Mechanical keyboards: you either love or hate them. I very much fall into the former category, and so it's been really exciting to see them surge in popularity in recent years and watch their design evolve. 

The Nuphy Air60 is one of the smallest and quietest mechanical keyboards I have used. And I've used a lot. And while that kind of goes against the key features one very much associates with such a device – bulk and noise – it works for me.
