Let me start by saying I was a low-profile keyboard skeptic. The short travel and flat keycaps always felt like typing on a glorified laptop keyboard—until I met the Air75 V2. This thing is a masterclass in design and functionality.

The translucent bottom shell isn’t just a gimmick—it’s a conversation starter. I caught my coworker staring at my desk, mesmerized by the subtle glow of the internal PCB during a late-night coding session. The dual RGB light bars? Pure genius. Left side tells me my connection mode (Bluetooth to my iPad, 2.4G to my gaming rig), while the right side acts as a battery fuel gauge. No more guessing games.

Typing on Gateron Aloe switches feels like gliding fingers over silk-covered marbles. Coming from Cherry MX Browns, I didn’t expect such satisfying thock from low-profile switches. The included switch tester (shoutout to Nuphy for this thoughtful touch) convinced me to swap half my board to Wisteria switches for a quieter office experience—hot-swappable sockets made this a 5-minute job.

That 4000mAh battery is no joke. After two weeks of 8-hour workdays with RGB at 50%, I’m still at 30%. The magnetic feet are my secret weapon—angle it flat for couch typing, pop them on for ergonomic bliss at my standing desk. Pro tip: The wooden wrist rest (sold separately) completes the premium feel.

Is it perfect? The ABS spacebar can sound slightly hollow compared to the PBT keys, and I wish the USB-C port was centered. But when I’m effortlessly switching between my MacBook and Windows PC with FN+1/FN+2, watching the side LEDs glow amber as I toggle Mac mode… these are nitpicks. This keyboard made me a low-profile convert.
