Can I change a keyboard with standard switches to low profiles and convert the keyboard altogether?
Seriously, to those with Mold in your house, this can become a serious health issue especially for those with existing conditions such as asthma. Mold can cause watery eyes, runny nose, sneezing, itching, coughing, wheezing, difficulty breathing, headache, and fatigue. It's important to find the underlying sources of moisture and eliminate it before cleaning the mold. Wishing everyone a Healthy, Joyful & Prosperous Life where you're able to live to your fullest Potential!
Don't worry I have all of those symptoms already! Mold is from like 3 different leaks in my window/roof!
@@HipyoTech broooooo hipyoooo i cant have u dyin like thatt u gotta get all that fixed dudee
@@HipyoTech bro what kind of building has 3 different leaks going on at THE SAME TIME? What is going on there???
@@ronaid-with-an-i new construction in Seattle
@@HipyoTech Just patch the roof with your extra unused keyboards, easy.
Not trying the cowberry switches was a crime, but still a very insightful and helpful review!
Except it's always out of stock in the build
Got the cowberries with my air60 last week and I love them
@@Weevilshoes Waiting on my air75 v2 with cowberries to arrive. ETA says thursday
fo real!
@@Weevilshoes I have a air75 v2 with cowberries switches coming on thursday. Can't wait
I enjoyed the vs. style comparison of the two keyboards. It really gave more frame of reference for both boards just to see and hear them side by side like this. You should definitely do more. Also, now you're contractually obliged to do the keychron board just to round things out.
i really appreciate you giving more attention to low profile keyboards. thought you had forgotten about these. i'm most curious about what they are going to bring out as the rumored Lowfree Flow v2. hopefully they will at least allow remapping of keys. i have the NuPhy Air75 v1
I have a Nuphy Air96 for almost 1 year and absolutely love it. Got it for work, cause I type a lot. It was my first mechanical keyboard and I would not see myself typing on anything else. The typing experience is great and I would recommend it to all the people who are going from typing on a laptop keyboard to a mechanical one. It takes a bit to get yourself used to the travel distance, but it's worth it.
Same. I have had it over a year also, such a awesome looking and performing keyboard. I got it for the layoff it but ended up loving the look of it.
I loved it so much, I got the V2 & that is an even better experience
how do you not annoy your colleagues though? it is a problem for me
Hey Hipyo! I enjoy this kind of content where you compare and contrast two competitor keyboards. I get some amount of decision paralysis when I'm faced with a lot of similar options, so having this kind of content is perfect!
Hipyo, I'm not British so I'm glad this keyboard doesn't have a knob...Please make a video comparing the two keyboards after you mod Nuphy Air 75 V2 w/ PE foam/tape and lube switches/stabalizers! It sounds like THOCK heaven!!
I bought a Lofree Flow after seeing your original video on it and I have to say, its fantastic; got it on sale for around 120 USD and I've been really impressed by it.
I thought battery life might be an issue with it because the manufacturer seemed to really stress this 40hr value, however, I've been using it every day at work and at home as my primary keyboard and in the last month + I've not charged it once, or turned it off. I just leave it on in BT mode all the time and toggle it between my work laptop and rig at home. I have no idea how much juice it has left but I wouldn't be surprised if it just kept ticking for months more. I've even been playing games like Helldivers 2 on it and thought it would be a bad experience being a BT board but its actually completely fine and I haven't bothered to reconnect my Logitech G815 Tactile
I'm looking for a low profile keyboard to help with my wrist pain but I'm worried the low key travel distance can be bad for gaming. Can you tell me more about your gaming experience with it and which switch would you recommend (Phantom or Ghost) for gaming?
@@billythecat for gaming, presumably you want linears to have the most responsive experience (although in reality it wont matter much)
Low profile probably wont help with RSI, you may want to look at split ergonomic keyboards
I am interested in trying Lofree, but is it true that Lofree Flow didn't have key customization?
Because I usually use 75% and already used to using numpad with fn + bnm row.
Great vid, would love a review of the K MAX series
I have the NuPhy Air 75 and have done for about a year. I guess mine is an earlier model--it doesn't have flippy feet, but detachable ones that snap nicely to the bottom with magnets. They also conveniently become lost forever within days. It's my "couch keyboard" because it can give me reliable 2.4 GHz connectivity to my gaming/media PC, or bluetooth for an iPad. Also quite nice for travel.
It also did not come with any waifu stickers. What the hell, NuPhy.
One feature you didn't mention is the hardware mac/windows switch, which I have found very handy. Don't know if the Lofree does that or not.
I got Keychron K5 Pro few weeks ago, with additional layer or sound dampener and lubed gateron brown lp v2, and it's been great. The sound is somewhat between Nuphy and Lofree (quieter than Nuphy, but more clacky than Lofree), but it feels _exactly_ how I wanted it to feel (I love old notebook switch feel, and was using Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic keyboard for years even though it had awful stickiness issues).
Great video Hipyo! Bought a Nuphy Air96 v2 w Wisteria switches. I’m not after Thock so can’t speak to that but the 96 size on low profile is a real upgrade over full sized keyboard. It’s a real joy to type on and I look forward to sitting down and cranking out words (not for gaming) and using it for spreadsheets etc.
The only downside is there’s a learning curve for feeling the number keys and special keys bc they’re all jammed together for the 96 format, so it’s easy to mistype for a while until getting used to it. Definitely recommend.
Enjoyed the comparison style! Great video. Funny too ☺️
I learned most of what I know about keyboards from your videos.
I watch others too, but yours are the ones that made me comfortable ripping a board apart, lubing it, etc.
I know where your stand on the Keychron lineup. I run the K3 Pro (the Max didn't exist when I purchased, I'll grab one eventually).
I love I mean love low profile keyboards.
I actually run 3 types of switches, red, brown and blue depending on the key usage.
I use blue for most of the perimeter so I know when I'm on the border. I use reds on all commonly used keys and browns on the ones like symbols that are not border keys or regular use keys.
I'm in the 100 wpm club. Not the fastest out there, but the type that gets comments when I type.
Love your videos.
But I 'am' your nemesis. Lol. I'm a Keychron fan.
While I've not used the Lofree, I have an Air96v2 with Cowberry switches and XVX low profile PBT keycaps. Feels and sounds so much better than stock!
Hi Hipyo, Nuphy keyboards have rgb leds under the switches, not only in those little leds. You can personalised it too. I have a Nuphy Air60 and it is a gamechanging when you have 2 pcs in your desk, so maybe you can work on one and then having the other showing you training or whatever. It is cool too to carry it to the office to have your own keyboard only touched by you. It has no weight at all, and it matched my gaming set up with pink leds when keypressing :D
hell yeah - good to see you back with proper keyboard content
Hi Hipyo tech I love your keyboard vids, also I liked and subscribed!
Hipyo...you did this to me. I bought 3 different keyboards from Epomaker and landed on the Feker Galaxy 80. It's so damn good. The typing experience is just...beautiful.
The search for a good wireless keyboard for my first apartment got me back into this hobby and watching your videos again. I even have the page for this keyboard on my bookmarks bar, so I am really excited to watch this video!
In the end, I'll also be gaming with it, so I might just default to the Logitech G915 TKL.
My very first mechanical was a Cooler Master SK630 and I LOVED it for years. I had exclusively played on laptops for 18 years and I always fat fingered and messed up 80% of my keystrokes on standard sized keyboards. That was the first board I could comfortably type that was somewhere between a chicklet board and a standard mechanical. after living on that for 5 years and wanting to upgrade to my first custom I jumped onto a full layput Keychron and I've been using that since but I never could have transitioned my muscle memory to a normal keyboard without an in-between switch depth option. These are very much a necissary thing from an accessibility stand point for someone like me.
Have you ever thought of lubing the switches that come in the box for these low-profile keyboards? Would that improve the feel and sound of the switches?
I have a Keychron K3, which is basically the same as you're reviewing in this vid. I had to replace the Keychron Red switches with Keychron Black, and then with Mint (which is like brown, but the tactile bump is wayyy higher and doesn't feel mushy because of it), because I rest my fingers on my keyboard and I kept pressing keys by accident. I also replaced the function keys and monifier keys (ctrl/alt/shift) switches with Keychron Orange, so I can hear a *click* whenever I press those - very nice :D
I travel around a bit and often find myself in conferences rooms on a laptop with a room full of people. Because I’m a diva and can no longer type on a laptop, I decided to get a NuPhy Air75 V2. This was after doing zero research, so I really appreciate this video. I think the look and feel is fine. It was a bit louder than I would like when I’m sitting in a group (I already draw a lot of attention with my laptop stand and external keyboard (geez, who is this guy?)), so a bit of a quieter option would be nice. I’m excited to see that they’re expanding the low profile switch options though and I’m going to try to get my hands on some of those kailhs! Thanks for the rad video, Hipyo!
I believe the Nuphy is only compatible with Gaterons and not Kalihs
@@freddytrades Oof. Okay. Good to know. Thanks for saving me from a dumb purchase!
Happy to see this video come out! I have the nuphy with cowberry switches and after a tape and extra foam mod it sounds slightly higher pitched than I would like but I still love it regardless. The main reason I chose nuphy was because of the 2.4ghz, big deal breaker for me.
I hope the mould situation is in control!
I was hoping for you to test out the new cowberry and moss switches. The moss switches had a very deep sound in their video, and I am thinking about getting an Air 60 with them or the free flow. Well, guess I have to figure that out myself :)
Had the Lofree Flow for the last week and god it's just magical. Like, yeah I wish it supported 2.4GHz dongle, and I'd love a 60% version, but man it's so gorgeous and so satisfying to type on
Great review, as ever. Love the Nuphy! And it also comes in a 96 key version! Yay! But...they are too noisy for my personal situation. I'd like something a bit better than my Logitech MX keys which works fine but has mono backlighting that turns off when you take your hand away...this can be a PITA when gaming in the dark - but it is quietish. I really want RGB shine through caps so I can set different groups of keys to different colors. Thock does not rock for me, though. Now, if I could quieten down the Nuphy to MX keys level, I'd be a happy chappy.
I like the comparison videos!
I know this sounds silly, but because you owned two of the LP keyboards, why not try to use the POM switches to the Nuphy? I would love to know your thoughts because I never saw anybody try this before
They are not compatible due to the placement of the pins being different, unfortunately.
Your video is pretty crazy!
I was talking to my brother the day before about this kind of keyboard because he's looking for one and we can't find it
We're French and we're looking for a low profile ISO fr and it's a pain in the ass without names T_T
Thanks for your amazing work ❤
Keychron has ISO Layouts and low profile keyboards i. e. Keychron K3 Pro
I have the Nuphy Air 96, and it is my second mechanical keyboard (first being a super cheap red dragon).
I went with Nuphy because I needed that numpad and for it to travel with me in my bag.
I would happily buy another Nuphy board.
Just got a Nuphy Air75 v2 a few days ago with the Moss switches. I'm used to typing on Pandas, and the extra actuation force on those make it a joy to type on when compared to any other Gateron switch, except maybe the Oil Kings, which also have that rather high bottom-out weight.
Hey Hipyo! Just wanted to drop a line say that thanks to this video and your most recent beginner-friend-builds-a-keyboard video, my roommate and I finally dipped our toes into the hobby and did a combo order from NuPhy - she got the Gem80 and I got the Air75 v2 (with your affiliate link, of course, lol). Was leaning toward the LoFree initially, but even with the universally lauded typing feel, I just couldn't justify all the features you lose (VIA, 2.4Ghz, RGB, adjustable feet, mix-and-matching any color with any switch, etc.) vs. how much more it costs. Either way, appreciate the informative reviews, and congrats on the recent success with the AirUp vid!
I have Lofree Flow white combined with XVX normcore for backlit. I can’t fullfil my desire to type no matter how long I type. I love it
the k3 is nice but you need to mod it and lube it. I really want to try the lofree. I love low profile keebs, its cool to see you getting into them!
Oh you should try the Nuphy Halo96 next! Or any other Halo. I think you'll like the switches on those! The ghost bar feels nice too
Talking about lofree, please try the 1% series(I personally like the misty) It doesnt sound too good out of the box, but i want to see how it sound after customizing such as lube or crystal switches such as akko crystal switches.
great video! I ordered a Lofree Flow with your code. It was shipped 3 weeks ago but has been stuck on the other side of the US for almost weeks. I contacted Lofree for shipping updates and they have been blowing me off. Just fyi in terms of customer service / trust
damn where are you located?
I have the Grey Air75 v1 with a case and love it. I also swapped out the switches with Aloe and the caps with their Black Shine Through and now love it even more (more the caps than the switches. LP switches are much the same than different IMO).
That's why I bought both Nuphy and Lofree. I LOVE typing and sound experience from Lofree but I also enjoy Nuphy's options. I like them both.
I've had the Nuphy for about two months, and have recently tried the Lofree. The Nuphy I really like, but longer term it has some issues. I move my keyboard around a lot, and those tiny little rubber feet tend to rip off easily, so I replaced them with some larger generic feet. I also experience lost keystrokes with mine in wireless mode. Now, to explain, I have tried the included dongle and Bluetooth. I've tried a really expensive powered hub, a high quality cable, and moving my PC to within a foot of my keyboard and plugging it directly into the motherboard... and using any wireless connection method it occasionally drops keystrokes. Wired it works flawlessly. I like the keyboard so much I've decided to keep it and use it plugged in, but in my experience their wireless implementation stinks.
I accidentally ordered the wrong Lofree keyboard (I wanted the black one, ordered the white/linear one by accident). I tried it out, and while I REALLY like how it sounds, the white colorway simply doesn't work in my office. I have the correct one on the way, hopefully the tactile switches won't detract from the experience.
Been seeing this a lot about nuphy, thanks for the heads up. Have you had any issues with the LoFree connection wise?
@@BEDHEAD947 Honestly I'm a gamer.. so Bluetooth doesn't provide a fast enough polling rate for me. I've been using it with a cord. The main reason the Nuphy was such a disappointment was because I was hoping the 2.4 ghz dongle would let me leave the cord behind.
I’ve put about a pound if silicone sheets into the bottom. Switched caps with those from XVX/Womier, less prone to typing mistakes because more space between them than originals. Sounds awesome for me now with Whisteria switches. Used the little included switch pack to swap space bar for a Moss switch.
Low profiles are the way to go. In addition to that. I recently began the speed typing hobby and it's insane how low profiles can help you become a better typist
Fellow Seattleite here and I’m only just becoming acquainted with the wide world of keyboards. I’ve always loved the sound of typing and I also ordered the NuPhy Halo75 V2 recently. I hope I don’t get addicted and end up with 50 keyboards by this time next year. 🤣
In the hunt to replace my aging keyboard. I really like both these keyboards but I am leaning towards the Nuphy because of the better wireless performance and the qmk/via support. Switches can be changed although that is an additional cost.
Have you checked out the Minisforum mechanical keyboard? Very nice feel, very nice build and very versatile.
I quite like my Nuphy Air75 (V1). I got it from an auction house for $25 to serve as my work keyboard, and for that price it is an absolute steal. Mine has Gat Browns. I think they're actually pretty decent tactiles for the form factor, but I will probably switch them out someday. It feels and sounds good and the RGB is very pleasing.
I love my Nuphy, but only after I relubed the switches. I got a set of the moss and cowberry switches, and for both I had to lube them for it to sound and feel good.
I have a Keychron S1, might be worth checking that out or the K series low profile. The S1 seems like an in between on the Nuphy and Tofree since it has the gaterons but on the all metal board. Nice board I’ve been enjoying it
It was me - *I* was the mold 😶
Where was this two years ago when I purchased my NuPhy lol I was looking for another low profile 65-ish % wired/wireless mechanical keyboard since desk space is at a premium for me! I was one of the early adopters of the NuPhy 65, and the first thing that I did with mine was to replace the gateron reds that came with it. I know that I will be crucified when I say that after a few switch tests I replaced my NuPhy switches to cherry blues lol I don't know why, but I really like the slightly hollow clack of the blues, and as a career pianist, it's much more satisfying for me to type on a lower profile keyboard where effort and efficiency is prime. The cherry blue switches tell me exactly when the attack on a key has been triggered and the feedback allows me to not have to press as hard when typing faster for longer.
I would now like to try the Lofree, but I have a decent custom Anne Pro II that sports gateron browns. I swap between the two every couple of weeks or so depening on how I feel. I enjoy the customizability of the NuPhy at a moment's notice, but you have turned me onto something very comparable for not too too much more! :-D
I think the serious issue with Keychron is the vast gulf of difference in quality and performance between the regular K low profile range and the K-Pro. Honestly, I had a K1 (now at home) and I cant wait to bin it. My K1-Pro that I bought for work has been stock very nice with red switches for an office job. Needing a Numpad soon so hoping Keychron pull the thumb and make a southpaw K-Pro Low profile, or upgrade their K17 (Nuphy Air96) competitor to the 2.4ghz Max version.
I prefer the look and layout of Keychron but Nuphy has been very tempting.
I love my nuphy, and am looking to upgrade to the 96% with my next one. One of the biggest things it offers for me is the up to 5 connected devices and the clicky switches (I know I am a monster)
Loved this video. Do the Kailh switches from the Lowfree fit in the Nuphy by chance? The killer feature for me with the Nuphy is the laptop compatible feet that rest between the keys. Makes typing on a laptop so much more enjoyable long term as I get finger fatigue from the low travel of laptop keyboards.
Khail switches won't fit into Nuphy board unfortunately.
Hey Hipyo! Would Kailh ghost switches work with nuphy air 75? Also which ones would you recommend? (Ghost or phantom) I want good and silent typing experience (Currently have nuphy air 75 v1 with whisteria)
Please show me if the NuPhy cover can be used well with LoFree
Any opinion on which is overall quieter? I’m looking for a low profile mechanical keyboard to take to work that won’t drive my coworkers around me insane
Coincidentally, I was just looking at the lofree to use at work. Do more on low profile keyboards ❤
Would love to see the lofree get an update with 2.4ghz. Would honestly be a hands down winner for travel for a keyboard nerd 😁
Agreed!!
So, I bought an air96 v2 with the cowberry linear switches, a box of wisterias, and a nice oceanside cap set, set up the switches to be a mix of linear and tactile, swapped the caps, and now I have a problem/question
I now have a set of keys and switches for a low profile board - are there any low profile bare PCB/frames that I can install these lovely gaterons into and build my wife a keyboard?
Also, some feedback - It'd be nice to know when you review a keyboard not only if it's wired/wireless/bluetooth, but if the keyboard has a built in space to store the 2.4ghz dongle - the nuphy does not and that kinda annoys me.
this finally made me break down and replace my venerable, clacky, dated feeling (but still 100% working like a champ) custom maxkeyboards board from nearly 15 years ago. I still kinda feel like I betrayed it. it worked fine, had the custom mix of red/brown/black switches placed strategically and a custom fixed LED color that I loved.
Maybe I'll take the time to do it some justice - convert to USB-C, foam mod it, and solder in some new, better switches.
Hi Hipiyo, I really like you to answer a few things for us:
1. Can we fit nuphy keycaps on lofree (nuphy shine through)
2. Can we fit lofree switches in nuphy ?
3. Which among the lofree switches is better ? Phantom or ghost ?
Looks like no company makes the ideal keyboard for office? Office keyboards should be ideally:
1. Low profile, quiet, yet tactile
2. Full size keyboard (like lofree flow 100/nuphy air96 v2)
3. Shine through keycaps with backlight for evening or late night work!
Is this too much to ask for!
2 years ago, I bought my Keychron K3 and i just cant get tired of typing on it. The feel is smooth and sounds very clean. Wouldn't change it for any other keyboard, the only one im intrested on are the Air75 from Nuphy, they look sooo good! Definitely my next buy are gonne be those
howdy hey! just fell into the rabbit hole of mechanical keyboard and found your channel
first of all, just wanna congratulate you for your authenticity. not only i'm learning about mechanical keyboards, but also having a lot of fun
with that being said, i noticed that there aren't too many reviews about Nuphy's high profile keyboards and i've been considering buying a halo75 or even gem80
are you planning on reviewing them comprehensively?
I have the Keychron K1 Max with Gateron browns and I really like it so far. I would be interested to see what you think of it
I love my Nuphy Halo and air v2. I also got the wisteria switches for my air. I am curious what the air would feel and sound like with the Kailh low profile switches.
wondering if you been keeping up with Work Louder. Their Nomad [e] low profile board should be shipping at the end of seconds quarter this year.
This is a great video because I have been wanting someone to do a video on a low profile keyboard in an earnest review.
I CHALLENGE Hipyo to try to mod a Keychron K1 max (comprable to these keyboards) because, every time I have ever taken apart my past 3 K series keyboards, it has ended in disaster.
I suspect that Keychron makes these keyboards not mod friendly on purpose, but that’s just my opinion. I just hope that Hipyo will do a video on a low profile Keychron to share their thoughts on it.
I had the Air65 v2 and I loved everything about it EXCEPT the fact I would always make typos while typing with it. I'm asking if any others have this issue? I have a feeling its due to its' non standard bottom row...
Great comparison!
I have both the Keychron K1 and the Lofree Flow. For starters, I have no idea how people use normal height mechanical keyboards, I get wrist pain with the ones I tried. Then I tried the K1. The K1 I only used it for about a year, mostly general use, game dev + deep rock galactic. I found that with the K1 I tend to make far more typing/wasd mistakes. No idea why.
The Lofree though, only about 2 weeks in. I make far less typing mistakes with it. BUT. The arrow keys and home/insert island on the K1? I really miss those. I can easily find the delete key or page up/down keys in the dark with the K1. Not so with the lowfree. If I had to use the arrow keys frequently, I would likely return the lofree. Even just the backspace key is difficult to find, though its getting better as my muscle memory gets going.
I think both keyboards are excellent options, and being I don't really care about keyboards that's about all I can share. Mow!
hipyo where did you get your clear wrist rest? i’ve been looking everywhere for one, and if you could give a brand or a link that would be great
8:30 mark, be a keyboard wizard and test all of them!
I skip each and every ANSI board with passion, would love if there was a mention about possible ISO layouts.
I'm still waiting for a good low profile keyboard with an ISO layout. I haven't been able to find a single one (apart from the few Keychron ones that still don't include the 2.4 Ghz wireless option). Can't wait for literally any manufacturer to release one to finally be able to try them out.
The Keychron K3 Max has an ISO variant and 2.4GHz but I haven't tried it so I can't vouch for it.
hi Hipyo! I'm thinking on purchasing the Lofree Flow but would very much prefer if I can have a sleeve that works as a kickstand as well (just like the Nufolio). So my question is, does the Flow fit into Nuphy's folio? Thanks a bunch!
I’d love to see more low profile reviews! Enjoyed this one a lot, and agree with your conclusions. I have the flow w/linear and nuphy w/cowberry, I never use the nuphy. The lofree became my daily driver and is both luxurious feeling as well as reliable, with battery life that is perfectly fine for a work week.
I have a few normal-height keyboards, but after typing on Mac laptops daily for over 10 years the low-pro’s just suit me better.
Would love to try the Razer deathstalker (Razer RGB is fun). Anyone have other recommendations?
Would love to see someone try filing full size keycaps down to fit a low profile board, as I have a lovely set of keys but a slim board would be more convenient...
My guy. Great video. Very unique looking keyboards. But you got to fix that mold.
Ive been thinking on buying the Kailh Pro Purple switches. Thoughts? Since Kailh is new best friend
Another feature that nuphy low profile keyboards have is that they can fit snugly on laptop keyboards without pressing down keys. Currently using a nuphy air 60 to "replace" my mac butterfly keys
Not sure how they compare to Lofree, but the stabilizers in my Air 75v2 are absolutely amazing and I think that is huge and typically something that is overlooked on cheaper options
Hey, that's me in the video. Thank you for that Hipyo! Great video, per usual. ♥
I'm in the market for a low profile numpad keyboard with media control that is not 100% size. The ONLY one I could find was the Keychron k17 pro. Should I go for it or are there any other recommendations?
I have a ZSA Voyager and it's super low profile. It's about a centimeter thick and can also uses Kailh switches and has excellent RGB. It's split though if you're into that.
I guess my question would be do the kailh switches that Lofree flow used fit in the Nuphy Air?
Who knew that footage of the fashion show with the wooting keyboard would be so multipurpose.
I own a Nuphy Air75 and my friend owns a Lofree Keyboard. I do agree that the sound and feel of the Lofree is more appealing to me. That being said, I have enjoyed my options of switches from Nuphy (if you're wondering, you cannot use a Lofree switch in the Nuphy PCB and vice versa), they're in compatible. I like the different travel and weight options in the Nuphy lineup. If you ask me, I might trade it for a Lofree Flow for a limited amount of time.
There’s no image of the complete set of Coffee Shop PBT Keycaps. Is there any image of the content somewhere? 3:38
If you scroll down on the page there's a digital kit view - working on real world kit photos
I love my Nuphy Air96 but the thockiness in the Flow 100 is awesome. Can i put those switches in my Nuphy or any of similar kind?
I have the Keychron K1SE and I’ve had it for a few years (bought on sale) but only recently started using it after my main keeb ran into issues. I really can’t stand it, there is nothing good about it. I can’t wait for my replacement to arrive. My broken keyboard sits aside on my desk so I can happily press the keys every now and again.
Built my first keyboard after finding this channel a few months ago and now I can’t stop 😂
I wanted a Lofree Flow for that sweet stock sound, but the Bluetooth-only was a deal breaker for me... I went Nuphy Air75 V2 and I don't regret it :]
I got the Lofree with the tactile swtiches, and yes it is excellent to type on, the sound is great! I had the Keycron with the red switches, and they felt...puffy for some reason, super weird. Eneded up never really using it.
nice vid, nice keebs Hipyo! 🎉
I got the NupHy air 75 V2 with cowberry switches after I heard them.
They are slightly less amazing than I expected, but still fall in the amazing category.
I don't know if they are for everyone, but for a travel companion for my laptop, that keyboard feels great. Does not fit perfectly for my laptop in terms of not touching any keys, so I have to lift 1 leg stand. I think this keyboard is mostly aimed at 14 inch laptops.
Great video! Should've gotten the cowberries as well. They're the best feeling according to a lot of people!
I own a v1 Air75 with gaterons - can confirm that they need lub. Though slight modding (some foam, lub and pretty much the tape mod) - amazing thing to use and it does thock.
RGB is more than decent, if you get shine-through keycaps (the profile is a bit fucked to find though)
Oh God man good luck with the mold eesh.
grats on 1m subs!!!
