Title: Useless after a few years
Product review: When it was new, it worked fine. I used it to calibrate my computer and 2 TVs with satisfactory results.However, be aware that the device will age and drift rapidly, renders it pretty much useless after 2-3 years. Mine from about 3.5 years ago has drifted so far out of spec that calibration done using it have extremely obvious color flaws. If your monitor came this way you would've returned it, trust me, it's that bad.Had I known that this device have such short life span, I would've never made the purchase. $150 is NOT cheap for a one time use device.Researching further on avsforum's display calibration section, you can correct the drift somewhat if you have access to a more expensive spectrometer.My Harbor Freight tool costs significantly less, and lasts significantly longer. Shame on your X-Rite.
