I'm not sure if your doing post in photoshop but also check your colour settings (Working spaces, colour management policies). I have been stung with that in the past when opening up a file using a different colour management profile, accidentally changing the profile without me noticing and wondering why all my images look like garbage. It's one of those things where it will look fine in photoshop but can look awful on another device that might not have that colour profile.
There's also the old Max/ vray gamma settings that used to drive me mad, but if your renders are looking the same one your computer I doubt it's that, I'm not even sure if it's even an issue anymore?
I used to have a standard non calibrated Dell monitor that I would check all my images on, most end clients would be using something rubbish so for my own sanity I would make sure it looked good on that and my calibrated one, although I just check on my phone now like others have suggested.
