Our Verdict

NuPhy Halo96 [Halo65, Halo75]

NuPhy Field75

The NuPhy Field75 and the NuPhy Halo75 are wireless mechanical keyboards with high-profile designs and compact (75%) form factors. The Field75 is more gaming-focused, with a higher wireless polling rate of 1000Hz and better gaming performance. It also has dedicated macro keys and several control knobs which the Halo75 lacks. On the other hand, the Halo75 has a bit more extensive RGB lighting, with a narrow lighting zone that wraps around the entire case, which the Field75 lacks.
