SUMMARY: The NuPhy Air75 V2 is easily best *pre-built* low-profile keyboard I’ve used. It’s built like a truck (heavy with a premium feel), and it has all the best features money can buy these days (and it’s QMK compatible!!). It even fits on most laptops! Pair this with one of the super fun cases from NuPhy, and this is an amazing travel keyboard!

Below is my thorough review of the Keychron K12. To be frank, I’m just a weeeee bit of a Keychron fan… I own 5 different versions of these (in different sizes), and truthfully, they’re all dang good! ?‍️ But what about this new(ish) 60% layout? Overall thoughts: The K12 is really well built, but the spacebar tends to be much louder than the rest of the keyboard (more than most other keyboards), and the sound might strike you as a little hollow, and the high profile might mean you need a wrist rest (maybe). But for the price (under $75), the K12 is still loaded with features, including Bluetoot ..read more

Lots of people are calling the NK Silk Olivia switches the “best stock linear switches.” (Stock = you don’t need to lube them). Are they though? How do they feel right out of the box? This is my NK Silk Olivia Switch Review (and sound test). My Overall Review: The NK Silk Olivia does come pre-lubed with Krytox 205g, making them the most “convenient” linear switch. The sound is higher-pitched (rather than thocky) and pleasant, but they get “clacky” when you hit them hard. They feel smooth (not scratchy and with very little wobble). And at $0.50 per switch, these are a FANTASTIC linear switch th ..read more
