I’m coming from a Logitech G815.

What I liked:

  • low profile keycaps and body;
  • aluminum body;
  • USB port to plug my mouse into it instead of into the PC;
  • backlit;

What I disliked:

  • switches (presses would register way before feedback);
  • proprietary app for macros, and other configs;

What I’m looking for:

  • mechanical tactile/clicky;
  • backlighting (through the keycap, as I need to see the keys I’m pressing);
  • smaller form factor but with tenkey;
  • shipped to and from EU;
  • wired;
  • US international layout;

What I’d like on top, but I can compromise:

  • low profile keycaps and body;
  • RGB backlighting;
  • aluminum body;
  • adult/sleek design;

Usage will be gaming (no competitive) and a lot of typing. Budget is the main problem, as I’d like to spend no more than 100-125€ but can stretch it to 150€ if it means having more criteria met.

What I looked at so far: Logitech, but the prices aren’t quite there and I wasn’t happy with the G815’s switches; Keychron, but most of them don’t seem to have lighting that goes through the keycaps?; Akko, seem to have the same “issue”; Monsgeek, seems to be more niche stuff and I can’t find a small + 10key form factor.

Thanks in advance!

    Thanks, very pretty but they seem to serve only North America and a few SEA locations. Appreciated nonetheless!

      What makes you think that? Nuphy has been known to ship to quite a few countries all over the world. Their “where do we ship” page still lists pretty much all of the major countries in Europe. Unless something changed very recently I would still expect that to be the case.

        I worded it poorly, I meant they only have local stores in those locations. I’m wary of ordering from the USA at the moment because of the tariff war going on, wouldn’t want to get caught with my pants down

          I’m pretty sure they still ship directly from China. It’s been a minute since I ordered from them but all of my orders took several weeks due to overseas snail mail.
