NuPhy - Field75 HE Wired Magnetic Gaming Keyboard

Keychron K8 HE, NuPhy Air75 HE or Field75 HE with the Gateron Jade switches. Both brands have really solid software, decent build quality, and they're not horrifically expensive.

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.

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.

Silent Switch exist. There is way more choice that what you can find on garbage retailer \*Gaming\* brand. And now you want a Hall effect switch. And all mainstream gaming brand are garbage with it. The Good thing are with Wooting, Nuphy, Iquinix and Keychron on HE board now. And the great thing about all these brand is that they are all easy to mod for sound profile change and make them quieter. If you don't care about Hall effect then Wobkey have still the best sounding and quality for the price on the market with the Rainy75 and Crush80. Thier Hall effect board is a bit on the expensive side. Nuphy Field75HE is the most feature full and insane great value currently in the HE departement.

Razer got dethroned by Nuphy several months ago. Even the HE keyboard of Iquinix is way better. There is not a single Mainstream retailer gaming brand that made a single great product in the last 5 years.

I have the tkl 60$ woot deal and like it for the couch rig. Had a keychronb q5 and its solid alum was beefy, ended up selling the q5 and copped a nuphy he field 75 and it is perfect with the jade switches imo. It is also more than double the price of this keyb

Nuphy Field75 or its HE version is pretty good for wow

Thoroughly enjoying my Nuphy Field 75 HE.

Nuphy Field 75, has both macro keys, 75 layout and has hall effect which is basically one of the only thing a gaming keyboard could have to make it a "gaming" keyboard. If you are looking for a gaming keyboard focus on magentic keyboards which actually imporve gaming, rgb does nothing and just go for it if you like it. Nuphy feld 75 is what i recommend for you, media keys, two nobs one for volume and other to personalize (if I remeber correctly) and some macro keys as well as what i already said of magentic keyboard

If your going for hall effect then the wooting HE is the best in raw performance along with Razers optical in the huntsman. For actually using the wooting would be better. Nuphy field 75 HE, Halo 65HE, Wooting 80& 65, keychron Q1 he, k4 he, or Lemokey P1 HE. I like the Lemokey since it's keychron with the same webapp, it's full metal, it costs ~$160 which makes it middle of the price pack but not as expensive as a metal wooting. The L5 is similar with slightly better polling rate. The Nuphy Field 75 is also good, but it's a bit gamery and plastic.

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.

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.
