Well I fell down the custom keyboard world.

Have just got a Nuphy Air96 v2 in Lunar Gray with Wisteria switches. Loving it, typing is do much more fun than on most "gamer" keyboards and I'll no doubt go for a custom non-low profile build one day. Or I'll just buy a blue lagoon Halo:P

For now, this is pretty good out of the box.

So having had a few days with my Monsgeek M1 V5….

Fn key is no longer green, no idea how I did that...

Hilariously just checked store page reviews and one jumped out at me: “Minor deduction, for the FN key, that seems to do whatever it wants. Sometimes it's glowing green all the time, other times it's off. Some actual setting for that or a Note how to configure it would be nice.”

Looks like I’m not the only one then!

Just found this on reddit.

The LED under the FN key shows it's charging (charging indicator) and turns off when fully charged.

I picked up a Nuphy Halo 65 a couple years ago for like £110 (IIRC) which came with all the extras including optional keycaps and wrist wrest and I genuinely love the keyboard so much that I want to buy another one like the Air 65.

Worth every penny, even at full price. I own a Keychron Q2 and just didn't like it nearly as much.

Yes, it's the US layout but that doesn't really bother me. If Nuphy made an ISO UK layout I'd die with happiness.

I now want to get better tactile switches but I'm wary that if I use it in an office environment again, the existing switches (Baby Kangaroo) were already annoying to my co-workers so something noisier will be unacceptable.

I have the same keyboard and use milky yellow pro switched.

Although I prefer the feeling of my Keychain Q1 with the same switches. The key caps at home is much nicer, and sounds better too.

Fair enough. What works for each person I suppose.

Have you tried the Halo with tactile switches?

I have linear switches and can't stand them on any of my keyboards. The Keychron has a fairly high angle for my wrists and really needs a wrist rest to be comfortable (somewhat of a similar issue with the Halo 65 but not as severe I find).
