NuPhy Air60 V2

The Air60 V2 is NuPhy's thin and light 60% with a 64-key ANSI layout, a standard arrow cluster and a shrunken right Shift. NuPhy's page lists Gateron low-profile (KS-33) hot-swap sockets, an aluminum top frame with an ABS bottom, double-shot PBT keycaps, 2.4 GHz, Bluetooth 5.1 and wired USB-C connections, 1,000 Hz polling over 2.4 GHz and wired but 125 Hz over Bluetooth, a 2,500 mAh battery and QMK/VIA firmware. NuPhy's lab figures are 30 to 90 hours with lights on and up to 150 hours with lights off, at 463 g and 13.5 mm thick. AppleInsider described a refreshed design that keeps the thin case, with a plastic base it never saw crack, hot-swap and VIA options, and a more satisfying clack with the Wisteria tactile switches than the older Brown. How-To Geek found the board light and breezy to type on, with a thocky sound that suits a light touch, and called the tiny right Shift a big compromise; remapping the up arrow in VIA gave it a workaround. PCMag called it attractive and highly portable but best for use with a phone or tablet, noted the aluminum top keeps it rigid, and said the foldable feet need a lot of force to deploy and showed wear shavings. It also said the dongle has no storage slot on the board and that NuPhy offers no barebones version. Switch options differ by order, and the carrying case is a separate accessory. It is a travel and tablet board more than a desk centerpiece.
