An object of the present invention is to provide a polycarbonate resin composition and a molded article, which are excellent in jet-blackness, image sharpness, impact resistance, scratch resistance owing to high hardness, flame retardancy and heat retention stability. The present invention provides a resin composition comprising a polycarbonate resin comprising a structural unit derived from a cyclic ether structure-containing dihydroxy compound and a coloring agent, which is a polycarbonate resin composition having an L* value of 6 or less as measured by the reflected light method of JIS K7105; and a molded article using the resin composition. The resin composition and the molded article of the present invention can be used over a wide range of fields allowing a product to be imparted with a high-grade appearance and a dignified impression.
