A transflective LCD is a type of liquid crystal display that combines transmissive and reflective properties, ensuring good readability both in dark environments and under bright sunlight. It uses a transflective layer behind the matrix that partially reflects ambient light (like a reflective LCD) and partially transmits backlight (like a transmissive LCD).
This hybrid design allows the screen to use ambient light to improve contrast outdoors while relying on backlighting indoors or in low-light conditions. Transflective displays are energy-efficient and ideal for mobile, outdoor, military, navigation, and industrial HMI applications where all-light-condition visibility is critical.
