To simply get the value

document.getElementById("favcolor").value;

You can add an event listener if you want to get the color when the selection changes. You’d do something like this:

var theInput = document.getElementById("favcolor");

theInput.addEventListener("input", function(){
  var theColor = theInput.value;
  
  // Do something with `theColor` here.
}, false);
<input id="favcolor" type="color"/>

Here’s a working JSFiddle.

We can simply assign the color value to the label.

Sample code is here

<label id ="colorVal">Select color</label>
<input type="color" id ='color'>Value</input>

JS Code

let colorInput = document.getElementById('color');


colorInput.addEventListener('input', () =>{
document.getElementById('colorVal').innerHTML = colorInput.value;
});
