I have Iiyama Prolite monitor and didn't have any monitor calibration hardware until a month ago, when I finally got the Pantone Huey (for about a hundred euros).

So what exactly changed? After the calibration the color tone became a bit warmer and less saturated. These are really subtle differences and one wouldn't have noticed anything wrong on the pictures before as well. The other thing Huey does though is that it constantly monitores the room lightning conditions and changes the monitor brightness accordingly. I find this very helpful, since I work on the photos often late in the night, when there is no ambient light from the windows and only one lightsource in the room. Before I got Huey the photos I processes late in the night often were a bit dark and over saturated. In this I see now an improvement.
