sRGB
sRGB is the standard color space for the web, covering about 35% of the visible spectrum. It was created by HP and Microsoft in 1996 and is the default color space for most digital content — web images, JPEGs, and most consumer displays target sRGB. 95-100% sRGB coverage is the baseline for accurate web and photo content. Most budget monitors cover 60-70% sRGB, which looks washed out for color-critical work.
