Anyway, with a narrower gamut a color that falls outside the range of colors the device can represented will be shifted and will become a different color. If you look at the mini's gamut, it is missing most of the saturated colors (towards the edges of the triangle), so colors will always be subdued, simply because the device is incapable of representing the more vivid section of the spectrum.

This can be clearly seen in the pictures posted in some other thread, where it is compared against the air - red and blue are specially poor on the mini, green not so much.
I was unaware of the iRetina Mini color problems.
My wife had suggested getting one for her.
