Compact 96% Wireless Keyboard

The NuPhy Halo96 V2 is a 99-key mechanical keyboard with a 96% ANSI layout. It uses Mint linear switches rated at 37gf actuation force. Three connection modes are provided: Bluetooth 5.0, 2.4GHz wireless and USB-C wired. The gasket-mounted structure and hot-swappable PCB support both 3-pin and 5-pin MX-style switches.

Gamers and Multi-Device Users

The 1000Hz polling rate in wired and 2.4GHz modes suits competitive gaming. QMK and VIA firmware support gives advanced users full key-mapping and RGB control across Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS. Buyers who need a dedicated macro column or a numpad separated from the main cluster should consider other form factors.

Hot-Swappable MX-Style Sockets

The PCB accepts any 3-pin or 5-pin MX-compatible switch without soldering. This single specification decides whether the keyboard can be customised with the switch types you already own or plan to buy.

Questions about this item

How quiet and cool does the keyboard stay during all-day typing with the 37gf Mint switches?

The 37gf Mint switches are light linear switches rated at 37gf actuation force, producing a muted sound profile thanks to the gasket-mount structure and south-facing RGB LEDs that reduce ping.

What do I need to already own to use the hot-swappable sockets and QMK/VIA customisation?

You will need 3-pin or 5-pin MX-style switches and keycaps with standard ANSI 96% stems if you want to swap switches or change keycaps, plus a USB-C cable for wired firmware flashing.

Will the 2.4 GHz dongle and Bluetooth 5.0 work alongside my older Bluetooth laptop and USB-A desktop?

Yes, the keyboard pairs with up to four devices over Bluetooth 5.0 and includes a 2.4 GHz receiver for low-latency 1000 Hz polling on any host with a USB-A port, letting you switch between legacy and modern systems with FN combinations.
