NuPhy Unveils Air V3 Series With Three New Low-Profile Keyboard Layouts

NuPhy expanded its Air V3 series to a full three-layout lineup with the Air65 V3, Air75 V3, and Air100 V3, completing a generation that cements the Air line's position as the go-to low-profile mechanical keyboard family for the broader enthusiast and professional market.

Originally launched in 2021, the NuPhy Air Series redefined what a low-profile mechanical keyboard could offer, and in 2023, the second generation brought improvements in stability and all-around better performance. The V3 generation takes things further. Three low-profile keyboards are available in 65%, 75%, and 100% layouts, built around a semi-aluminum construction and designed for use across multiple devices.

The Air V3 series went on sale from March 15, 2026, starting at $139 for the Air65 V3. Switch options across the lineup include Gateron 3rd-Gen Blush Nano, Super Red Nano, and Super Brown Nano. All three models share a gasket structure and a nominal front height of 13.2mm. Adjustable rear legs offer 4°, 8°, and 10° tilt options, and connectivity covers Bluetooth, 2.4GHz RF, and USB-C, with colorways in Black and Silver.

Battery capacity varies by form factor: the Air75 V3 and Air100 V3 both carry 4,000mAh cells, while the Air65 V3 runs on a 2,500mAh pack. On the Air75 V3, NuPhy claims up to 1,200 hours of battery life without backlighting, dropping to 60 to 100 hours when RGB is active.

Each model in the series carries the customizable knob feature that debuted with the Air75 V3. The three keyboards incorporate a custom knob that lets users remove the Delete key and replace it with a rotary knob control that can be programmed with a range of functions. The layout roles are clearly delineated: the Air65 V3 targets remote workers and travelers, the Air75 V3 serves office users who want a compact board with a full function row, and the Air100 V3 adds a full numeric keypad for accountants, engineers, and anyone who lives in spreadsheets.

A 220-grit anodized finish on the CNC-machined case gives the series a refined OEM feel, and keycaps are two-color injection-molded PBT using NuPhy's proprietary nSA profile, optimized for low-profile switches. Connectivity on all three models supports 2.4GHz wireless, Bluetooth 5.1, and USB Type-C wired modes.

With all three layouts now shipping, the Air V3 generation gives the low-profile mechanical keyboard space its most complete family of gasket-mounted, hot-swap boards yet, and NuPhy its strongest argument that slim doesn't mean compromised.
