he made me laugh & he was the one who inspired me to start my custom keyboard business & for that i thank you from the bottom of my heart, truly thank you & keep up the good work. wish you the best
Got mine about 2 weeks ago and previously had the air75. I got the red 2.0 since I couldn’t see any reviews of the other new switches. The software blows, but they are definitely my favorite keyboards. So happy I switched from a gmmk pro.
NuPhy has been a good entry to the keyboard space. I got their TES78 a while back, plugged my own lubed Pandas and the dampened chassis sounds so good. Their PBT keycaps also sound good. Too bad the firmware is locked so you can't configure hotkeys etc.
I bought my Nuphy Air 75 a few months ago. Liked it so much I bought the Halo 75 a couple weeks ago. Very high quality keyboards for the price. I've got several custom $300+ keyboards, but these two Nuphys honestly might top the list.
that comparison of yours is kinda BS isn't it? you can spend hundreds of custom keyboards but if you don't know pick your parts right (switches and plate material, specifically), they're gonna sound worse than mass produced prebuilts such as nuphy or keychron keyboards not to mention that nuphys are low profile, which are inherently less moddable and have considerably less switch options than normal profile customs
Imagine an office and everyone is clicking... The ideal keyboard should be split into two parts, be silent, and have protection against dirt so that you don't have to wash it every month. The best keyboard is the one that you will always carry with you instead of a pen. In addition to the basic functions that the current ones have. Yes, and the trackpad can be endowed with a bunch of limitless functions.
Thanks for the video. The sound, the look, the hardware flexibility seem to be good. What about the software (via?), battery life, and wireless performance?
Really adore those letters jumping out while you were typing; I bought the Air96 with Blue switches ( Wisteria is unavailable at the moment though ) with your discount code. Now I am happy to wait for my own delivery.
Вот этот тот самый форм фактор о котором многие говарят. 1) Это не просто полноценная клавиатура, а та, у которой все клавиши расположены максимально компактно. 2) Вид и ход клавиш приближен к ноутбучному. 3) Это не скелетон клавиатура, но и не полностью закрытый "борд". Это тот вид "борда", которые компактный, но максимально удобный.
@@kishirisu1268 Вы видимо подобные клавитатуры не использовали. От ноутбучныэ конечно такое будет. Я не говорил, что это такой же тип, я сказал, что это нечто среднее. То есть эта клавиатура ниже стандартных мембранных, ниже обычных механических и даже ниже некоторых низкопрофильных механик.
I don’t understand why they can’t make a true 86 keys TKL keyboard instead of these cramped configurations. Why do they continue to use laptop layouts?
Hi, this keyboard looks promising. I have a Keychron keyboard, one of the best feature is that I can remap the key with VIA. May I know if Nuphy 96 have similar software to remap the key or set the macro?
I always wanted to ask you where you bought your rings? I know they are not in this video, but you used to wear them, thin silver ones with a flat portion on the upper side...Please see this message 😂
I love these keyboards but I miss having LED that's actually useful. I mean, what's the point of having LEDs in your keyboard when they don't shine through the keys? Can't they just double shot the caps with a transparent material? Still considering getting this bad boy though 😅
YES! More 96% please! It's my favorite layout but it's basically impossible to find in the custom mech market. I've been forced to fork into 75% in order to get good boards 😔
@@Lishtenbird Akko and Keychron aren't what I would describe as fitting into the custom mech market honestly. They're a more niche brand with specific offerings to the community, but overall they're just modable prebuilts.
@@CocaineCobain If those aren't "custom" enough, then Air96 won't be changing anything either because it's even more prebuilt and has neither QMK nor gasket, plate, knob, case color and so on options.
@@Lishtenbird The air96 is something I wouldn't classify as custom either. Most mass produced boards are outside of the custom mech market in my opinion. I build boards on commission and work on about 10+ invoices a month for custom boards, and I'd say honestly outside of Keychron and Wooting most mass produced mech boards aren't worth the hype.
Now if only they offered other languages layouts :( Key caps are flat so I could swap them around and reconfigure their disposition in software (QWERTY -> AZERTY) but there’s more to that with my layout
@@Lishtenbird That sticker has the ANSI option checked (circle is filled as opposed to just being the outline), and I have not seen any other mention of ISO or some option to select ISO layout upon purchases (among the other options like colours and switch type). I think it's just saying it's ANSI because it just is, or maybe it's foreshadowing the appearance or ISO as an options for later but as of today I don't think Nuphy offers ISO on any of their offerings. EDIT : They DID (discontinued) sell another keyboard with some more languages options. The NuType F1 Wireless, but then again amongst their newer colourful mechanical offerings (Halo and Air lines or product) there's not that option to chose AFAIK.
나도 에어 60, 에어 75, 에어 96 다 샀는데... 나한테는 에어 60이 제일 잘 맞는 것 같음. 집에서는 에어60 쓰고, 사무실에는 에어 75. 에어 96은 그냥 박스 안에 잠들어 있음. 에어 96은 적응이 잘 안돼요. 숫자키까지 모든 키등이 다 붙어 있어서 손가락이 찾아가기 힘들더군요. 전부 다 청축으로 구매했는데, 같은 축임에도 느낌이 또 다 다르더군요.
@@s-mo A pity, but understandable if they're still a small company. I'm interested to hear why you reckon ANSI is better for coding with? I'm a software engineer, and it's honestly something I've never thought about, since pretty much all UK keyboards are ISO layout, so you get used to what you use most often
@@MrSpleenboy Neat, RU-vid just swallowed my long-winded reply. UK ISO is fine I think, the context for my reply was that the environment I worked in for almost a decade basically split between ANSI and DE ISO layouts. I find direct access to []\{|};':" nicer than using AltGr :) In any case doing ISO would be nice, along with the option of an "extended set" of keycaps to cover the most common languages.
@@s-mo Yeah, with UK ISO you get direct access to all of those characters (well, you need shift for some, but it beats AltGr for sure). Thanks for that, I didn't realise DE ISO was that different, and I completely understand your coding comment context now :)
@@andrewgarberXYZ the biggest difference for me(beside the keypad) is the connectivity. The Keychron is Bluetooth with a bit of delay if you're doing any gaming and I had some problem recently with some keys either not pressing or double pressing, and the fact that you need to double press a button to get it out of sleep mode, on the other hand the nuphy has 2.4 GH wireless connection which is fast, responsive and it wakes up upon pressing a button and registered that key. The keycaps on the keychron are ABS plastic while on the air 96 are doubleshot PBT and they feel a lot nicer. There's also the sound when you type. The k1 sounds tiny and I'm pretty sure it's because of the thin case while the air 96 sounds thocky.I have brown switches on both of them but on nuphy they are version 2.0 and factory lubed
Thanks for the discount code. Just bought mine today to replace my Keychron K3. Wanted the Wisteria switches, but heard that the Gateron Browns were similar, so got them instead as they were in stock. Can't wait for it to come in.
I really like the NuPhy keyboards. I wish they had an ortholinear model of either the 75 or 60. I would profusely throw my wallet at them. A NyPhy 60 with 1U keys and a 2U spacebar. That would be the dream.
ortho is a really small niche, and if you've tried 40% ortho and smaller you'll see how unnecessary it is to have more keys - it literally goes against the purpose of having an ortho keyboard
Hello :3ildcat, I am a noob when it comes to making keyboards. I am attempting to make my own soon and wanted to ask you a question. I've seen you do a thing with your stabilizers, you take them apart and put the rods on a flat surface. If it is uneven on either end, you then bend it to make it as flat and straight as possible. My question is why do you do this? Does it effect performance?
I’m not :3ildcat but I can give a basic response. Short answer: Yes! Long answer: uneven stabs can cause rattling sounds as well as (as I’m sure you can imagine) uneven stabilization which causes your keys to tilt to one side or the other or even feel lose. I currently have to take my stabs back out of my daily keyboard in order to balance them again because they got bent from use (it’s rare, but it happens!).
The is no ISO variant and therefore no full support for anything else then ANSI-US - you could use a modified ANSI but AFAIK there aren't any low profile Keycaps for any ISO-variant available other than with buying a whole low profile Keyboard from Keychron and harvest them from there.
I have been waiting for a sale and finally picked up one of these with the fun Shiokaze blue caps for my nautical themed office. Thanks for explaining the key command combos. Some of them were a little confusing on the instruction sheet but they are actually super simple with your help.
Do you know if there is a true Mac mode such that there is an Option/Alt key on the right of the keyboard (without switching the correctly assigned keys on the left)? It seems that the FN key on the right would need to be mapped to Option/Alt. Does the Mac mode do this?
Very interested to feel how these NuPhy switches type compared to CHERRY MXs, might make some keyboards that can use these switches if they are as good as some of the claims on here. Willing to trade the good sound on the CHERRY MXs for the lower height of these switches if they feel good enough to type on.
