A Fringe-Field Switching (FFS) mode liquid crystal display (LCD) panel with optimized designs of pixel areas and/or liquid crystal materials is provided. The FFS mode LCD panel includes an active-element array substrate with a plurality of pixel areas, an opposite substrate, and a liquid crystal layer. Each pixel area comprises a plurality of first common electrodes, a second common electrode between the pixel area and another horizontally adjacent pixel area, and a pixel electrode. The optical transmittance and homogeneity of the pixel area of the display panel are modified by manipulating the relative position of the electrodes in the pixel areas on the active-element array substrate and/or adopting specific parameters of liquid crystal materials in the liquid crystal layer of the display panel.
