Our Verdict

NuPhy Field75 HE

NuPhy Air60 HE

The biggest difference between the NuPhy Field75 HE and NuPhy Air60 HE is that the Field75 HE has a taller standard profile while the Air 60HE has a much thinner low profile. Also, note that the Field75 HE has a smaller 60% counterpart while the Air60 HE has a larger 75% counterpart in their respective lineups. Otherwise, they perform virtually the same, but the Field series keyboards feature additional hardware such as a decorative handle, a physical scroll wheel, and dedicated macro buttons.
