A liquid crystal medium and a liquid crystal display including the same are provided. The present invention relates to a liquid crystal medium having a nematic phase and a dielectric anisotropy (Δε) of 0.5 or more, A dielectric constant (ε ⊥ ) in the range of 2 to 8 perpendicular to the director, and at the same time a dielectric ratio of 1.0 or more of the dielectric constant (ε ⊥ ) perpendicular to the director relative to the dielectric anisotropy (Δε) (ε ⊥ / Δε) or die perpendicular to the director 8 or more dielectric constant, (ε ⊥), and 26 following dielectric anisotropy ([Delta] [epsilon]) A liquid crystal medium having any one of the above (preferably including at least one compound having a high dielectric constant (ε ⊥ ) and a high average dielectric constant (ε av. ) Orthogonal to the director) When, The use of liquid crystal media in electro-optic displays, in particular active matrix displays based on the IPS or FFS effect; This type of display containing this type of liquid crystal medium, and It relates to the use of a compound of formula I to improve the transmission and response time of a liquid crystal medium comprising one or more additional mesogenic compounds.
