Here, adapted these two keyboards for one-handed typing. https://github.com/clackups The NuPhy keyboard has a metal plate on the back, so a camera mount arm with two magsafe magnets would fixate it on the side of your bed at a convenient angle.

Well, I just got the Nuphy Node75 with silent blush switches and I love it. Especially as a person with large hands, theres plenty of room. The higher-end flagship Nuphy Air75 v3 is the current "best" according to all the reviewers. I think the Node is lighter and thockier, and a little bit less stiff, but they're close. The Lofree Flow 2, Lofree Flow, and Iquinix Magi75 are also excellent choices. The Lofrees also come with silent switch options, but the Iquinix does not. I would say the Nuphy Node low profile and Lofree Flow v1 are the best--the Flow v1 is pretty unobtrusive even with the non-silent linear switches. I've tried all of the ones above except for the Air75 v3. I have an Air v2 and it isn't as good, but pretty decent if you throw in some Keychron low profile silent red switches in it. The Melgeek o2 is also popular, especially if you like Macs. But no silent option with that one. I haven't tried it, but it sounds poppy in YouTube sound tests. A general FYI for low profile keyboards: They are proprietary. Older Nuphy and Keychron keyboards only work with Nuphy, Keychron, or Gateron low profile switches. The Epomaker Luma and odd-numbered Keychron K keyboard also only work with these. The Nuphy Air75 v3 and Node low profile keyboards also work with older switches, but the newer switches dont work with the older v2 keyboards (the new switches have plastic nubs that you have to clip off with nail clippers if you want to install them in older v2 and earlier keyboards). Lofree and Iquinix low profile keyboards only work with Kailh, Lofree, and Iquinix low profile switches. I forget what the Melgeek o2 takes, I think it's the nuphy/gateron variety. And there's also the budget Redragon low profile keyboards that only work with their own proprietary switches.

Even this price is still higher than the superior Nuphy Air or Lofree Lite.

As long as Lofree and Nuphy Air exist, there will never be a single reason to buy one of these.

IMO the best low profile keyboards are Nuphy Air series, Lofree Flow (lite), Iquinix MQ80 (I would go for for the MQ80).

I have few from keychron and nuphy - all low-profile. I use them everyday home/office/livingroom and I do not even prefer one over the other, all of those are in ANSI layout and this is my preference, got the red switches for, like how tactile those are. I also have Logi MX keys but in local layot and just because of it I do not like it, other than that it is also fine. As for connection - I have the dedicated adapter, BT and cable, depending on the setup - I see no difference in response times while typing or gaming. As for RGB - I apriciate it only in livingroom while watching movies. Oter than that I do not care, I do not look on the keyboard while typing. From wow side - nuphy is much more eye-catching, I got many positive comments about it while using in the office. If you configure something - make sure to have the shine-through key caps, the "behing keys" backlight is rubbish. For config, VIA software - whatever - I never cared about it, function lock was always there, never needed anything more. Except for nuphy v2 - I had to set it,as was F keys by default, but easily done with browser plugin and VIA software, I think it is unified. If you need macros etc - all is linux compatible (except logi - this I have no idea), As for your question: "The best Gaming Keyboard to buy for Gamers now?" I nmy opinion there is nothing like "gaming keyboard". Keyboards can be good or bad. Good keyboard is good for gaming and typing, bad is bad for everything xD
