Nuphy

NuPhy occupies a narrow band deliberately: low-profile and compact mechanical keyboards, sold on industrial design and finish rather than on price. Twenty keyboards and eleven switches, and no keycaps or stabilizers at all.

The consistency is the story. All twenty keyboards are hot-swap and all twenty have RGB, nine run QMK, and every one of the eleven switches is lubed from the factory — no exceptions in either column, which is rare in this catalogue. Priced boards run $59 to $139.95 with a $109.95 median, the second-highest after Lofree. The Air and Halo lines split the range between genuinely low-profile and full-height compact; check the switch height before ordering caps, because low-profile NuPhy boards do not take standard Cherry-profile sets.
