> 24 hourThe build quality of this keyboard is just top notch. It is an aluminum frame on top of a plastic base and its quite heavy with a deep thonky sound. The baby kangaroo switch version I have has a slight tactile bump to is. Maybe a bit less than a brown. Sounds is quite good and I can only assume these are factory lubed as I dont feel any scratch on the switches at all. The print on the keycaps are bold and clear with no noticeable flaws that I can see. You have 2 stage feet on the rear of the keyboard which I love because I prefer a taller tilt profile to my keyboards. It says in the Amazon description Seven switches of different types are included in the package to facilitate users to find the most suitable switch and feel and I feel thats a bit misleading. Its just a sampling of 7 different switch types in the box. Not sure thats very useful. I mean if one of my switches breaks, I would want a switch of the same type thats on my keyboard. They also include some additional keycaps including some Windows specific keys if you want to use this on a Windows machine instead of Mac. I give big points for this. I much prefer changing the caps out vs having keys with both windows and mac prints on that. This is the same thing Keychron does with their keyboards. As far as a prebuilt goes, I think this is one of the best Mac keyboards on the market. There isnt a ton of Mac gamers out there though so Im not sure 65% was the way to go. Something like a TKL would have been a much better idea for a Mac specific keyboard.

> 24 hourSolid construction, good sound, and (so far) seamless Bluetooth connectivity. The extra silicone under the space bar is also a really nice touch that you won’t normally find in prebuilts. As a whole, this keyboard is very similar to a $280 custom board I own for more than $100 less.

> 24 hourWorth the price. This is really a good mech keyboard for everyone. Good quality (case and keyboard) and fancy design. I like the halo LED and indicate LED on the top left. Perfectly suit with both Win and Mac. Support with 3 mod connections. Choose the switch you would like type with. Thanks to the hot-swap pcb, we can also change switches we would like to try. If you are new to mech keyboard, this is good one to start with. If you are an keyboard enthusiast, want a keyboard with little fancy design and almost all modern keyboard functionalities, it is also a good keyboard to play with.

> 24 hourHad an Air75 and when I saw the Halo65 I had to have it. Very well built, sounds great and the lighting is great. The software could be better, still seems like beta software but it works OK.

> 24 hourIll normally begin modifying a keyboard right out of the box; lubing and filming switches, foaming cases and top plates, tape mods, etc. to make them feel and sound better... This keyboard was such an enjoyable experience right out of the box, its the first time Ive actually just left the keyboard exactly how it was. The ghost bar is absolutely amazing sounding. I got the model with baby kangaroo switches, theyre easily the best feeling tactile switches Ive ever used. The bump is right at the top, and even unlubed or filmed theyre really good feeling. Maybe Ill lube/film them one day, but as of now Im finding myself typing more than ever, beating my typing speed records, and just being generally content with this rig. I use it wirelessly about 75% of the time, and the connectivity seems solid. A lot of the time lately Im using a tv as a monitor and sitting across the room, having zero issues. In the mechanical keyboard hobby, this is a budget or entry level keyboard. When you compare this to every other budget/entry offering, this keyboard does it all better in my opinion. If thats what youre looking for, save your keychron or RKS money and buy one of these. The 75% and 94% are live on NuPhys website, but if youre in the market for a 65% I would get it from amazon for the simple return option if its not for you or if something did happen to be wrong with your keyboard. Also: if youre a tactile switch person: get the baby kangaroo switches. If youre a linear switch person: get the baby raccoon. Easily worth the $10 upgrade over the browns or reds. Nuphy did send demos of their glacier switches, which felt super nice, but for me, the baby kangaroos are the real winner.

> 24 hourThis keyboard looks and sounds amazing. Everything about it feels premium, down to the paper used for the QuickStart guide. One of the only purchases I’ve made recently that left me with no buyer’s remorse. Easily worth the cost if you use a keyboard daily like… most people.

> 24 hourI have had my eye on the Halo65 for a little bit now and the more I watched and read about it, the more confident I was knowing I wouldn’t regret it. I was fortunate enough to snag this beauty with the Baby Kangaroo switches during the Black Friday sale before they sold out and I am more than impressed. The initial sound and feel of the keyboard out of the box is what I would imagine people in this hobby aim for and for someone like me, it’s absolutely perfect. The high quality pbt caps feel nice to the touch and the pre-lubed switches are smooth, poppy, and sound excellent. The top of the case is aluminum while the bottom is a sturdy plastic and they filled this bad boy full of silicone so the dampening is real! My favorite feature is the space bar dampener. Goodbye bandaid mod that half worked. Oh and rattle, who? The rgb is nice and easy to customize. They include a cool poster with all of the fn inputs and combinations on the back to customize the board to your liking and change other settings such as mac or windows mode. You can connect the board through Bluetooth, wired (nice quality braided cord included), or 2.4g dongle and the dongle can click right into the side of the board when not being used so you don’t lose it! Lastly, they provide you with a small assortment of switches for you to test out as well as some extra keycaps for you to take the customization even further! I personally opted for the night breeze switch in the space bar because I thought it felt the smoothest. You can tell they really put thought and effort into making this quality board and it’s almost unreal for the price. I highly recommend to anybody looking for a solid prebuilt!
