Nuphy Air75 V2, Gamakay LK75, Drop CSTM80 and Mode Sonnet compact keyboards tested.

Another season has arrived, and with it a host of exciting new mechanical keyboards.

That makes the Air75 V2 my top recommendation in this round-up.

The customisation possibilities here aren’t limited to aesthetics either.

with the most expensive options for things like weights, accent pieces and plates.

They sent out a pre-assembled review keyboard that costs $516 (!

If you’re well into your keyboards, the Sonnet could be worth a look.
