respectively;
a third branch portion and a fourth branch portion, connected to a second end of the trunk portion, and extending toward a third tilt direction and a fourth tilt direction respectively, wherein the trunk portion has a first slit and a second slit extending along the first direction, wherein the first slit is extending inward from the first end, and the second slit is extending inward from the second end, wherein the first slit and the second slit are aligned with a center of the trunk portion in the first direction;
first strip portions, connected to the first branch portion and the second branch portion, and extending along the first direction;
second strip portions, connected to the third branch portion and the fourth branch portion, and extending along the first direction;
third strip portions, connected to the first branch portion, the trunk portion and the third branch portion, and extending along a second direction, wherein the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction; and
fourth strip portions, connected to the second branch portion, the trunk portion and the fourth branch portion, and extending along the second direction;
a first polarizer located on the first substrate; and
a second polarizer located on the second substrate.
