A display device includes: a display panel having a front surface and a back surface and displaying an image on the front surface; a plurality of detection electrodes overlapping the display panel when seen in a plan view; and a shield electrode overlapping the display panel when seen in a plan view. The shield electrode is arranged on a side opposite to a side of the front surface with respect to the plurality of detection electrodes. Based on electrostatic capacitance of the shield electrode, proximity or contact of an object to the front surface is detected, and based on electrostatic capacitance of each of the plurality of detection electrodes, a position of the object is detected.
