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: Nix Mini 3 & Ugreen Earphone Case - Just wanted to share some valuable information if anyone is involved in the Nix Mini 3 and a protective case. Ive used a nix colour sensor before and this Mini 3 is a great improvement on older generations inc the app features and general use-ability. I mainly use the sensor in the Construction Industry/Surveying/Project Management sector. Really works a treat and the improvements to the device and app are very welcome and make the process incredibly easy and professional and more importantly, accurate!! I pay for the premium Paint subscription for RAL collections. Which again, helps tremendously and i can save and share the collected data / scanned colours. I also bought and would totally recommend a protective case to put the NIx Mini 3,.. (My Choice was the Ugreen Earphone Case.) The Nix Mini 3 is a calibrated small device, so a “Hard Shell” type which i have used before for other items , and found it again, to be perfect for the Job. I still carry RALL Swatch cards like the K5 for Gloss & Semi Matt samples and they can be great as a confirmation on site, But to be completely honest,….they are Not needed anymore as I have found the accuracy of the Mini 3 absolutely Spot On.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bang on!
*by R***H on 20 September 2023*

I had an office to decorate. Multiple different colours across different areas. I bought this to help identify the colours, hoping it would get me a close match. I had a play with it by scanning the drips on the side of an old can of paint. It read the colour exactly! This has become an invaluable little tool for me. Far exceeded my expectations at this price point. Very extensive library of different paint brands too. For a little over the price of a Dulux fan deck and much cheaper than the Dulux branded scanner which looks identical, this is highly recommended.
