It’s all about the color: Color in your photos. Color in your designs. And it all starts with accurate color on your screen. Photographers understand that a color-managed workflow is essential to obtain true color from capture, to edit, to print; but what you see on-screen is only as accurate as your display. Over time, the color performance of monitors changes – phosphors and liquid crystals fade, causing the display to drift into unknown colors. hueyPRO automatically brings back the true colors, so whether you are editing photos to print, sell or share with others, gaming or shopping on-line, you deserve to see the right color on your display. The hueyPRO delivers extensive controls in an affordable, easy-to-use solution designed to calibrate and profile all types of LCD and CRT displays. Each package includes an emission-only colorimeter with ambient measurement capabilities and intuitive software. Designed with the same advanced optical color sensors as the i1Display product family, hueyPRO’s optical sensors provide the same accurate on-screen color that used to only be available to professionals, PLUS automatically measures the ambient light within a room for precision calibration. Even after the calibration process, hueyPRO will observe the light falling on the display and apply your personal preferences for viewing accuracy, any time of day. hueyPRO INCLUDES hueyPRO colorimeter with USB power cord, hueyPRO device cradle, hueyPRO profiling software and Quick Start Guide. hueyPRO’s increased color accuracy combined with the ability to calibrate multiple monitors delivers the solution you need to accurately view your images. With its customizable white point and gamma combinations, enhanced LCD calibration and Advanced Help, the hueyPRO is the answer to your color needs.

Summary: Very Disapppointing
Comment: I recently purchased the Pantone Huey Pro, and was terribly dissatisfied.
I tried it first on my office PC at home, and after "Calibration" the results were just really bad. Everything was sort of more reddish/yellowish than before (you can toggle to compare).
At first I thought, well maybe my eyes are just off - used to the old bad color? So I pulled out some of my print work and held it up to the screen with both settings. The original setting was almost a perfect match and the Huey just looked very off.
So then I thought maybe it's just my home office monitor - maybe it was so well calibrated in the first place, Huey didn't know what to do with it? For the record I use a Gateway FPD2485W full HD 24" that I purchased from Best Buy almost 2 1/2 years ago now for a cool $650. It has built in calibration, which I really like, and when CS3 still had Adobe Gamma, I used that on it, too.
So to try a newer, less calibrated monitor thinking that perhaps the Huey would do better on it - I took it to my place of empoyment where I've been working for almost three months now. The monitor was purchased new for me there, and is an HP LP2475W. It does not have any built in calibration, so I thought perhaps the Huey would do better. Not so much.
Again the results were just not quite right - in fact I don't even think they were really better than how I had it. I wish I could say I had gotten some improvement, but quite honestly again when comparing a press printed piece with what was on screen - my own tweaking of the simple settings seemed to look better than Huey's.
I would stay away from the Pantone Huey Pro.

Summary: Great tool
Comment: I've been trying to calibrate a new LCD monitor for over a month, my pictures would not print right. The Huey Pro installed easily and in just a few minutes my monitor was calibrated properly.
There are no camera stores near my home, but I've learned that I can count on Amazon for great products and prices, and fast service.

Summary: Pantone Huey is bad calibrator
Comment: I don't recommend it!
Pantone Huey is very easy to use, but it give a very poor result!
I have compared three calibrators: Pantone Huey, Eye-One Display LT and Eye-One Pro.
Eye-One Display LT (~$150) and Eye-One Pro ($1000+) made the same result.
I recommend Eye-One Display LT.

Summary: Huey Pro
Comment: The product is great, Amazon takes a long time to ship items, however. It was slow and took longer than expected. The product was worth the wait, however.

Summary: Little black tint machine..
Comment: Since i bought this about a month ago it has given me nothing but trouble..
- Falls of the screen
- The whole screen gets a green tint when you calibrate.
- Pantone/x-rite support does not exist.
The only god thing about this buy was amazon, super fast delivery!:)
But, If youre looking at this, buy another calibrator.
