X-Rite Announces ColorMunki Smile

Wednesday 19. September 2012 - New entry-level color calibration solution provides simple monitor calibration

X-Rite, Incorporated, the world leader in color management, measurement and communication technologies, announces a new addition to the ColorMunki family of color calibration solutions – the ColorMunki Smile. Ideal for photo hobbyists, design enthusiasts, gamers and anyone looking for the easiest way to color correct their computer monitors, ColorMunki Smile offers a simple and affordable option.
ColorMunki Smile includes a color measurement device and very simple software. Thanks to a wizard-based user interface that uses graphics and video animation, users simply follow the on-screen instructions for a quick and easy calibration process. Users don’t need to know anything about color science to get good quality results with the ColorMunki Smile.
“ColorMunki Smile features advanced color measurement technologies that X-Rite is known for while providing beginner color enthusiasts with an easy-to-use solution for calibrating monitors,” said Thomas Kunz, X-Rite’s Market Manager, Imaging. “With the introduction of ColorMunki Smile, users can be sure that their monitors always accurately display the true colors of their photographs, videos, games and web browsing experiences.”
Using the same color technology as X-Rite’s professional-level color calibration products, ColorMunki Smile provides color accuracy on commonly used LED and LCD displays.
Users can also calibrate multiple monitors to accurately show colors. ColorMunki Smile automatically detects when multiple monitors are connected to a single Mac or PC computer and allows users to color correct each one.
ColorMunki Smile is available now from X-Rite (North America) and Pantone online stores and also from the company’s worldwide network of resellers for an MSRP of $99. ColorMunki Smile includes a colorimeter with counterweight, ColorMunki Smile software for calibrating monitors, and Quick Start Guide.
