Pantone hueyPRO Colorimeter Review
Review Summary
Reader Score: 10.00 (out of 10)
Review (Summary): "The main claim to the new huey's 'Pro' label is its ability to allow the user to choose the target color temperature and gamma. The original huey only offers preset gamma and white point. You can now select these independently in the huey Pro software. There is also a greater choice of calibration update reminder intervals. These improvements are undoubtedly welcome, but the question most potential customers will be asking is: with a cost of almost half as much again, is the Pro worth it over the standard model?

... unless you really need to use unusual white point and gamma settings, there is no great difference in the performance of the cheaper original huey and the Pro version. ..."

Review (Summary): "The Huey Pro is designed by Pantone with cooperation from X-Rite, the makers of pro level color management devices and software, and uses a colorimeter to measure color values and luminance of both your computer display and to a degree, your ambient light ...

... Pantone took a good product and made some important changes with the Huey Pro. The original version is still available, but I recommend the Pro model for the higher quality profiles and multiple monitor support. Current Huey owners can upgrade for about $40. ..."

Review (Summary): "It can create a monitor profile and doubles as an ambient light monitor, too. Pantone has an inexpensive solution to monitor profiling called the huey (a playful extension of the word "hue"). And they've recently bulked up the software with the new hueyPRO. We took the hueyPRO for a spin this week...

... The Pantone hueyPRO makes it affordable and easy to calibrate and profile your monitor, a good solution for the amateur photographer with multiple monitors who may not have the additional cash to go with a higher-end solution like the ColorVision Spyder2 Pro. ..."
