1. A display device, comprising:
a first display panel having first liquid crystals held between substrates;
a second display panel having second liquid crystals held between substrates, an optimal driver voltage of the second liquid crystals being different from that of the first liquid crystals of the first display panel; and
a driver integrated circuit that selectively switches between a first driver signal and a second driver signal and supplies the selected driver signal in parallel to the first display panel and to the second display panel,
wherein the first driver signal has an optimal driver voltage for the first display panel and the second driver signal has an optimal driver voltage for the second display panel, and wherein the second display panel exhibits a single color display over its entire display area when the first driver signal is supplied in parallel to the first display panel and to the second display panel.
