My partner loves her GMK67 with outemu panda switches I built for her a while ago. Now that she has to go in the office she constantly complains how shitty the keyboards are.

What would you recommend for a low profile portable keyboard to give a similar experience the GMK67/Panda that is safe to throw in a backpack, but also a bit quieter for an office setting?

I was looking at the Nuphy Air60 since it has a case option, but I don’t know what switch would be good, maybe Wisteria or Moss?

Also looked at the Keychron, but from the switch descriptions only the Mint and Banana sounded close to a switch I would want, but nothing is currently in stock in a 60% layout.

Am I looking in the right direction, or are there other recommendations?

    I have a used K7 I’m selling. It’s a great little keyboard, wireless, with mint optical switches and a travel case. I bought it for travel, but I haven’t ended up traveling as much as I expected and have barely used it.

    Lmk if you’re interested.

    I have the Air75 from Nuphy and it is my current office board. It’s a very nice keyboard. I guess the new model uses QMK now, which is even nicer, so easy recommendation from me. I haven’t used their newer switches, but I have the tactiles from the old model and they feel quite nice.

    I haven’t fact checked this at all but apparently lowprokb.ca is working with Kailh on some choc v1 compatible silent switches which could potentially be used in those boards. Not sure when they’ll be available though
