WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.028
- So I feel like I want the loudest clickiest keyboard if I'm gonna do any of this business.

00:00:04.028 --> 00:00:07.990
- Ok. - Yeah. - Do you need a keyboard and a new Waifu?

00:00:07.990 --> 00:00:11.260
NuPhy thinks you do. And, they've got the new NuPhy Air75

00:00:11.260 --> 00:00:16.197
wireless mechanical keyboard. It's got the world's thinnest spherical PBT keycaps.

00:00:16.197 --> 00:00:21.080
And this thing is pretty thin in general. It's got I think, 16 mm

00:00:21.080 --> 00:00:27.360
at the thinnest point or something like that. Let's open it up and get you guys a few more shots of it.

00:00:27.360 --> 00:00:30.591
I don't even know what her name is. - [Jono] NuPhy.

00:00:30.591 --> 00:00:35.621
- Yeah, just NuPhy probably, right? Yeah. Okay, so yeah, you got your keyboard here. This little box.

00:00:35.621 --> 00:00:42.803
These are just accessories, probably. I think it comes with like, you know, switch puller and keycaps and cable.

00:00:44.470 --> 00:00:49.000
Oh, and it's got feet. Yeah, so this thing has detachable feet, which is pretty cool. They're magnetic.

00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:52.420
So, you don't have to... like they're trying to make it thin wherever they can.

00:00:52.420 --> 00:00:57.560
So they can't even like flip up the feet. They've gotta put 'em on magnets so that they're detachable

00:00:57.560 --> 00:01:02.750
and you can put them on as you want. 'Cause you know, you need this thing razor thin

00:01:02.750 --> 00:01:06.071
to travel with or whatever, (coughs) whatever you wanna do.

00:01:06.071 --> 00:01:10.800
It's an Okay cable. Nothing special. USB 80 USB-C.

00:01:10.800 --> 00:01:15.060
Oh, okay. Sample switches. So, oh, so it's using these

00:01:15.060 --> 00:01:16.220
low-profile

00:01:18.250 --> 00:01:22.110
gaterons, I think. So they've got red, blue and brown gaterons.

00:01:22.110 --> 00:01:25.910
Super thin low profile like, look at that. That's great.

00:01:25.910 --> 00:01:29.963
The USB dongle is not labeled.

00:01:31.430 --> 00:01:34.950
So, be careful you don't lose it otherwise you're not gonna know what it's for.

00:01:34.950 --> 00:01:38.000
Or I guess if it's the only unlabeled stick you have,

00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:41.810
you'll know it's for your NuPhy. All the reviews I was reading were like pretty decent

00:01:41.810 --> 00:01:46.140
and yeah. Even just holding this thing, like, it's pretty nice.

00:01:46.140 --> 00:01:49.490
It's not perfect but for the thinnest keyboard around,

00:01:49.490 --> 00:01:52.510
or at least, you know, one of the thinnest mechanical keyboards around,

00:01:52.510 --> 00:01:55.530
it's pretty decent. There's not much... like there is some flex to it,

00:01:56.420 --> 00:02:00.950
but really you're going for portability

00:02:00.950 --> 00:02:05.878
and just a super thin low profile minimalist desk set up kind of thing.

00:02:05.878 --> 00:02:09.811
(keyboard clicks) So it feels okay. It sounds okay.

00:02:09.811 --> 00:02:14.340
This is a linear. So it must be the reds. To each their own man, if this, you know,

00:02:14.340 --> 00:02:19.650
if you like clickies, go for it. Uh, it's got LEDs on either side.

00:02:19.650 --> 00:02:23.650
There's some here and then there's one here. Ooh, it's got a little badge. This is like a mirror finish

00:02:23.650 --> 00:02:26.720
on this thing too. It's actually really nice.

00:02:26.720 --> 00:02:30.100
And then the feet attach up here or I guess you can put them down here too properly.

00:02:30.100 --> 00:02:35.430
There are switches on the back for Windows and Mac toggleable. And then what's this guy?

00:02:35.430 --> 00:02:38.550
Off wired and wireless. Oh, okay, so you just switch it.

00:02:38.550 --> 00:02:41.560
That's fine. Or between if you want wired and wireless.

00:02:41.560 --> 00:02:44.880
It's nice having an off switch. Some of them just they don't have off switches.

00:02:44.880 --> 00:02:49.990
They just turn off automatically after like 10 minutes. But it's kind of annoying if you wanna put it in your bag

00:02:49.990 --> 00:02:53.580
right away, you just flick it to off. That's great. You can just throw it in and don't worry about

00:02:53.580 --> 00:02:58.580
any other key presses happening. The other thing that they're offering here

00:02:58.580 --> 00:03:00.600
is these razor thin

00:03:01.990 --> 00:03:07.840
keycaps. They're spherical so if you like the other, like non-spherical ones the cups that are like a U shape,

00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:11.903
then I don't know. I mean, I guess you're out of luck. But it feels okay.

00:03:11.903 --> 00:03:16.533
(keyboard clicks) It's not a very deep like cupping on it. So you're not gonna be, you know,

00:03:17.400 --> 00:03:21.950
missing your keys or anything just because you can't move your finger over fast enough.

00:03:21.950 --> 00:03:25.770
but it's noticeable. I love the color scheme, the gray,

00:03:25.770 --> 00:03:30.540
like the kind of space gray with this darker gray on the back and then just a few...

00:03:31.470 --> 00:03:37.470
lot pastel, but like muted colors, like this orangy here and then the yellow here and the what

00:03:37.470 --> 00:03:40.830
teal, I guess up here. It's nice.

00:03:40.830 --> 00:03:43.890
So just look at the box. It's got a 2500 mAh power battery.

00:03:43.890 --> 00:03:48.670
It's got these low profile switches I already mentioned, ultra thin PVT keycaps yeah.

00:03:48.670 --> 00:03:54.246
So it's a compact 75% layout, which means you still get like your Up Arrow

00:03:54.246 --> 00:03:59.300
keys and stuff. And then a bunch of stuff like delete and Home and End in case you use any of those in your

00:03:59.300 --> 00:04:02.410
F keys. So you're not missing out. It's basically like a laptop keyboard.

00:04:02.410 --> 00:04:05.510
And this thing is actually meant to go over laptops

00:04:05.510 --> 00:04:08.825
and you can then use it. So if you... - [Jono] Wait, what?

00:04:08.825 --> 00:04:13.230
- Yeah, it's meant to go over laptops. So if you buy a laptop, but you absolutely cannot stand the keyboard on it for

00:04:13.230 --> 00:04:17.200
whatever reason, you know, maybe it's just a membrane and you just absolutely cannot

00:04:17.200 --> 00:04:21.010
deal with membrane keyboards. Or maybe you just want something that looks a little nicer

00:04:21.010 --> 00:04:25.290
and you're willing to carry it around with you. You can take this guy and just pop it over whenever you

00:04:25.290 --> 00:04:31.970
want. I'll show you that in a sec, for now let's see what keycaps they sent us in the sample box.

00:04:31.970 --> 00:04:35.032
Oh, it's the carrying case. Oh, this thing's great.

00:04:35.032 --> 00:04:38.860
Okay. Yeah. Nevermind. It's not the keycaps. I was wrong. It's the carrying case.

00:04:38.860 --> 00:04:43.070
Oh, what? Oh my God. (Jono laughs) Oh my God.

00:04:43.070 --> 00:04:46.770
You get a poster I'm pretty sure this I'm sold now.

00:04:46.770 --> 00:04:50.380
I mean, I was really, I was already on there on the side of the fence,

00:04:51.640 --> 00:04:55.530
but they give you a poster and stickers.

00:04:55.530 --> 00:04:59.280
Can I keep these stickers? Oh my God. This is amazing. - [Jono] You can keep one.

00:04:59.280 --> 00:05:04.022
- I can keep one? Okay I get one of the stickers. I'm absolutely fitting that somewhere. So yeah.

00:05:04.022 --> 00:05:09.310
(Jono laughs) You get your own baller, your own poster for NuPhy, if you really wanna simp over NuPhy here.

00:05:09.310 --> 00:05:12.440
I honestly, I hope that's her name. I don't know what else it is.

00:05:12.440 --> 00:05:17.200
I guess she's got a badge. - [Jono] It's not simping when it's for love. (laughs)

00:05:17.200 --> 00:05:20.310
- If you, I mean, honestly, actually kind of like this as wall art

00:05:20.310 --> 00:05:25.760
even though it's a quick start guide, this is great, but I mean really, come on, you got it.

00:05:25.760 --> 00:05:28.900
This is what you got to put on the wall. So aside from the carrying case,

00:05:28.900 --> 00:05:34.070
which I'll show you guys in a sec here, they did send us keycaps, labeled keycaps.

00:05:34.070 --> 00:05:37.740
So I should have seen this, okay So yeah, here's all the other stuff I was expecting.

00:05:37.740 --> 00:05:39.940
You've got a keycap puller... switch puller.

00:05:42.330 --> 00:05:46.780
Ooh, this is nice. They come with this little foam insert to cover them.

00:05:46.780 --> 00:05:51.350
They are, oh, they're not loose, okay. But there's not too much. I mean, yeah,

00:05:51.350 --> 00:05:54.120
I guess you were held by this plastic and this foam. So that's totally fine.

00:05:55.523 --> 00:05:59.350
So I guess my one complain about the keycaps is I would've liked... They're just kind of replacements

00:05:59.350 --> 00:06:03.580
and I would've liked a secondary color scheme or something. Okay, what else we got? We got the feet.

00:06:03.580 --> 00:06:07.110
We'll put the feet on. I really would've liked a better switch puller.

00:06:07.110 --> 00:06:10.860
I really like those ones that are like plastic in the middle and then wire on both ends.

00:06:10.860 --> 00:06:14.240
And one half is a switch puller and the other half is a keycap puller

00:06:14.240 --> 00:06:16.133
Oh, there is one. Oh my God.

00:06:17.600 --> 00:06:20.820
They include it too. Oh, these guys are the best.

00:06:20.820 --> 00:06:25.960
Look at this. These are the best. Yes, it comes right off.

00:06:25.960 --> 00:06:30.340
Yeah, they are the reds. Okay. Oh, you pull these from the side I think.

00:06:30.340 --> 00:06:34.880
Yeah I've never used these low-profile guys. This thing's hot swap, which is always a bonus.

00:06:34.880 --> 00:06:37.950
They've tried really hard when designing this to keep the

00:06:37.950 --> 00:06:43.070
frame up so that you don't see your switches so that everything is like integrated as one solid piece basically.

00:06:43.070 --> 00:06:47.770
And it's all nice and clean. I do like that aesthetic, but I'm also like,

00:06:47.770 --> 00:06:51.260
I buy really colorful and interesting and nice switches,

00:06:51.260 --> 00:06:57.470
right. So I actually like seeing them, So for something like this, I would have loved an option where they remove this kind of

00:06:57.470 --> 00:07:02.350
top part of the case here, And then you can actually see all your switches underneath.

00:07:02.350 --> 00:07:07.620
Yeah, so this is easy. I mean, they're magnets and they've got this little slot right there

00:07:07.620 --> 00:07:12.834
that you fit onto the tiny rubber feet. So that's the other thing too is it's got rubber feet built

00:07:12.834 --> 00:07:16.960
in, so it's not gonna slide around when it's on your table and it's pretty light.

00:07:16.960 --> 00:07:20.560
I think it's a little over 500 grams. So it's a little over a pound.

00:07:20.560 --> 00:07:24.669
The feet are great, good option kind of sucks that they're not built in

00:07:24.669 --> 00:07:28.330
but you're not gonna be able to stick these anywhere without like... so like what's your other option,

00:07:28.330 --> 00:07:31.480
putting some cheap flip out thing that could break or it

00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:35.930
doesn't look nearly as cool. Like I actually love how they went with this colorful

00:07:35.930 --> 00:07:39.941
rubber feet that kind of match the Enter Key. So this case is great.

00:07:39.941 --> 00:07:44.941
My only problem with it is the big NuPhy badge up here.

00:07:45.790 --> 00:07:50.630
It's not bad. Like there's so much more egregious logo and branding on

00:07:50.630 --> 00:07:56.110
certain carrying cases and whatnot. And it fits the rest of it. Like from an aesthetics point

00:07:56.110 --> 00:08:00.360
it looks okay. I just don't like when branding is all over the place,

00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:04.850
it's really not bad though. So it's got this, it's all vegan leather,

00:08:04.850 --> 00:08:09.270
which is whatever it feels pretty good. Strong marketing move. I don't know who came up with the term vegan leather

00:08:09.270 --> 00:08:13.160
but those guys are geniuses. So you open it up. It's got this foam insert to make sure it doesn't get

00:08:13.160 --> 00:08:17.883
deformed. This thing acts as both a carrying case and a stand.

00:08:19.620 --> 00:08:22.853
Oh, it's supposed to go here. You can see. Yeah.

00:08:22.853 --> 00:08:25.833
You can see the little feet indents to tell you where to put the keyboard.

00:08:28.290 --> 00:08:31.300
Yeah. Just sits in there nicely. Oh, that's great.

00:08:31.300 --> 00:08:35.323
And then it just kind of wraps up.

00:08:38.950 --> 00:08:43.550
It's a little flimsy. Like this is not, you could use this,

00:08:43.550 --> 00:08:47.890
but it's really not gonna hold everything

00:08:47.890 --> 00:08:53.240
if you're, I mean on a, on a plane, you're probably safe on a train maybe not so much.

00:08:53.240 --> 00:08:57.020
Oh yeah. It's pretty good. So let's try typing on it. But before we turn it on,

00:08:57.020 --> 00:09:01.530
how about a message from our sponsors Seasonic, thanks to Seasonic for sponsoring today's video.

power supply. Check them out at the link below. Wow, It's Jonathan from Mac Address.

00:09:25.640 --> 00:09:30.850
Jonathan, this keyboard is meant for you. How... - The magic keyboard is the only keyboard I use

00:09:30.850 --> 00:09:34.050
- What do you think about this, here? - Do you need a MacBook?

00:09:34.050 --> 00:09:37.920
I heard you might need a MacBook. - Yeah, let's try it. Let's put it on top of the MacBook.

00:09:37.920 --> 00:09:39.920
So this thing can go over your keyboard.

00:09:41.926 --> 00:09:45.180
Apparently. - [Jonathan] Well this has the butterfly keyboard,

00:09:45.180 --> 00:09:49.748
so you definitely would want to. I hope that it's battery life. - Yeah that bad boy.

00:09:49.748 --> 00:09:53.150
(keyboard typing) It doesn't cover your screen or anything.

00:09:53.150 --> 00:09:57.416
- I don't like the gray. - No! I thought the gray would be like the selling point

00:09:57.416 --> 00:10:00.540
- I hate to say this. - Yeah.

00:10:00.540 --> 00:10:04.856
- But the colors, these are very Google-y. - Oh, that's funny.

00:10:04.856 --> 00:10:08.360
(crosstalk) - Today's Pixel Day

00:10:08.360 --> 00:10:12.780
- Yeah, yeah. - These are like the pixel six hole cut colors.

00:10:12.780 --> 00:10:17.610
I don't know. I'm so newbie, when it comes to keyboards,

00:10:17.610 --> 00:10:21.280
I feel like I want the loudest, clickiest keyboard if I'm gonna do any of this business.

00:10:21.280 --> 00:10:25.776
- Okay. - Yeah. - But you know what the funny thing is, I actually,

00:10:25.776 --> 00:10:29.260
I already don't like this nearly as much.

00:10:29.260 --> 00:10:32.490
- This is great. (chuckles) - So is it just the angle though?

00:10:32.490 --> 00:10:38.090
Cause you can put feet on this guy. - No, no. - That's straight up then typing experience and the,

00:10:38.090 --> 00:10:42.780
and the look of it and everything. You can get it in clickey. - Is this pre production?

00:10:42.780 --> 00:10:45.860
- No, pretty sure this is final. - Why are some keys higher than others?

00:10:45.860 --> 00:10:51.430
Like the X look at the X. - Yeah. And the shift is like ever so slightly higher.

00:10:51.430 --> 00:10:55.230
It's pretty minor though. - That's not minor.

00:10:55.230 --> 00:10:59.060
- Okay. Fine. The X. Yeah, the X is a little taller and I can't squish it down all that much.

00:10:59.060 --> 00:11:02.090
- Well, no, I kind of squished it down a little bit there. - Oh you did squish it down.

00:11:02.090 --> 00:11:05.545
You fixed it. - Yeah. - So did you put all these on?

00:11:05.545 --> 00:11:08.850
- No, no, no, no. So your first typing session has to be intense.

00:11:08.850 --> 00:11:12.290
- Yeah, really get in there. - This is very playful.

00:11:12.290 --> 00:11:15.353
You know, I have an iMac sort of situation. - Yeah.

00:11:15.353 --> 00:11:19.990
- This is very serious. - That's a serious one. That's the business - I got a brand new MacBook Pro in Space Grey.

00:11:19.990 --> 00:11:24.193
- Yeah, I'm Mr. Business doing all the business. Yeah. Go subscribe to Mac Address. You see more Jonathan,

00:11:25.300 --> 00:11:29.920
talking up all the Apple stuff that I'm not a big fan of. One thing I actually don't like about the cable that I

00:11:29.920 --> 00:11:33.410
didn't notice until now is that it's all black. And so once I plugged this in,

00:11:33.410 --> 00:11:37.940
it's just going to look kind of jarring or weird. Like, this is already gray.

00:11:37.940 --> 00:11:42.540
It matches the bottom, I guess, but you don't see the bottom all that much.

00:11:42.540 --> 00:11:45.630
Oh, and there is RGB underneath. It's really minimal though.

00:11:45.630 --> 00:11:49.220
Like you can't hardly see it at all because of how they've

00:11:49.220 --> 00:11:55.460
created the case in the keycaps to cover everything instead of having like that under the switch kind of look.

00:11:55.460 --> 00:12:00.883
So like I said, I don't like how the cable looks anyway. Let's use the dongle and go wireless mode. So, here we go.

00:12:06.960 --> 00:12:11.640
Jeez, I mean a 100 words per minute and 93% accuracy. It's not great.

00:12:11.640 --> 00:12:15.250
What tripped me up is even though I've been using XDA,

00:12:15.250 --> 00:12:18.380
I think it's how low profile everything is.

00:12:18.380 --> 00:12:23.380
I would get caught up on the keys as I moved to try to type

00:12:24.690 --> 00:12:28.430
something else. It starts at $109.95.

00:12:28.430 --> 00:12:34.630
At that price point for something this portable and versatile and slim, that's not bad,

00:12:34.630 --> 00:12:38.910
especially for mechanical option. I don't know if I would buy it personally because I don't do

00:12:38.910 --> 00:12:42.910
a lot of traveling. I basically just have my keyboard and desk set up and like,

00:12:42.910 --> 00:12:46.370
that's where, that's what I use. That's I'm done.

00:12:46.370 --> 00:12:49.650
But for anyone who like wants to go anywhere and who needs

00:12:49.650 --> 00:12:52.750
to bring a mechanical keyboard and not something membrane,

00:12:52.750 --> 00:12:55.990
I think that this is probably one of your most solid options.

00:12:55.990 --> 00:13:00.070
Especially if you get this case, get their little travel case here.

00:13:00.070 --> 00:13:03.260
So this is the Air75 wireless mechanical keyboard

00:13:03.260 --> 00:13:06.800
from NuPhy. It's pretty good product for the price.

00:13:06.800 --> 00:13:11.440
And if you like thin keyboards, make sure to get subscribed so that you can see us unbox,

00:13:11.440 --> 00:13:15.210
that new logic tech keyboard that we showed briefly. I mean, we've already put in, taken it out of the box,

00:13:15.210 --> 00:13:17.110
but we haven't done much else with it.
