The NuPhy Halo75 V2 is a compact and versatile mechanical keyboard designed for enthusiasts who appreciate high-quality craftsmanship and customizable features. Here's a description:
The NuPhy Halo75 V2 is a compact mechanical keyboard that packs a punch with its 75% layout, striking a balance between functionality and space efficiency. It features a robust aluminum case that not only enhances its durability but also adds a touch of premium aesthetics to any desktop setup.
Equipped with hot-swappable mechanical switches, the Halo75 V2 allows users to easily customize their typing experience by swapping out switches without soldering. This feature caters to both enthusiasts who enjoy experimenting with different switch types and those who prioritize convenience and flexibility.
The keyboard offers a choice of mechanical switch options, including popular varieties such as Cherry MX, Gateron, and Kailh, ensuring users can select switches that suit their preferences for typing feel and sound profile.
In terms of customization, the Halo75 V2 includes RGB backlighting with various lighting effects and brightness levels. Users can personalize the lighting to match their mood or aesthetic preferences, creating a visually appealing and immersive typing experience.
Connectivity options for the NuPhy Halo75 V2 include both wired (via USB-C) and wireless modes, providing versatility for different setups and preferences. The wireless capability allows for convenient use with multiple devices, enhancing productivity and convenience.
10x wireless speed, 6x new sound mods, over 9000x RGB awesomeness, still 0x compromise.
Many things have changed on Halo75's V2, even the classic look has taken a major makeover to look more Halo. What has never, and will never change however, is our commitment to only use the bests and the maxed-outs to build the keyboard for our pros and heavy-hitter.
A glow-rious sight:
If there ever was a market segment Halo positions itself in, it is being both a device that can handle every task you throw at it, and an absolute gorgeous looker. Its wavy side columns, solid unibody aluminum frame, and its unabashed light maximalism, all serve to enhance this role. In the design of the V2 we have only doubled down on the investment: the completely redesigned semi-transparent bottom case extends the layer-ness of the Ionic side columns into the third dimension, while the Gem-style nameplate LED brings a fun twist to Halo's impressive lineup of functional lights. When the lights go on, the bottom case 'merges' into the Halo light bands to create the most amazing light effects ever seen on a NuPhy keyboard.
A brighter Halo. Besides the bottom case, the much more powerful LEDs of the Halo75 V2 is the other hero behind the spectacular light display available on it. With 8 different kinds of lights of different illumination styles and placements, Halo75 V2 is well placed to meet the most particular, demanding working and aesthetic needs.
SignalRGB support. A sneak peek of what Halolight is capable of, now fully supporting SignalRGB , you can customize Halolight the same way you do with keybindings and macros in VIA, and control the lighting of other SignalRGB compatible hardwares as well.
5 diverse color choices. Don't worry, the black and white are not going away, yet the Halo character deserves a new interpretation too. Retaining the simplicity of the neutral colorways, the three new themes serve to impart the expressive power of Halolight 2.0 when it is active, and heighten the dualistic beauty of the case in each of its own ways when unilluminated.
Hi-Fi Halo:
Yup, here goes our acclaimed 6-piece sound stack again, landing on a fully assembled keyboard for the first time. With sound concentration and purity so out of this world, we decide it is better not to be silent about it. Oh, and there is the gasket mount too! From now on, Halo users can enjoy a sound experience and cushioned feel tailor made for a custom keyboard, without having to build one. Sometimes, it is just that simple.
PCB Gasket Mount. A deradicalization from Gem's plate gasket mount, Halo75 v2's PCB gasket mount delivers a more balanced feel and sound.
A new height to reach new heights.
Introducing mSA, the high-profile sibling of our much imitated nSA profile, which after more than two years of development has now became available for Halo users. Small tweaks are many: a little adjustment to the SA height for more ergonomics, the larger round surface and symmetric design are a nod to the nSA. What is difficult to miss however, even in darkness, are the light emitting homing bars, illuminated by south-facing LEDs they are designed to be just bright enough to help with the guidance without being distractive.
Finding your way home with the lights. Built with a triple shot injection process, NuPhy's proprietary light-emitting homing bars exploits the south-facing nature of the switches for the illumination, which helps you finding them at much extended ranges. The built-in power saving feature ensures that you will not see in the battery life the immediate difference in the way you interact with the keyboard.
The GhostBar goes.
Sorry we almost forgot it, it is usually too quiet, you know. For those of you who have not heard about the GhostBar, it is our hollow sound suppression spacebar keycap that utilizes a series of small internal chambers to make a sound so similar to other keys that it becomes almost inaudible. We have upgraded it to the mSA profile so it is in even better harmony with the other keys.
The dark side goes bright. South facing shine through keycaps are awesome, they let out mesmerising lights and pleasant sounds without the physical contact problem, have great switch compatibilities...except that they didn't exist, until now. As the first set of south facing shine through keycaps, bold fonts and audacious colorways are chosen to match its disruptiveness. Coated with an equally groundbreaking technique, Canopus shine-through keycaps will shine on your desktop like never before.
Polling way ahead in the 1000Hz race:
We have taken our latency minimization game to a new level on Halo75 V2. Through the combined effort of an state of the art 1000Hz 2.4G SoC and optimization/testing done by our engineers, Halo users can now access the wired-like, pro-gaming level wireless performance on their already OP keyboards.
Mac, Windows, Linux...you name it. VIA's key remapping and macro work seamlessly on all major desktop platforms, or any that supports a browser, make it even easier to customize Halo75 V2 to your heart's content.
A shortcut to all Mac shortcuts. Just one toggle of the completely redesigned OS switch, right next to the connection mode switch, and you will get access to all the Mac-specific function keys including Do Not Disturb, Spotlight.... Mac-tivate your keyboard has never been easier.
