Review: Great for accurate colour swatch - I’ve been using this colour sensor for a few weeks now, and it’s honestly impressive how accurate and quick it is. I used it to match a wall colour that was painted years ago, and it found the closest brand match instantly — something I couldn’t do by eye or even with paint chips. The fact that it supports over 200,000 brand-name paints and gives digital values like RGB, HEX, CMYK, and more is a huge plus for both decorating and digital design projects. The design is compact, durable, and feels premium — no surprise it’s won design awards like the Red Dot. I also appreciate that it’s USB-C rechargeable and works well with Bluetooth. The app interface is straightforward, and the Nix Toolkit makes it easy to navigate between paint libraries and digital colour values. That said, the calibration tile might be needed if you're seeing colour drift, and results can vary a bit depending on your phone’s screen brightness or settings. Also, it’s best for full wall or surface scans — not for tiny touch-ups, as colour matching in isolated areas isn’t always perfect. Pros: Lightning-fast and very accurate colour matching Supports major global paint brands (Behr, Sherwin-Williams, etc.) Gives instant digital colour codes (RGB, HEX, etc.) Great design – portable, rechargeable, and durable Professional-level results with minimal effort Cons: Paint libraries may vary by country or region Not ideal for touch-up jobs on small patches Paid subscription required for Pantone, RAL, and NCS databases Calibration tile may be needed if accuracy drifts over time All in all, this is a game-changer for designers, decorators, or anyone wanting perfect colour matching. It’s faster and more precise than any method I’ve tried before — highly recommended if you’re serious about colour accuracy. Review: Pleased with my purchase. - Works well from the few times I have used it. Seems to be accurate. ## Features - Troubleshooting Use Calibration Tile If There Is A Drift In Color Accuracy Screen Brightness And Settings Impact How The Color Will Appear On Your Device First Party Support And Compatibility Is Only Available With Android And Ios Devices - Award Winning Design Multi Year German Design And Red Dot Design Award Winners Professionally Reviewed And Endorsed By Cnet As The Top Choice For Paint Colour Sensors - Faster Than The Human Eye Scan Any Object Or Surface To Instantly Match To 200 000 Brand Name Paints Not Just For Paint Instant Rgb Hex Cmyk And More Digital Colour Values Match To Pantone Ral And Ncs Premium Databases With A Paid Subscription - Precision Palette: Globally Recognized Match To Top Paint Brands Including Benjamin Moore Behr Ppg Valspar Sherwin Williams And More Paint Libraries Vary By Country Region Explore The 'Nix Toolkit App' To Verify Your Preferred Paint Brand And Library Is Offered Note: Not Recommended For Touch Jobs Paint The Entire Wall Or Surface Edge To Edge For Consistent Results - Durable Rechargeable And Portable Design Connect With Bluetooth Scan Instantly With No Calibration Required Dust And Water Resistance Usb C Rechargeable Lithium Battery ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0BGQMYJLS | | Brand | Nix | | Brand Name | Nix | | Colour | Detects and matches a wide range of colors | | Container Type | Box | | Country of Origin | Canada | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 788 Reviews | | Dry Time In Hours | 4 | | Included Components | Diagnostic Tile, Lanyard Nix, Soft USB-C Cable | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Is Waterproof | False | | Item Form | Liquid | | Item Volume | 0.15 Kilograms | | Item volume | 0.15 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Nix Sensor Ltd. | | Model Name | Nix Mini 3 | | Model Number | NIXMINI003 | | Part Number | NIXMINI003 | | Size | 1 count (Pack of 1) | | Special Features | Weather Resistant | | Special feature | Weather Resistant | | Specific Uses For Product | Interior/Exterior | | Specific uses for product | Interior/Exterior | | Surface Recommendation | Interior/Exterior | | UPC | 674650000033 | | Water Resistance Level | Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Nix - **Connectivity technology:** Bluetooth - **Maximum Supported Paper Size:** A3+ - **Model name:** Nix Mini 3 - **Number of Packs:** 1 - **Number of items:** 1 - **Power source:** Battery Powered - **UPC:** 674650000033 - **Unit count:** 1.0 count ## Images ![Nix Mini 3 Color Sensor - Paint Color Matching, CMYK, RGB, HEX. - Real-Life eyedropper Tool - for Painters, Graphic Designers, and More. - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61n8o276WHL.jpg) ![Nix Mini 3 Color Sensor - Paint Color Matching, CMYK, RGB, HEX. - Real-Life eyedropper Tool - for Painters, Graphic Designers, and More. - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71F5B7JVXKL.jpg) ![Nix Mini 3 Color Sensor - Paint Color Matching, CMYK, RGB, HEX. - Real-Life eyedropper Tool - for Painters, Graphic Designers, and More. - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81uY4-ATytL.jpg) ![Nix Mini 3 Color Sensor - Paint Color Matching, CMYK, RGB, HEX. - Real-Life eyedropper Tool - for Painters, Graphic Designers, and More. - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71xnCN4AWhL.jpg) ![Nix Mini 3 Color Sensor - Paint Color Matching, CMYK, RGB, HEX. - Real-Life eyedropper Tool - for Painters, Graphic Designers, and More. - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91uuFN6MVXL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: How to get started?** A: 1.)
