Our Verdict

NuPhy Field75 HE

ASUS ROG Azoth Extreme

The NuPhy Field75 HE and the ASUS ROG Azoth Extreme are both compact, high-end gaming keyboards. The NuPhy stands out for its magnetic Hall effect switches, which allow you to adjust the actuation and reset point of individual switches. It also has even lower latency. Meanwhile, the ASUS provides a more premium-feeling, satisfying typing feel. It also has a versatile color OLED display and supports wireless connectivity via Bluetooth and a 2.4GHz adapter.
