Gaming Keyboards

[Colif]

My keyboard keeps disconnecting itself from USB so I have swapped it to its wireless dongle. Guess I will also have to reduce its RGB as well since it uses more battery now. I hadn't used dongle until now as its range isn't amazing... but it seems okay. Guess there is nothing obstructing it between me and PC.

Not sure if its related to running it off a hub. Their cables aren't the best. Prefer not to break two keyboards in one year with same reason from same company... start to see a pattern. Have to blame myself since most people don't use their keyboards the way I do.

Hate devices that are useless as soon as you break their USB connector... phones, Keyboards... anything that needs it to charge from. Broken a phone before as its USB connector broke, sucks as a reason to replace them... I have a wireless charger for it now. But other things are still potential victims. USB connectors breaking is why I don't like/use dongles to listen to music on my phone.

Guess I just use cable for charging now.

Disconnects might have been the hub so now I mainly have the mouse and keyboard dongles attached directly to PC. I have enough USB slots on PC.

As someone who has been an extreme USB hub user for years, it is almost a certainty that the problem was the hub. BTW is the hub independently powered or does it just distribute the power it gets from the PC?

Hub had its own power but it appears it would randomly disconnect from PC anyway.

Strange complaint, its too quiet.
Hall Effect keys with 8 layers of sound dampening foam

At least they are trying. Price is too high really.

Considering other Corsair keyboards are too loud. My last gaming kb was from them and the sound difference between it and a nuphy is pretty wide

hmm, i been waiting for Nuphy to update my model so it uses their software, they have swapped software on every one I have had so far and the latest is web based

They have finally updated it but they don't make it the colour I wanted

NuPhy Halo75 V2 IO Series Wireless Mechanical Keyboard

PCB Gasket Mount QMK/VIA compatibility 1000Hz polling rate Tri-mode connections, 2.4G, Bluetooth and wired USB-C Compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux

nuphy.com.au

last year it had 3 colours

• Black
• white
• Blue

This new variant swapped the Blue to Pink, which sucks as I was going to pick blue.

They still sell the old one but its more expensive than the new... has 5 colour choices. They dropped green and blue for this version.

Black is only sane option as the white keys are what I have now and are really hard to read at night. I would just buy the blue keycaps but they don't have them.

It also uses different switches. From what I can tell the Blush max are silent.

I don't really need one now but I might get one before mum starts using my PC and give her this one.

One change I noticed and then panicked about, is the new one replaces the magnetic logo that should be on the right corner of my old one but had fallen off. Lucky I remembered I had knocked kb onto ground a few days ago and the logo was down there. Attached again now. The new logo is just a part of the lighting system.

not sure why they removed the ghost bar, it was one of the things that made the kb different. Space bar is a dull thud

upside is they dramatically improved battery life by swapping to their own software. By about 1000 hours.

Still has best software, and its better than their last one.

Hello everyone. To avoid multiplying threads, I'm jumping in on this one.I need a 100% gaming and work keyboard that will work both wired and with a 2.4GHz dongle and have backlit key legends. After reviewing the available options, I was faced with the choice between the Keychron K10HE and the ENDORFY Thock V2 Wireless. Yes, I know, the former is magnetic, which offers greater flexibility in some respects (which I'm not sure I'll use) and is theoretically more durable. It also has a convenient USB cable, which isn't the case with its competitor. The ENDORFY, on the other hand, has a very sensible magnetic wrist rest system, and well, it's almost half the price.The main question is: what other significant differences are there that I haven't considered, which would you choose, and why?

My mistake — I have automatic translation turned on and didn’t notice that this isn’t a Polish forum XD
That also explains why not a single Endorfy keyboard was mentioned in the discussion even once…

You already mentioned most of the important stuff. The most important thing to me would be that you can adjust the actuation on the Keychron while the Endorphy is fixed; however, since the Endorphy is meant specifically for typists I'm sure the actuation feels good, but the Keychron is meant for gamers, and the natural actuation is very fast, which might make a difference. According to some people who use them (they don't use both. I'm just reading between the lines) The Endorphy sounds better when you are typing. It has a deep, premium sound while Keychron is just the traditional mechanical keyboard clank. The Endorphy is hot swappable. I don't believe the Keychron is, but I'm not sure. Usually those types of switches can't be.
