For best results, save all web images in sRGB color mode.

 

But keep in mind that color variation between devices is normal & expected. 

  • Hi-pixel density devices have more pixels and richer colors.
  • Devices may not be color calibrated the same way.
  • Devices may be using different browsers that manage colors inconsistently.
  • Some color brightness variation is inevitable between Mac/Windows/iOS.
