: Why is the color of the same image different when displayed on laptop and mobile device I have created a banner with a pink background (so I thought) on my laptop. When I viewed the same

@Yeniel278

Okay, so here is the thing I've learned from working in a room filled with screens from the same brand:

No two screens are usually identical, when it comes to color.

Normally, you'd have to adjust your screen colors manually, to get the "right" colors. Your average user will probably use the default settings and the ones who do choose to calibrate will typically do so with different settings, so one with a higher brightness, the other with less saturation, and so on

Such is also the case on other devices. Usually, you won't get the exact same result you were seeing while designing, being perfectly the same on all other devices.

The problem is that there are many factors that can make your image look different from the screen you designed it on (brightness, calibration, light from the environment). However you can sometimes avoid your image being interpreted with the wrong profile, by making sure that the right profile is actually embedded to your image. Check Embed Color Profile when saving.

On the one hand there is the issue of the profile. Your Phone/Tablet is probably using a different Profile than your laptop. On the other hand you'll always get different results in color on different screens, regardless of the profiles installed.

Best chances to get similar results on different machines is to use Websafe Colors i guess.
hope this helps!
