Nanofixit is a liquid screen protector. You wipe the screen with an alcohol pad, spread the liquid over it, and buff it, and the liquid dries into a thin glass-like layer. It is a real product: reviews describe it being sold in the Philippines and the Netherlands. Reviewers agree it goes on quickly and held up to light scratching, but the camera and radiation benefits are the company’s own claims, and the reviewers did not see a camera gain or could not test the radiation feature.

Is Nanofixit legit?
Yes, it is a real product with a real company behind it. The 2016 Tech Inspected scratch test post says NanoFixit is based in the Philippines and cites a 9H hardness certificate from DoST there. The B4men Dutch Nanofixit review covers the launch in the Netherlands, where three versions were on sale. The DAGeeks Nanofixit review is from January 2020 and says the reviewer was given a bottle for the review.
Before you pay, confirm that the seller is the company itself. The reviews name different buying routes at different times, so check the current one (see the buying section below).
What is in the kit and how do you apply it?
The B4men reviewer describes three steps. First, clean the screen with an alcohol wipe, which removes grease so the liquid sticks. Second, spread the liquid across the screen horizontally and vertically for about 30 seconds. Third, wait about 60 seconds and buff the screen with the cloth. The reviewer asked whether the wipe removes the oleophobic (fingerprint-resistant) coating, and the company’s answer was that it does not.
The DAGeeks reviewer says the whole formula spread across the screen in under a minute, and applied a second coat to be safe. The reviewer adds that even someone who is clumsy can apply it without much help. The Mobile Reviews Eh! guide left its test products for 48 hours to cure, as their instructions said. Check the instructions in your box for Nanofixit’s own wait time.
What does Nanofixit claim to do?
The company’s claims, as the reviews report them, are below. The right-hand column shows what the reviewers saw.
| Claim | Who reports it | What the reviewers found |
|---|---|---|
| Scratch resistance, 9H hardness | B4men; Tech Inspected | DAGeeks: no scratches on a phone over four months. B4men: a deep scratch appeared on the screen months later |
| Water repellent | DAGeeks | DAGeeks: “yep definitely” |
| Easy to apply | DAGeeks; B4men | Both describe a quick, simple process |
| Enhances camera resolution | DAGeeks lists it as a claim | DAGeeks did not see it in four months of use |
| Reduces radiation by up to 90% | B4men, citing SGS testing as the company’s basis | DAGeeks could not test it; see the radiation section below |
| Kills germs on the screen | B4men reports it as a company claim | Reported as a claim only |
| Works with curved screens and 3D Touch | B4men | The B4men reviewer prefers the liquid to glass on a curved phone, which they say does not sit well on curved edges |
Does Nanofixit actually protect the screen?
For everyday scratches, the two Nanofixit reviews point in opposite directions. DAGeeks’ reviewer kept the phone away from keys and loose change, took care of the screen, and reported no scratches over four months. B4men’s reviewer also tested it with keys and a utility knife, and a month later a small hairline crack appeared beside the speaker, not on the screen. By mid-March the reviewer had a deep scratch on the display and said they would probably go back to a glass screen protector.
The Mobile Reviews Eh! guide tested three other liquid products, not Nanofixit: Whoosh Diamond Defense, CrystalTech Nano 2.0 and Spigen GLAStR Nano Liquid. Its findings for the category are useful for judging the idea:
- Scratch tests: rocks, keys and knives left no marks on either side, and 320-grit sandpaper scratched both sides equally. The guide could not see a difference in scratch resistance.
- Oleophobic coating: the water-drop test showed no clear return of the fingerprint-resistant coating.
- Cracks: a liquid dot did not fill a crack in a cracked screen protector.
- Impact: a steel ball test broke a tempered film at about 9 to 10 inches. With the liquid on top, the same film broke at 16 inches.
So the short answer is yes for impact, a maybe for scratches, and no for filling cracks or restoring the factory coating.
Is the radiation claim proven?
The radiation figure is the company’s claim. B4men’s reviewer writes that the company pointed to SGS testing showing up to 90% radiation reduction. The reviewer says they were skeptical and had to take that on the company’s word, asking how a buyer could test it at home. DAGeeks’ reviewer said the same: they could not test the radiation feature.
If you want to judge a lab claim like this yourself, the preprints and peer review guide (our research library) explains what checks a study has passed. Ask the company for the full SGS report before you rely on the number.
What are the disadvantages of a nano screen protector?
- You cannot swap it out. The Mobile Reviews Eh! guide calls this the biggest drawback: once a liquid layer is damaged, you cannot remove it the way you would peel off a film, and scratches and cracks are permanent.
- It does not heal scratches or fill cracks. The guide’s own pros and cons list says it “doesn’t heal scratches and cracks.”
- The gain is hard to see. The guide’s cons list says “can’t see the improvements,” and DAGeeks did not see the camera gain.
- Glass still breaks. The guide says the layer is still glass, so a hard drop can still break it.
- Coverage after a year. The B4men reviewer says the company gives no performance guarantee after one year.
- Price. DAGeeks calls it “a bit pricey” for a screen protector at its 1,700 PHP list price.
- Not a standalone protector. The guide says it would not recommend liquid protectors as a stand-alone protection.
Is Nanofixit worth it? Who should buy it and who should skip it?
It fits a few buyers well. If you have many screens to protect, DAGeeks notes a bottle gives about 20 drops, and the Mobile Reviews Eh! guide says one package can cover a phone, tablet and watch. If you have a curved phone, the B4men reviewer found glass edges did not fit and liquid did. If you switch between normal cases and waterproof cases, the Mobile Reviews Eh! guide says a liquid layer adds no thickness and suits waterproof cases.
Skip it if you want a film you can peel off and replace, or if you bought it for a visible camera improvement. The reviews did not show that gain.
What is the best screen protector?
No single screen protector is best for everyone. The Mobile Reviews Eh! guide’s go-to for glass is the Rhinoshield 9H Tempered Glass screen protector, which it calls “full edge-to-edge protection at a decent price.” For a phone that gets hard use, the guide suggests the strongest setup: a liquid layer first, then a normal glass film on top. It calls that combination the toughest non-plastic screen protector setup it found.
Which brand glass protector is best, and how do Belkin, Zagg, Spigen and Otterbox compare?
This page covers Nanofixit and liquid protectors, and it does not rank Belkin, Zagg, Spigen glass or Otterbox against each other. The only Spigen product in these reviews is the GLAStR Nano Liquid, which the guide tested alongside two other liquids and found added impact protection.
To compare brands yourself, look at the warranty and return terms and the total price with shipping at checkout. Price depends on the seller and the version you pick, so the total is what matters.

Prices change, so check today’s price directly with the company before you order. The DAGeeks promo has ended, and the others are older listings.
Where do you buy Nanofixit, and how do you order safely?
The 2016 Tech Inspected post says the product was sold through Argomall’s online store, directly from the company’s website, and at stores in some malls. The DAGeeks review describes ordering by text message to a number, with a promo that has since ended. Those are different routes from different years.
Ask the company which channel is current, then confirm the price, the version for your device (phone, tablet or 3-in-1) and what the bundle includes. Before you pay, get the refund and return terms in writing: the return window, whether an opened kit can be returned, and who pays return postage. Keep the order confirmation and the receipt.
Can I just do this myself?
Yes, the kit is already the do-it-yourself version. Applying it took the DAGeeks reviewer under a minute to spread, plus the wait, and the B4men reviewer had it done in three steps at a stand. You do not need a shop, but you do need the alcohol wipe, the liquid and the cloth from the same kit.
Reddit and Amazon: what should I check?
For buyer opinions, search Reddit for the product name and read threads from the last year. The reviews above cover a few months to a year of use, so look for reports about scratches and cracks after long use. For the Amazon listing, check the seller name and return policy, and compare that seller with the one you plan to buy from.
