I would like to see a review of the Field 75 with Polaris switches, I just upgraded from a Halo65 to the Field75 and its being an amazing experience until now. Unfortanely we have only a few reviews of this model.
i'd rather it have a good tilt in the first place. it's usually a "setup once. never touch it again" situation, unless you regularly flip them back in for travel
Nice! I mean wow! Flip out feet's - game changer for me, 'cause magnetic feet's really turns me off. Still want 75 version, because numpad is overrated but I need F keys for comfortable gaming. Video production quality is fantastic as always. Thank you
Glad they addressed the feet of the air 60. They are terrible. And they got loose so often and did not stick. Storing the magnetic feet also big pain point for me. Just two weeks ago it then also got fried while I was using it, one of the capacitors heated up too much apparently. Good news is they be sending me a new one minus the keys and switches.
That is some interesting timing: my wife finally caved under my constant nagging to replace her ho-hum Logitech K270 (or so) wireless membrane monstrosity with an Air96. It arrived two days ago and she absolutely loves it! I selected a model with the new Daisy switches and they are sublime: fast and silent; the sound overall is a neat silent-ish thocky delight. My Air75 is almost jealous. By the way - considering your luck with NuPhy, could you perhaps do a follow up and mention that the keyboard would be even better with some colored low-profile space bar options, similar to the Ghost Bar? Thanks! 😎
I definitely want Nuphy to do a 100% board. I use the numpad a lot and I’m hesitant to order the 96%. I feel like I’ll make a ton of mistakes. Smaller 0 button and just a cramped numpad in general. I can’t find anything even remotely comparable to this board in terms of features, especially for the price though.
Recently bought an Air 96 and it's great. However, I really wish nuphy would offer German / iso-de keycaps. Does anyone know where I could get 3rd party keycaps that'll fit the air 96?
Not sure yet, there was a time where NuPhy couldn’t ship to Switzerland but it seems that this has been resolved now. So maybe in the hopefully not to distant future 😅
Please move the new features down to the 60. I love the smaller form factor as I am proficient with layers and my muscle memory is set up for it. .... waiting.... groaning.... pouting.... moving on.... distracting myself....
The biggest issue I have with this keyboard is the wireless range. It sucks as$. USB receiver or Bluetooth range is about 1.5 meter, anything more and it won't work. Really sucks as I got this primarily as a wireless keyboard to us on my PC connected to my TV. My tv is less than 3m away and my wireless mouse works fine. I had to buy a USB female to male extension cable on run it on the sofa. Very disappointed
I have the air75 and 96 v1. I use the 75 as my couch keyboard now and the 96 is my main. I can see the benefits in upgrading the 75 (which I don’t need to), but I don’t think the 96 is enough of an upgrade for me
I believe so, at least if you have the version with the Gateron Low-Profile switches. I don't know if the socket is the same for the Keychron Optical switches.
been using mine (white colour) for a while love it. Sadly not much customisation options though because specific low profile keycaps. Also Nuphy Console isn't available for Linux.
I don’t have a great reference for other low profile boards, but I’d say it sounds much much better than any corsair / razer / logitech prebuilt I’ve heard. Seems much less resonant / sharp to me, but I’m sure some of that is personal preference. I wouldn’t expect a low profile board to sound anything like a full length travel custom, especially at an equivalent price point.

Update: the Nuphy Air75 V2 is now a thing with the same great upgrades as the Air96 and more!
Can’t wait to get it
I think Nuphy is really making a name for itself. Excited to see where the company goes.
Great video :)
Thank you! 🙇♂️
Love your edits and very fun to watch!
Thank you! 😊

Nuphy air 96 is a fantastic keyboard that I can't stop recommending
Nice review. Do you know if NuPhy is gonna update the Air75 with these improvements?
They just did a couple of weeks ago 🙂

Uhh, never heard about one of their boards getting fried, but cool to hear that you're getting a replacement 🙂
Very entertaining and informative video!
i was actually falling asleep until the alarm

😅 I'll try my best and let them know

I 've got the Air 96 but will pick the Air 75 V2 for the traveling =)) - both a really nice keyboard.

are you gonna try the nuphy field 75?
Not sure yet, there was a time where NuPhy couldn’t ship to Switzerland but it seems that this has been resolved now. So maybe in the hopefully not to distant future 😅
For reasons I can’t remember I ordered the 75 so then ordered the 60. Now I am wondering if I should grab this too 😅
Do you know what the difference would be between the V1 Air 96 vs the V2 air 96? I just recently bought the V1.

Are the switches factory lubed ?
I think almost all their switches are factory lube
I was lookin for something like that! A small board with FRICKIN' NUMB PADS! I prolly cannot afford it, but SO WHAT? I CAN DIE REASSURED NOW

what do you mean by the A key being a bit skinnier than all the other keys?
The character "A" has thinner lines than the other ones, it's a consistency issue you sometimes get (not only on NuPhy caps).
Where did you get the software for this keyboard?
You can get it from NuPhy's website: nuphy.com/pages/nuphy-console?

15:07 oh brother
Can Nuphy switch fit Keychron K3 switch?
I believe so, at least if you have the version with the Gateron Low-Profile switches. I don't know if the socket is the same for the Keychron Optical switches.
Nice
0:00 Then why didn't you edit it out? Besides, I found many other things in this video that I would have liked not to see.
14:49 What secret is that?
I wish I could fall asleep 3 minutes into a video
been using mine (white colour) for a while love it. Sadly not much customisation options though because specific low profile keycaps.
Also Nuphy Console isn't available for Linux.
Keyboard will be better with a bit separeted arrows and num keys.
You are missing the whole point of a 96% keyboard. Just use a full-size 😂😂😂😂
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!! 69 dad joke, the best!
💯
Hahahaha. 69 + a turtle. 😂
Useless numpad.
Let's face it, it doesn't sound great.
I don’t have a great reference for other low profile boards, but I’d say it sounds much much better than any corsair / razer / logitech prebuilt I’ve heard. Seems much less resonant / sharp to me, but I’m sure some of that is personal preference.

What board is better then this for the same price range?
Looks very generic, no style whatsoever
