A color filter includes a red filter segment, a green filter segment and a blue filter segment, on a substrate, wherein when a pseudo-white LED is used, an area of a triangle defined by three chromaticity points of the red, green and blue filter segments expressed as (xR, yR), (xG, yG) and (xB, yB) on the x-y chromaticity diagram occupies 72% or more of an area standard triangle defined by defined by 3 points of red (0.67, 0.33), green (0.21, 0.71) and blue (0.14, 0.08), and the color filter has a color temperature of 6000K or more. Each of the red, green and blue filter segments has a thickness of 3.3 μm or less. A liquid crystal display device includes such color filter and the pseudo-white LED.
