Electronic device versions of the neural functions of the human retina have high potential for use in artificial vision. This study demonstrates halide perovskite artificial human photoreceptors with specific photoresponses to red, green, and blue colors, which are consistent with human retinal photoreceiving cones and rods. In contrast to the current programmable spectral‐response technologies, a novel microcavity structure is combined in this study with a perovskite absorber to achieve a targeted spectrum without using external optical filters. The fabricated artificial photoreceptors exhibit excellent performance including a high detectivity of more than 10 13 Jones, a large linear dynamic range of 154 dB, and a short response time of 580 ns. These values are equal to or better than those of the natural human retina. These devices can easily be monolithically integrated on a single flexible substrate by using vacuum deposition, and a true proof‐of‐concept full‐color image reconstruction is demonstrated.
