Out of all keyboars I've tried, [NuPhy Air](https://nuphy.com/collections/keyboards/products/air75-v2) is
|
||
|
|
the best one so far. It has low latency, good key feel and key travel somewhere between notebook keyboards and full-size
|
||
|
|
mech keyboards.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I've tried many mech keyboards before, including super-minimalistic [Vortex Core](https://vortexgear.store/products/core) and
|
||
|
|
the split [ZSA Voyager](https://www.zsa.io/voyager). Most of the keyboards that have "layers" didn't quite work for me. Mostly
|
||
|
|
because my typing style makes use of "rolling over" the keys, and because of this I was frequently releasing the layer keys too
|
||
|
|
quickly. There are many people like me who have trouble typing using layer keys, and some solve this problem by adjusting the
|
||
|
|
key release timings.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Full-size [Varmilo](https://varmilo.com/products/cmyk?variant=45112265900251) keyboards worked a lot better, but I find their
|
||
|
|
keytravel too big. You have to type really hard in order to register a keypress.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
On the other hand, typing on laptop keyboards feels too shallow and unsatisfying. This is why I was super impressed by NuPhy Air,
|
||
|
|
which is something in-between. It is great to type on, and I've spent almost last 2 years using it non-stop.
