1. A display apparatus comprising:
a substrate;
a first display area on the substrate;
main subpixels at the first display area;
a second display area on the substrate; and
a basic unit at the second display area, the basic unit comprising auxiliary subpixels and a transmission portion,
wherein a pixel layout of the auxiliary subpixels is different from a pixel layout of the main subpixels,
wherein a size of a light-emission area of a first auxiliary subpixel among the auxiliary subpixels is greater than a size of a light-emission area of a first main subpixel among the main subpixels, the first main subpixel representing the same color as that of the first auxiliary subpixel,
wherein the main subpixels are arranged in a pentile matrix structure, and the auxiliary subpixels are arranged in an S-stripe structure,
wherein the main subpixels include red sub-pixels, green sub-pixels, and blue sub-pixels,
wherein, from among four vertexes of an imaginary quadrangle having a green main subpixel as a center point, red main sub-pixels are disposed at first and third vertices disposed diagonally, and blue main subpixels are disposed at remaining vertices,
wherein the area of the S-stripe structure of the auxiliary subpixels of the basic unit is about ⅓ the area of the transmission portion of the basic unit, and
wherein a corresponding unit at the first display area that has the same sized area as that of the basic unit at the second display area comprises a plurality of the main subpixels arranged in a plurality of the imaginary quadrangle, so that a sum of light-emitting areas of the S-stripe structure of the auxiliary subpixels of the basic unit is about 0.5 to 1 times a sum of light-emitting areas of the main subpixels of the plurality of the imaginary quadrangle in the corresponding unit at the first display area.
