> 3 dayI want to start this review by saying, I love this keyboard! I really like the textile feel of it — it feels very solid, it’s beautiful, etc. HOWEVER, the battery life fully depletes after a day and a half of working, which is unacceptable. I’m not sure if I just got a bad keyboard, but after browsing other reviews, I am inclined to think this is just how this keyboard is. If you need this to be an ONLY wireless keyboard, for more than 10 hours of work, do not buy this keyboard. You’re going to have to just leave it plugged in for it to work.

> 3 dayThis is my 3rd mechanical keyboard. I finally found one that I like. I really liked Keychron K3 because it had solid build quality, affordable, amazing RGB colors, and pretty design. But it was just too tall, and I really dont like using palm rest. Nuphy, while it costs 30% more, is worth the price of admission. It can be used without palm rest. All the keys have nice thock sound, so there is no need to modify to improve its acoustic. I also love its multi colored keyboard color scheme. I do use this keyboard exclusively in wired mode and I suggest most people do the same.

> 3 dayThis is my second-ever mechanical keyboard- Ill admit, the low profile switches took a day of getting used to, but now that Im used to it its just as fun to type on while being 10 times as pretty. The keycaps are incredibly high quality and well-designed: no bootleg misprint icons to be found here. The build feels reasonably solid and the hot-swappable switches are a nice touch for if I ever want to try tactiles in the future. Some criticisms: The 2.4GHz dongle, according to the manufacturer, is unencrypted- but also it has a very short range. This makes it fairly useless, as with Macs, Bluetooth is a more reliable option with a wider range, and on PC, the one thing youd want it for, namely writing a boot password, is a security risk. I do not have the equipment or time to test if sniffing is possible, but I would err on the side of caution and use wired mode when your PC is booting. Bluetooth, however, works okay during boot on Mac and in the Operating System on Linux. My second criticism concerns Mac/Linux operation: the firmware is proprietary, and currently, key remapping software is only available for Windows. The manufacturer says the key remapper will also be available for macOS Summer 2022, which I will update this review if they deliver, but Id rather they open source the software and let the community handle it.

> 3 dayI usually don’t leave reviews but there are some products that I feel people should know are worth the money. We ordered one of these for one of our boys who saw a TikTok that said these were the best gaming keyboards. After Christmas my other son had to have one which we order from the manufacturer. (He wanted a different color.). These are definitely worth the money. Very well made…. Even though I am not a gamer I want one of these. I love typing on it!!!

> 3 daySomehow got used one, on the box its even says renewed... If that was really just my mistake - then fine, thats ok, if it works - Im ok with that. But there were no keycap/switch puller and 2.4G reciever in the box. Overall quality of the keyboard is good.

> 3 dayI bought this keyboard for work, to help with my productivity and ease of use writing/programming on a Mac. However, it ended up being unusable for me. I wish I had returned it during the return window instead of trying to get used to it. The form factor and key spacing is smaller than a normal keyboard, which caused me to make many mistakes and so I had to slow down my typing a lot. I think it literally contributed to a kind of brain fog as I was concentrating on typing vs just doing it. This coupled with the fact that they placed a function key where the right-option key would be on a mac keyboard made it unusable for my programming and text editing workflow. (On Mac, option+left/right jumps between words and option+delete deletes whole words, and the right option is most convenient given the placement of those other keys.) I couldnt manage to rebind the function key to an option key in software (Karabiner Elements), ultimately because the function key was issuing some kind of vendor-specific/hardware-specific key code to the computer. I couldnt find software for Mac from the manufacturer that could rebind the keys for me. I also found the keys squishy and unpleasant to type on. Its a nice keyboard otherwise: good looks, nice lights, nice build quality. Other people here seem to love it, giving it great reviews which is why I tried it. But its now sitting elsewhere on my desk collecting dust while I plugged in some dime-a-dozen full-sized Dell keyboard that works way better for me. I cannot recommend this to anyone who programs or does a lot of text editing on Mac and is likely to encounter similar issues to me.

> 3 dayI have used about 5 different boards in the last year or so and could never quite find the one that worked for me. I liked the experience of using a mechanical keyboard but found I was much faster and more accurate on a laptop style keyboard. That’s where the Nuphy Air 75 comes in… It’s kind of the best of both worlds for me- I get the low profile switch activation along with the feeling and sound of a mechanical board. I love it! I can’t recommend it enough for someone who is in the same type of situation. Also it’s extremely versatile, I can be typing on my main computer and with the touch of a button switch to my laptop or phone which makes it so easy to multitask. If you are looking at this, I highly encourage you to give it a try!

> 3 dayI purchased my Nuphy Air75 about 7 months ago and while the battery life wasnt as good as the KeyChron to start, it had enough performance improvements that I decided to keep it. The fact that I could toggle between 2.4Ghz and multiple Bluetooth contacts via hotkeys instead of a physical switch is why I switched from Keychron to Nuphy. Its been a pretty good keyboard but there are a few drawbacks. The battery life was roughly 2 weeks as advertised before it needed a re-charge. After 7 months, I cannot even get 2 days before its blinking red again. As of the posting of this message 22 Sep 2022 I charged it to full 2 days ago and its now asking for a re-charge. That really sucks. The Nuphy Console is nice but it only works on PC. My personal computer is a Mac and my work computer is a PC. This keyboard allows me to toggle 2.4ghz (PC) and bluetooth (Mac), which is nice. Unfortunately, there is no way to customize the key map/hot keys unless you can run Console on a PC, which I cannot. Therefore, its useless. It has a good balance of features and Ill keep using it until it craps out, which given the way the battery life is looking now wont be too long. Ill have to think hard about buying another one.
