The best thing I bought this year: a portable mechanical keyboard
- The Verge praises the NuPhy Air60 V2 for its portability and distraction-free writing setup when paired with the Boox Palma 2 and NuFolio case.
- The setup supports three devices, enabling seamless movement of the keyboard across personal laptop, work laptop, and Palma 2.
- The reviewer describes the Air60 V2 as an improvement over a MacBook keyboard for extended writing sessions.
- Comfort trade-offs include a cramped 64-key layout and a shallow angle, which may affect long-term use.
- The author notes the Air60’s Moss switches offer satisfying thock without being too loud for public use.
- The NuFolio serves as a stand and keyboard cover, enhancing portability when paired with the Palma 2.
- The reviewer uses the setup for fiction writing and notes it supports Obsidian on Palma with the Air60 for focused work.
- The author highlights portability benefits for writing at bars or quiet spaces, including a standing desk setup.
- Despite cost considerations, the Air60 V2 is described as an indispensable part of the writer's routine after nine months.
- The Verge notes the keyboard’s 2.4GHz dongle is included, though the author relies on other connectivity options.
