Hi @Biene - I know how frustrating this is. Here is a link to a rather lengthy thread. There’s lots of interesting detail in here. It might get you started toward a solution… or not. We sometimes have little or no control over how our images are displayed, depending on the app or browser or screen type.

Hi Sooz, thank you for your answer. I followed the thread from the beginning, but it seems that this didn´t help me

Does the colour picker on each device show the same colour values?

If you Export the images to .png and view them on each device, do they show that same difference?

What if you transfer them to another device such as another computer, if you have one available?

The laptop seems to have some kind of non-linear response compared to the tablet. Are you using the standard 8-bit RGB/A default profile?

Whatever your answers or comments, I won’t be able to help because this entire subject is mystery to me. Your answers may give other people ideas about what may be happening.

Hi @Biene

As I mentioned before, the answer is the difference in the color gamut range as I noticed your tablet screen colors are more vibrant than your laptop.

XP Pen : 100% sRGB
Lenovo ideapad C340 : 57.3% SRGB

So, your laptop screen only has about half the color of the XP pen.
And yes, it can’t be fixed. As you know XP pens are made for drawing and the high color gamut display is one of the features that makes them attractive to artists.

As for laptops, not all of them are made for artists (Design, drawing, etc.) and bright colors are not the main feature so not all of them have high color gamut screens, especially low and mid-range laptops.

The solution is to either buy a new laptop made to design or always refer to the colors on the XP pen as it is more accurate than your laptop screen.

Thank you @AhabGreybeard I have the same by exporting to png, my acer laptop shows also the same. My Phone shows the colors of the Tablet.
@Arclamb Thank you for your answer. Fixing by buying a new laptop is at this time not my solution.
I thought i had to adjust my tablet colors on the laptop before exporting, but it seems that i should take my tablet colors. Thank you.
