The NuPhy Field75 is a compact (75%) wireless mechanical keyboard, and it's NuPhy's first keyboard explicitly designed for gaming. This keyboard has several expressive colorways and includes various extra features, including rotary knobs, dedicated macro keys, and retro-style DIP switches. In addition to its gaming performance, NuPhy emphasizes this keyboard's typing quality and acoustics. It has layers of silicone-dampening material inside the case and what NuPhy calls a GhostBar, a spacebar fitted with polycarbonate and silicone pieces to help dampen the hollow sound spacebars often make. You can buy this keyboard in a range of tactile or linear switches, and it has a hot-swappable PCB, so you can easily change the switches for those you prefer.

Our Verdict

0.0
Gaming 

The NuPhy Field75 is a remarkable gaming keyboard with very low and consistent latency performance that makes it well-suited for playing games in any genre at any competitive level. It also has excellent build quality and is available in various tactile or linear switch types. The PCB is hot-swappable, so you can use different switches if you prefer. This keyboard has a standard high-profile design, which means it can be fatiguing to use for longer periods without a wrist rest. There isn't a wrist rest included, but NuPhy sells wrist rests separately on their website.

Pros
  • Excellent build quality.
  • Outstanding latency performance.
  • Eight dedicated macro keys.
Cons
  • Macro keys can't be programmed directly on the keyboard.
0.0
Office 

The NuPhy Field75 is good for office use. It has excellent build quality, and layers of dampening material inside the case and spacebar make it very quiet. It also has compatibility modes for Windows and macOS and connects wirelessly with up to three devices simultaneously via Bluetooth. The ergonomics are acceptable, but the standard, high-profile design means it's most comfortable to use with a wrist rest. There isn't a wrist rest included in the box, but NuPhy sells wrist rests separately on their site.

Pros
  • Excellent build quality.
  • Multi-device pairing with up to three devices simultaneously.
  • Connects wirelessly via USB receiver or Bluetooth.
Cons
  • Stock keycaps don't have shine-through legends, so you can't read legends in a darker room.
  • Macro keys can't be programmed directly on the keyboard.
0.0
Mobile/Tablet 

Although it isn't designed specifically for it, the NuPhy Field75 is okay for use with mobile devices. It has excellent build quality, can connect wirelessly with up to three devices simultaneously via Bluetooth, and has outstanding compatibility with mobile operating systems. That said, while it's also reasonably compact, it's quite thick and very heavy for its size, so it isn't very portable.

Pros
  • Excellent build quality.
  • Multi-device pairing with up to three devices simultaneously.
  • Connects wirelessly via USB receiver or Bluetooth.
Cons
  • Fairly bulky and very heavy compared to dedicated keyboards designed for mobile use.

Programming 

The NuPhy Field75 is great for programming. It has excellent build quality, eight programmable macro keys, and can connect wirelessly via a USB receiver or with up to three devices via Bluetooth. It also has layers of dampening material inside the case and spacebar, making it very quiet and satisfying to type on. It has full RGB backlighting, but the stock keycaps don't have shine-through legends, so you can't read them in darker rooms. It also has a standard high-profile design, which means it can be tiring to use for longer periods without a wrist rest, which isn't included but is sold separately.

Pros
  • Excellent build quality.
  • Eight dedicated macro keys.
Cons
  • Stock keycaps don't have shine-through legends, so you can't read legends in a darker room.
  • Macro keys can't be programmed directly on the keyboard.

Entertainment / HTPC 

The NuPhy Field75 is acceptable for entertainment or home theatre PC setups. It has excellent build quality and connects wirelessly via its USB receiver or Bluetooth. It's also fairly compact, although it's quite heavy for its size. It has full RGB backlighting, but the stock keycaps don't have shine-through legends, so you can't read them in the dark. Additionally, while it has a volume knob on the left side of the keyboard, it lacks dedicated media keys.

Pros
  • Excellent build quality.
  • Connects wirelessly via USB receiver or Bluetooth.
Cons
  • Stock keycaps don't have shine-through legends, so you can't read legends in a darker room.
  • No dedicated media keys.

    Differences Between Sizes And Variants

    This keyboard is available in several colorways with several different stock switch options. We bought and tested this keyboard in the Ethereal color option with NuPhy Polaris switches. We also bought NuPhy's acrylic two-tone wrist rest, which is sold separately in various colorways. The unit we tested has stock keycaps that don't have shine-through legends. That said, NuPhy sells an alternate set of shine-through keycaps available for separate purchase on NuPhy's website. You can see the label of the unit we bought and tested here.

    Popular Keyboard Comparisons

    The NuPhy Field75 is a compact (75%) wireless mechanical keyboard. It's also Nuphy's first dedicated gaming keyboard. Unlike previous NuPhy releases that have bottlenecked wireless polling rates, this keyboard has a wireless polling rate of 1000Hz, offering lower latency and much more stable and consistent gaming performance well-suited for playing fast-paced games at a casual or competitive level. Similar to models in NuPhy's Halo series of keyboards, NuPhy has emphasized the typing quality and acoustics of this keyboard by including multiple layers of sound-dampening silicone in the case and adding a silicone and polycarbonate fitting in the spacebar. Additionally, like other NuPhy models and similar keyboards produced by Keychron, these keyboards emphasize full compatibility between Windows and macOS systems with a hotkey combination to switch between modes and extra included keycaps for both operating systems.
