From the brand

Nix Sensor in the beginning

With Nix, professionals who work with color are empowered with fast, reliable accuracy. Fan decks and eyeballing color are no more.

The idea for Nix came in the form of a question: why are interior designers still carrying around tote bags filled with heavy fan decks and swatch books from individual brands? Why were professionals still eyeballing color?

After our initial funding and countless prototypes later, the final Nix prototype was born. It was through our successful Kickstarter campaign that we were able to fund the production of the first Nix Color Sensor.

Good for a cheap digital color id option.
More accuracy will cost a lot more so I’m happy with the level this unit provides.

First Impression of the Mini 3

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 8, 2023

Style: Nix Mini 3Verified Purchase

First nix I have owned, had the color muse and that started off ok, but eventually it just was not getting close. For the nix mini 3, I did about 15 tests with a Benjamin Moore Color Preview fan deck, selected all the color collection that had listed for Benjamin Moore, out of the 15 tests, it nailed 14 of them, the one it did not, it was listed 2nd. So it's early, but impressed. I also measured my wall which I had painted several years ago with a color called Soft-Fern by Benjamin Moore and it nailed it on the first time. I will try and update my review as time goes on. I did not see any other mini 3 reviews as of this writing.

Need to see multiple paint libraries at once

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 1, 2023

Style: Nix Mini 2Verified Purchase

This product is a great idea with three execution issues. I give it three stars because outside of some narrow use cases, it's not a lot better than using color chips or taking a piece of the existing paint and having the paint shop scan it.

First, the biggest issue I have run into is that when you are using this as a tool to do touchups, you don't really care whose paint library you are using. You only care that the color is as close as possible. And when I've been at the paint counter, hardware stores seem to have no difficulty translating paint codes from manufacturers they don't sell. The Nix software, for whatever reason (memory limitations? licensing restrictions?), does not support searching across libraries. Which means your "nearest match" process might be done several times.

Second, this sensor really struggles with reflective surfaces. When you are trying to match a paint to some shiny non-paint object, the Nix kicks out samples that don't look very close to where you started. I can only attribute this to glare (or flare) inside the unit.

Finally, where you are matching to a multicolored object (say a flashed brick or a patterned fabric), it would be nice to have an averaging feature to capture any bias from particular placement of the sensor. Averaging might also be helpful for matching single-color paint - because the presence of room light can have a small but real effect on what the sensor returns (in other words, the sensor is not totally light-tight, it would seem).

Awesome color matching

… with a library of paint colors for several brands of paint. Measure the sample, and the app shows you the sample against the closest paint colors. Very intuitive.

It identifies color - is it accurate? who knows

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 16, 2022

Style: Nix Mini 2Verified Purchase

I bought two of these little guys, one for my mom who is an artist and one for myself as I dabble in art and other paints. I was hoping it could be used on portraits or pictures to identify colors but not so much. Sure it identifies some color but the color you are scanning has to be solid, anything mixed and you get terrible results that are not quite close to what you scanned. Even sometimes scanning something like a banana will give you an orange color when the banana is yellow, so there's some refining that needs to be done in how the color is identified.

The app (Nix Paints) also needs some work. You have to choose "color libraries" which are mainly just mainstream paint companies like Behr, Benjamin Moore, ColourFal, Valspar, (Home Depot) DoIt Best, etc. The paint libraries are all house-paint based. You can also only select a few libraries once you connect your Nix to the app. So when you are scanning a color it's only searching the selected libraries and not all libraries the app has access to. If the library part was removed and all colors were searched when a color is scanned, that would be nice. There's also a part of the app for "Digital Color Values" but that part of the App has been broken since I bought this Nix months ago. If you try to access that part of the App you'll land on a screen from Google Play that says "Something went wrong, Try again". You can try all you want but it doesn't look like that part of the App has been built out. Digital color values is one of the main things I was going for when I bought this and that doesn't even work.

I would not buy this again (mom said the same thing!).
