Our Verdict

NuPhy Air75 V2 [Air60 V2, Air96 V2]

NuPhy Kick75

The NuPhy Kick75 and the NuPhy Air75 V2 are both wireless mechanical keyboards. The Kick75 comes in either a standard- or low-profile version, and NuPhy offers separate conversion kits that let you switch between the two. In contrast, the Air75 V2 is only available as a low-profile keyboard, but it has better overall build quality and comes in additional compact sizes, including 60% and 96% layouts.
