NuPhy - Air75 HE Magnetic Switch Gaming Keyboard

If you go with a Hall Effect board (and it’s a solid choice) just make sure to research what magnetic switches the board you are interested in uses. Keychron/Lemokey, HE boards for example, can only use a specific Gateron dual rail switch along with Glorious switches. For me personally, the stock Gateron dual rails are not very pleasing. A spring swap though brings them to life. I enjoy doing that work but you may not. Wooting and any board that uses the same polarity will have the most switch options available. This includes popular switches like Geon Raw and Gateron Jades. I have owned ad Keychron Q1 HE, Wooting 80, Wooting 60, Keychron K2 HE, Maggard 68 Pro and Nuphy 75 Air. The Wooting is the most premium option. As others have said, the software blows all others out of the water. I was really impressed with the Nuphy. It’s a low profile keyboard so different switches / keycaps than the others but it’s a fun board. The software on all the boards I’ve used lets you set actuation per key, rapid trigger, SOCD, dynamic keystroke and macros (plus more). The Wooting is the most intuitive and best for RGB if you care about that. I could not get dynamic keystroke working on the Nuphy but didn’t try after the first day as I replaced it with a macro for what I wanted. The Nuphy and Keychrons you are limited to 3 profiles. Maggard is 4 and the Wooting is unlimited, but only 4 active profiles (all your other profiles are archived within the online software). There’s a database of other Wooting profiles that you can easily copy/paste a code for yourself to utilize that users profile. Finally, I’m pretty sure Keychron boards have gamepad support and I know Wooting definitely does. This would allow you to set keys as controller functions for things like racing games / GTA driving / etc.

I have to say the Air75 HE is a phenomenal board. Feel, fit and finish is excellent. Aluminum top case with a bottom plastic. I can’t lie, I wish it was all metal like an Iqunix but at the same time I need the flip feet with a low profile keyboard. One word of note. I almost didn’t buy this because video reviews I watched said every time you move the keyboard, the flippy feet collapse. I’ve never experience that. I primarily use the small feet but have also tested it with bigger feet and there’s no issue there. Software is almost on par with Wooting and Keychron. The only con is I couldn’t set a Dynamic Keystroke with the Nuphy. I normally map the right side of R4. Instead of Control and Alt on the right side I remap those keys to Win+Tab and either Win+G or Win+x. I can’t remember what I did to make it work but it wound up being super easy. Might’ve been a macro or a different way to combo keys, I cannot recall. Either way it turned out to be fine but if DKS matters to you, I don’t know how well that works. Yes, I bought the berry Oblivion caps after the fact. Someone else here recommended them. They are fine, no complaints. I was hoping the higher profile would help me stop making mistakes in game between hitting Esc when I want ~ but I still make that mistake sometimes. That more from the compact layout and has nothing to do with the board nor the keycap profile itself.

Love my current setup: Nuphy Air 75 HE + Razer Viper V3 Pro

I'm going to mess both of you up even more and say if you want something low profile don't look into lofree, instead look into NuPhy, specifically the NuPhy Air 75 (V3 for mechanical ; HE for magnetic), or the new NuPhy Node 75. I have the NuPhy Air 75HE as my primary gaming keyboard and I'm ordering the Node 75 for a general multi purpose keyboard. I'm a huge fan of NuPhy, especially their IO is damn near perfect.

I'm surprised IQUNIX don't offer any *low profile* hall effect switch options. They offer their own in-house X Ultra magnetic switches and also the Gateron Jade Pro switches. The NuPhy Air 75HE uses the low profile version of the Gateron Jade Pro switches. I personally love the Gateron Jade Pro switches, combined with the low profile nSA keycaps, it's been a game changer.

I recently switched from using mechanical to magnetic / hall effect for the first time earlier this year with the NuPhy Air 75HE and it's been a big enough game changer for me that I would recommend for others who are interested in keyboard customization or having a slightly better competitive edge with gameplay. The biggest differences are the customizations with the triggers, you can set and adjust actuation points, rapid trigger, dynamic keystone, etc. I primarily play Fortnite with a ton of keybinds and other 3rd person / first person shooters and I have definitely noticed a difference in my movement and ultra low latency. It's obv not going to make you a better player, but if you are asking about it I would suggest it.

i can give credit Nuphy Air75 he,too. Magnetic switches generally have so much voices

I have only ever tried 1 HE keyboard which is my current gaming board I do enjoy the nuphy air 75he, felt good straight out of the box, I didn't need to install any software can set up through the web app, which is nice.

I'm excited too. I hope it's at my local Razer store so I can play with it a bit. I currently have NuPhy Air 75 v1. Even though I've had it so long and highly rated, it feels a bit cheap. Years ago I had a Deathstalker TKL which I got rid of only because it was red linears, which I didn't like for typing on. I still occasionally miss that keyboard because it was so well built. I would like to own another low profile Razer keyboard. Edit: I just called my local Razer store in Seattle. They have the Joro on display. I plan on playing with it tomorrow.

I went all out earlier in the year and tried a bunch of low profile keyboards. Nuphy air75 he / Keychron K3 / Nuphy air75 v2 / Keychron B1 / Logitech MX mechanical / Logitech MX / If you want to buy a keyboard that will last you the next 5+ I would spend the $$ on the Nuphy HE or the Kechron K3, specially if you are going to use it for gaming. Otherwise the best cheap is the Keychron B1. I kept the Nuphy He, because I loved the magnetic keys, and the Keychron B1 because I can take it anywhere. My advice is that if you are going to be moving around with any of these, you must buy a keyboard case. Non of them felt like they would withstand a drop. Note: I did not try the lofee because it was the only one that required me to pay shipping fees if I returned it, so I didn’t take my chance. But I have seen great reviews.

Nuphy air60he or air75he. Super silent. I came from a wooting 60he before that which drove me mad

mouse: undecided yet, current (attack shark x11) pretty good but not enough for endgame tbh keyboard: nuphy air75 he mousepad: cheap rog moonstone ace l clone (10 dollars, made of glass)

Personally went with nuphy I love low profile, so air75 for me

Ehh this depends. If you actually care about input delay(you shouldn’t unless you’re in the 0.1% or a given game), there’s prebuilt gaming keyboards that are “faster” than ones you can build yourself such as wooting or apex pro. If you care about typing experience, build quality, prebuilt gaming keyboards are absolute shit. You can build much better yourself or even get non-gaming prebuilt ones from decent companies as a compromise. Right now a very good choice, with being one of the fastest and having decent built quality is the Nuphy Air75 HE.

Very nice me as a owner only one Nuphy air75 v2 my next purchase is going to beNuphy air75 he =) and how do you like yours ?

I already own two Hall Effect keyboards and i'm typing this right now on one of them 😂yeah HE is great even though I've got optical and mechanical keyboards and one Nuphy like i mentioned i just can't go back to them after HE so now its time to buy HE low profile

The Nuphy BH65 and Air 75 HE, Air 60 HE, and Halo 65 are all on sale for less than that right now on their website. The Air 60 is $84 which seems crazy cheap. I personally use an Air75 HE as my daily driver - great board and their software is probably the best next to Wooting.

Nuphy 75 HE and Air 75 HE are on fire sales on the Nuphy website. I am gonna get an Air myself, they’re like a full $50 less than Amazon prices for the Nuphy summer sale.

Keychron Q1 HE or Nuphy Air 75HE

Same benefits as a wooting with better switch, price, build quality by a mile.

Yes ofc, 0.1mm precision actuation point as well same as wooting really feature wise. The software is a bit less easy to use but very mangeable and honestly the price and build quality compensate for it a million time. My wife has (good valorant player) and really like it, i've tried it too, it's nice. You can see their software at Nuphy.io

I have a Nuphy Air75 HE and it can modify key travel distance for activation. I thought that was the entire point of hall effect switches?

I’m using the nuphy air75 he and it’s amazing. It’s something like 130

Got mine today. Gonna make it with white keycaps also from Corsair. I'll come back with a review. I have at least 20 Keyboards. The best and the most that I like is the Nuphy 75 HE.

Honestly, unless you're looking to dump $100+ into a keyboard, HE doesn't make sense. Cheap HE boards are just not it in terms of reliability, build quality, and software experience. The cheapest HE board I can actively recommend is something like a NuPhy Field 75 HE or Air60/75 HE. Keychron's K2 HE or K4 HE are also a steal for what they cost. But it's all preference. Generally speaking, mechanical keyboards still have the upper hand when it comes to sound, and to a degree build quality. But if you're not particular about sound, and you can handle more or less only having linear switch options, HE is fantastic for both work and play.

TMR is supposed to be the best from a technical standpoint, but I don't think anyone can actually notice a difference in accuracy... As for a combination of good features, fast response times, and good build quality, look at NuPhy, Iqunix, and Keychron/Lemokey (there's only one Lemokey keyboard with 8 kHz polling, but that's also marketing wank IMO). The only reason I hesitate to recommend a wooting to anyone is because they can't be used as "daily drivers" by a lot of people because of the lack of onboard macros.

Not really. The NuPhy keyboards will feel a little stiffer compared to the 80HE. Both will require mods to sound truly good. Just different mods. The Iqunix HE boards are pretty solid across the board aside from the software being a little less intuitive and polished. Keychron and Lemokey's wireless HE boards are all limited to 1 kHz polling, but you'll NEVER notice 1 kHz vs 8 kHz in a keyboard. There's one Lemokey board that's 8 kHz. I think the L5 HE (?) but that's also only wired lol. The biggest drawback with Keychron/Lemokey HE boards is that they're only compatible with Gateron Double-Rail Magnetic switches (and unofficially, the switches that the Glorious GMMK 3 Pro HE uses). So that's a downside if you wanted to try other switches. But those Gateron switches are decent. The rest (stuff like build quality, keycaps, sound, and feel) all match or surpass Wooting.

I just ordered the nuphy air 75 HE for $90 if you don't mind low profile

If you are looking for a cheap HE option with a condensed F-Row, consider Aula Hero 84. The software is a bit clunky, but it does the job. Don't even think about getting the Wooting, it is overpriced as heck. Nuphy Air 75 HE also seems like a decent option. I own Field75, and I absolutely love it. The build quality is good, and the NuphyIO is pretty convenient. Overall, I think that any keyboard with a condensed F-row will do.

Thats a great question I really like them all but since your asking what my top three are, here it goes. At number 3 the Kick 75, I actually won this one from a youtuber and on my bday which was cool. I didn't know what to expect from this keyboard because it was made of plastic but when I received the keyboard it didn't feel cheap at all in my opinion. It is well made and has some good weight to it. Mine is a high profile and came with red switches it feels really good to type on and the knob is very useful as I use it to higher or lower my music while working. I also love the retro look it adds a bit of fun to my workstation so I like to use it on Mondays lol. 2 Would have to be Halo 75v2 my first into to Nuphy keyboard. I had come from using razer products for almost 10 years but when they no longer supported mac I was on the search for a keyboard that gave me the excitement that Razer keyboards gave me at the time. I am a visual person so if something looks good it inspires me to want to be at my desk and create. So I don't just use them for gaming but for inspiration as well. it just sets the vibe if you will. So when I saw the black 75 v2 I had to have it. The keyboard looked so much more different then what I had been using and it really looked awesome when I set it on my desk. The feel of the typing was different then that of Razer, it just felt comfortable. It was more sensitive then I was used to but it was fine after a couple of days. The switches that I have in the Halo75v2 are Raspberry switches. The design of this keyboard is superb and the rbg on the bottom half of the keyboard come on its just awesome. 1 Gem 80 just when I thought I had experienced the most comfortable keyboard this was it. I really love the key caps and in combination with the lemon switch's its just bliss. This keyboard is built like a tank I also love the fact that you can make mods if you want to. A great intro into the building of mechanical keyboards if that's your thing. If you want to tinker around you can and it comes with everything you need to get a feel for it. Mine is in Obsidian Black this keyboard was specifically for my pc desk where I do digital art and game every now and then. It is the tri mode version so I can use it wirelessly blue tooth or wired. So fare this keyboard is my favorite at the moment. I know this is a little thing but having a dedicated button to lock the windows key has become such a help since I always hit the windows key every time I am using Photoshop, Affinity designer etc it has been a blessing. And then I can just click it back on when I need to.

Funny I am actually using my Air 75 he right now, but to answer your question I like it its a really nice keyboard. The keycaps and switches are nice it does feel different and familier at the same time if that makes any sense and im refering to the Air 75 v2 as far as layout and size. Nupy io is easy to use so you should be able to setup your activation point and other customizations you might want to do pretty easily, It is a solid low profile keyboard in my opinion. It is a wired only keyboard so thats something to consider as well. All in all it is a solid and versitial keyboard and it just looks so awesome .

As of right now my Fovorite keyboard is the Gem 80 I love the way it feels sounds and is a really solid keyboard in my opinion.

Thanks man I appreciate it, the Blue lagoon is still being sold I hope they dont plan to drop them because I still want a white one lol and they are a great keyboard in my opinion.

Air 75 HE with the jade pros is THE best keyboard I have ever used. I just need a foam/rubner keyboard mat underneath for just a tad bit more height. But otherwise I love the thing.

for a high end mouse - you can't go wrong with a Logitech PRO X Superlight 2: [https://pcpartpicker.com/product/QzHqqs/logitech-pro-x-superlight-2-wirelesswired-optical-mouse-910-006628](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/QzHqqs/logitech-pro-x-superlight-2-wirelesswired-optical-mouse-910-006628) or the cheaper last-gen version: [https://pcpartpicker.com/product/yY4BD3/logitech-g-pro-x-superlight-wireless-optical-mouse-910-005878](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/yY4BD3/logitech-g-pro-x-superlight-wireless-optical-mouse-910-005878) for a high end keyboard - i'm going to assume you want hall effect for optimal performance, in which case I'd suggest NuPhy: [https://nuphy.com/collections/he-keyboards](https://nuphy.com/collections/he-keyboards) Or the keychron k2 HE: [https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-k2-he-wireless-magnetic-switch-keyboard](https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-k2-he-wireless-magnetic-switch-keyboard) Both are head to head with Wooting when it comes to performance but with a better out of the box sound and being cheaper, even with customization. if you want more suggestions I can provide them!

Yeahhh.... don't go for that one. Since you have that budget, I'd much rather suggest the Iqunix Magi65 (super creamy, my friend has it) or the NuPhy Air 60/75. Pretty sweet keyboards. Do you know Indian websites to get them from or would you like suggestions?

Oh yeah, it is a wonderful keyboard. My friend has the Pro version with the volume Knob and media control keys and I have typed on it. It is buttery smooth and the sound is creamy and soft to the ears. It is quite heavy though. So you won't be able to comfortably travel with it. If you were to do that, I'd suggest a NuPhy or LoFree keyboard.

Yeah for sure. It's very disheartening that I can't change the switches out on the K2. The Nuphy Air is gonna be my first low profile though, I'm nervous about it.

For 99.9% of people it doesn't matter at all. Someone may feel cooler when their keys have a certain look, typing feel, or sound, but none of it is going to have any meaningful impact on gaming regardless of what the marketing wants you to believe. The main appeal with modern keyboards is their insane levels of customization - you can get whatever you want and replace switches on a whim if you want to. If you want the flat laptop style keys I'd suggest looking into something like a Keychron K1 low profile or the Nuphy Air series and branch off from there as you figure out your preferences.

how did you like the nuphy air? got one recently and can't stand it

I've tried nuphy air (nope; couldn't stand the loud slickly switches and typing experience was terrible for me) so I returned it. I have and love the lofree lite. I know you're interested in the flow but I really do like the lofree keyboard; it's such a great typing experience, I changed the keycaps to the nuphy coast twilight and it made the typing experience even better, sounds extra creamy (which I love) and I liked this keyboard so much I went and ordered the 100 in a different colour.

I even Think the Software beats Wootility in Features and Possibilities. I would say: 1. NuPhyIO is the best, only lacking analog mode which is mainly used for racing games but I prefer a Controller aniways 2. Chillkey is my second place, lacking an Implementation of Rappy Snappy, Analog mode and Continious RT. (Tachyon Modes missing too, but I really don't think it's a noticeable difference) 3. Wootility comes at a close third. In looks its defenetly better than the chillkey one, but I couldnt find features like Deadzones, Macros and Hypertap which I think are more important than the things Chilkey's Software doesn't have. Personal preferance though.

MX keys mechanical is good if you want a low profile board. I tried nuphy and really wanted to like it but it wasn’t for me. Still would recommend, it was very high quality and a very nice keyboard, we just weren’t a match. My daily drivers now are a royal kludge S98 for my work computer, and their southpaw version L98 for my personal computer. The pros are it was the only mechanical southpaw I could find that was reasonably priced, cons are that it doesn’t play well with Mac’s.

For typing feel exclusively, the best is lofree flow. I am selling my Nuphy because of this despite the flaws with lofree.

I think the Bluetooth connection isn’t great. That’s the major downfall and takes a while to wake up. So I end up having it wired the entire time and that’s fine for me. I still think it’s great. If you want a better overall version except it’s not aluminum then the kickstarter lite version is the one you should get.
