The Air75 V2 is a slim 75 percent mechanical keyboard that stands out for portability and a pleasant low profile feel. The board gets praise for solid build quality, and modding with lube and tape can noticeably improve sound and typing feel. The aloe switch option is described as especially light and better sounding than cowberry, while the stock PBT keycaps are not shine through. Caveats include the older V2 generation, a cramped layout that can cause more typos, and reports of used or broken units arriving as new.
Portable typists who want a low-profile board for work and home, because it can stay reliable for years with no issues.
It is a generation behind the Air75 V3, which adds more functionality. The V2 is still described as a solid portable board, but the newer model is the more feature-rich option.
Leaving it plugged in while using wireless mode all the time may risk battery swell. There are also reports of some units arriving used or broken even though they were sold as new.
Yes. The low-profile 75% layout can feel too close together for some users, leading to more typos, and people who prefer a full layout may not end up using it as intended.
Solid portable keyboard. It's a generation older now, the v3 offers more functionality but may not be as reliable. Watch for battery swell if you leave it plugged in on wireless mode all the time.
I have a 96 v2. Have had it several years now and use it for work + home, love it. Haven't had a single issue with it. Only downside is the stock PBT keycaps aren't shine through. But there are alternatives (Womier, XVX to name a few) on Amazon for ~15$
