 Very Disapppointing November 14, 2009
Joel A. Glovier (Pittsburgh, PA)
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.
 Great tool October 30, 2009

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.
Pantone Huey is bad calibrator October 26, 2009

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.

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.

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.
