nuphy Air75 Mechanical Keyboard, 75% Low Profile Wireless Keyboard, Supports Bluetooth 5.0, 2.4G and Wired Connection, Compatible with Windows and Mac OS Systems-Gateron Blue Switch

I really liked using the keyboard. Quality PCB keycaps that will hold their matt-look. Board is small on your desk and doesnt take up too much space. LEDs look bright and refined. I used it wired the entire time I had it so cant say how well the wireless functionality worked. If I could have changed anything, I wish I would have gotten a more tactile switch. The linear reds were making my hands more tired sooner but I still love the low-profile gateron switches so will be trying different styles. I know the switches are hot-swappable but that would require another $40 to get new switches and availability isnt great in this market. For the manufacturer, the keycap quality feels good but I wished they were more concaved or dipped, I sometimes would lose home row. Still a great build product!

This is my second-ever mechanical keyboard- Ill admit, the low profile switches took a day of getting used to, but now that Im used to it its just as fun to type on while being 10 times as pretty. The keycaps are incredibly high quality and well-designed: no bootleg misprint icons to be found here. The build feels reasonably solid and the hot-swappable switches are a nice touch for if I ever want to try tactiles in the future. Some criticisms: The 2.4GHz dongle, according to the manufacturer, is unencrypted- but also it has a very short range. This makes it fairly useless, as with Macs, Bluetooth is a more reliable option with a wider range, and on PC, the one thing youd want it for, namely writing a boot password, is a security risk. I do not have the equipment or time to test if sniffing is possible, but I would err on the side of caution and use wired mode when your PC is booting. Bluetooth, however, works okay during boot on Mac and in the Operating System on Linux. My second criticism concerns Mac/Linux operation: the firmware is proprietary, and currently, key remapping software is only available for Windows. The manufacturer says the key remapper will also be available for macOS Summer 2022, which I will update this review if they deliver, but Id rather they open source the software and let the community handle it.

So this is really hard to get a picture of, but some keys stick out a little more/less than the others, making it feel a little weird when typing. I tried taking off the keycaps and making sure the switches and caps were seated correctly, but the problem still persists. Otherwise, this keyboard is really good and typing feels nice, but I wish there was more quality control.

I ended up returning 3 copies of the keyboard due to minor cosmetic blemishes. The two procured straight from Nuphy were sealed in plastic and blem-free. __________ What’s not to love about this keyboard? The Nuphy Air75 is so far ahead of the competition in the sound and feel category. It has a signature thocc sound from factory which is awesome. There is seriously no other low-profile keyboard as good sounding as this. Yes, the Keychron K3 and K7 with brown, banana and/or red switches sound sooo mushy—there is no satisfaction. You can thocc, thocc, thocc with the Nuphy Air75 for days. I love this keyboard so much, I got two: one with red switches and the other with brown. Its wireless 2.4GHz and bluetooth connectivity have been solid so far. I particularly like the wireless option since it allows you to access the BIOS or Linux GRUB menu. Wireless connectivity is also best if you can’t live with the 2-second lag when waking up the keyboard/computer from sleep. The big plus among many is that it’s low profile and that there really is no need for a wrist rest. I like the all day comfort. Nuphy crew, if you’re looking, I just have one wish! Actually, two. It would be awesome to get a black/dark grey keycaps OR grey keycaps that has the same shade as the factory standard option. The midnight keycaps, though grey looking, have a sand/brownish shade to them. For those knocking stars off this keyboard for the “scratches” on the metal plate, please don’t. The metal plate has a thin film cover that can fool you. It can be tricky to remove, but it’s there. Remove it and you’ll see a clean, scratch-free, polished metal plate.

The quality and thoughtfulness of the product is awesome. I had wasted money on other mechanical keyboards and wish I had just bought this from the start. This is a keyboard made by people who love their product, and it shows. The only thing I wasnt a huge fan of was the profile of the keycaps that came with the keyboard. There isnt enough of a profile for my fingers to find and activate the intended key at the accuracy level I wanted. I ended up replacing the alphabet characters with XVX Horizon Low Profile keycaps and my accuracy is much better.

Love the low profile, love the loud click. Weight is very good, lights are fun, keybed is solid. This is my work keyboard so I dont know how it is for gaming, but for work it feels great and has all the right keys in good places. Three bluetooth devices is great, I have my computer, phone, and tablet all set up and the keyboard switches between them very fast. It also wakes up from sleep and reconnects very quickly. Of course I have a list of nitpicks: * Keys are opaque so the key lights are mostly only useful for killing the battery. * Key click occurs before key actuation, so if you dont press the keys all the way down, the keyboard will miss strokes. * Small but noticable delay on OSX and Android. Not tested on Windows. Better when wired, but still not zero. But I do work with this, so the delay is not really a problem.

The only bad thing about this keyboard is that the keys dont have transperant marking to let the back light through thus it is difficult to use it in the dark without memoriaing where all the non alphabet keys are.

The build quality of this keyboard in exceptional, made of an aluminum body with plastic keycaps. The keyboard came ready for a Mac (CTRL, OPT, CMD keys), but with the included keycap puller it was easy to replace them with the included Windows (CTRL, ALT, WIN) keycaps. Also make sure to flick the switch on the back of the keyboard to switch from Mac to Windows. I initially really liked the keycap color combination, keyboard features (for a 75% keyboard), and the overwhelmingly positive reviews. I ordered the keyboard with the Gateron Brown Switches. Through the past month of using it daily (for work), I find it very easy to type on. The Brown switches keep the keyboard noise to a minimum, while still offering a noticeable bump when you reach the actuation point - a perfect compromise. The keycaps are non-standard, so you are sorta stuck with the keycap sets sold by NuPhy themselves, such as the Air75 COAST PBT Keycaps (Twilight) or the Air75 COAST PBT Keycaps (Xmas Limited). It is also possible to buy low-profile replacement switches in red, blue, brown to further customize the feel of the keyboard (NuPhy.com). I would highly recommend this keyboard to anyone, it just feels really good to type on!

Arrived very quickly, well packaged, this keyboard is a excellent wireless portable keyboard, but the price on the Amazon.com website its a little too high, better to buy it from the original NuPhy online store, maybe in the future they will offer others switches as option, because this keyboard its also a hot swappable one

For background, Im very picky with tech. This is my 3rd and hopefully last mechanical keyboard. I was looking for the following features: • TKL • low profile • wireless (2.4ghz specifically for no delay) • long battery life • swappable keycaps • hotswap switches • backlighting • around $100 • solid feel The Good In addition to satisfying the list of required features, Im very happy with the sound and feel of this keyboard • The board has a great weight and sturdy build due to the aluminum body • The function key row can default to F-keys or alternative functions (brightness/media/volume/etc.) if you update the firmware • The switches came pre-lubed so they have a very consistent feel (although re-lubing them would probably make this keyboard shine) • The default keycaps feel very nice with a slightly indented center and the color is pleasing to the eye • The backlighting has several presets and colors with an easy-to-use shortcut key system • The side lights are useful and customizable • There are several modding options for the enthusiasts • Not really my thing, but you may be pleased to know the Air 75 has an anime girl mascot and the keyboard comes with stickers and a poster on the rear side of the instructions The Bad Its taking a bit of time to get used to the low-profile keys (theyre a bit wider than standard keycaps so actuating them on the edges tends to press neighboring keys) • Theres a dedicated, non-re-mappable Siri/Cortana button
