1. A display panel, comprising:
a plurality of data lines and a plurality of scanning lines,
wherein the plurality of data lines intersects with the plurality of scanning lines to define a plurality of pixel units arranged in an array, and the plurality of data lines are insulated from the plurality of scanning lines; and
wherein pixel electrodes of pixel units in at least part of the array comprise a plurality of first branch electrodes arranged in parallel;
along a direction of the plurality of scanning lines, each of the plurality of first branch electrodes comprises a plurality of first branch electrode segments connected sequentially, and an included angle between two adjacently connected first branch electrode segments of the plurality of first branch electrode segments is less than 180°;
wherein along the direction of the plurality of scanning lines, the display panel comprises a first area, a second area and a third area which are sequentially arranged, and the first area is an area closest to a viewer;
wherein each of pixel electrodes of pixel units in the second area and the third area comprise a plurality of first branch electrodes arranged in parallel;
along the direction of the plurality of scanning lines, each of the plurality of first branch electrodes comprises a plurality of first branch electrode segments sequentially connected; and
an included angle between two adjacently connected first branch electrode segments of the plurality of first branch electrode segments is less than 180°; and
wherein each of pixel electrodes of pixel units in the first area comprises M second branch electrodes sequentially arranged along a direction of the plurality of data lines;
along the direction of the plurality of data lines, second branch electrodes numbered from a first second branch electrode to a j-th second branch electrode are parallel; second branch electrodes numbered from a (j+1)-th second branch electrode to an M-th second branch electrode of the M second branch electrodes are parallel; and an included angle between the j-th second branch electrode and the (j+1)-th second branch electrode is less than 180°,
wherein M is a positive integer greater than 2, and j is a positive integer greater than 1 and less than (M−1).
