A few weeks ago I pre-ordered a nuphy gem80 solely based on the length of ad copy on the product page and the inclusion of videos depicting the typing sounds. It came in the other day and it's been everything I imagine I might have hoped it would be, had I actually read that product page.

update: one discord spelunking trip and 3 day firmware update later, this keyboard mostly performs the function of accepting my keypresses and accurately relaying them to the computer. mostly.

6/10 I brought this upon myself and do enjoy the weightiness + typing sounds. I had to bring out my old filco while I was doing the update (3 literal days to wipe + write the firmware memory page by page) and it felt like a cheap toy in comparison.

I think someone in this thread bought this - how is it? There's quite a few comments about reliability/debouncing issues but I find the brown/beige colour scheme so stunning I might pull the trigger regardless. Fukin love beige keyboards for some reason

See my recent reply for the details but debounce was a pretty big issue. Updated firmware is semi-available and also there’s a 3rd party fw that people seem to like that each solved the issue. I really like the build quality and overall do not regret my purchase.

I too went for the beige/brown and am now dutifully griming it up with tobacco smoke + ashes for full authenticity.

keychron’s not bad, I had a K6. My only issue was the lighting seemed to revert to max rainbow every now and then which was kinda distracting.
