Our Verdict

NuPhy Air60 HE

Lemokey P1 HE

Both the NuPhy Air60 HE and the Lemokey P1 HE are gaming keyboards with Hall effect switches. The NuPhy has a much slimmer and more portable low-profile design and significantly better raw gaming performance, but it only supports wired connectivity. On the other hand, the Lemokey supports wired or wireless connectivity with its 2.4Ghz receiver or Bluetooth. It also has a taller, normal profile design and more premium-feeling build quality with a solid aluminum case and softer gasket mount design.
