Claim 16:
17. A display device comprising:
a display panel including a plurality of pixels; and
a display panel driver which determines an operation mode based on a temperature of the display panel and a grayscale value of input image data as a first operation mode or a second operation mode, applies a first scale factor to the input image data in the first operation mode, applies a second scale factor different from the first scale factor to the input image data in the second operation mode, and drives the display panel,
wherein the first scale factor is determined based on a first grayscale scale factor and a first temperature scale factor, and the second scale factor is determined based on a second grayscale scale factor and a second temperature scale factor, and
wherein the display panel driver operates as the first operation mode when a number of pixels which display the grayscale value less than or equal to a first reference grayscale value, among the plurality of pixels, is greater than a first reference number.
