1. A display device comprising:
a plurality of pixels;
switching elements including a first switching element and a second switching element, and located in the plurality of pixels;
signal lines electrically connected to the switching elements;
pixel electrodes including a first pixel electrode electrically connected to the first switching element in a first contact portion and a second pixel electrode electrically connected to the second switching element in a second contact portion;
a common electrode opposed to the first pixel electrode and the second pixel electrode; and
a metal wiring parallel to one of the signal lines;
wherein
the common electrode includes a slit that extends in an extending direction of the signal line and overlaps one of the signal lines, and a first opening where the first contact portion and the second contact portion are located, and
the metal wiring is in direct contact with the common electrode and is located to not overlap the first opening and to not overlap an edge of the common electrode.
