Nano Switch 3.0: A Revolutionary Leap in Low-Profile Keyboard Technology
For years, the keyboard industry has been divided between high-profile and low-profile switches, each offering unique advantages. However, with the launch of the nano switch 3.0, NuPhy has successfully bridged the gap, creating a revolutionary low-profile switch that sets a new standard for typing experiences. Here’s how nano switch 3.0 redefines the future of low-profile keyboards, with groundbreaking innovations across five key areas.
Unified Pin Design: Pioneering Standardization
For the first time, nano switch 3.0 adopts the same pin layout as high-profile switches, allowing both low-profile and high-profile switches to share the same PCB board. This is a groundbreaking innovation, as high-profile switches have long been standardized in the market.
NuPhy’s innovation ensures seamless compatibility, flexibility, and expanded customization options for keyboard enthusiasts, regardless of their preference for high-profile or low-profile switches.
Extended Travel Distance: The Feel of High-Profile in a Low-Profile Design
Nano Switch 3.0 achieves a total travel distance of 3.5mm, a breakthrough in the world of low-profile switches. This milestone brings the typing feel closer to that of high-profile switches while maintaining the ultra-thin design of low-profile keyboards.
For the first time, low-profile switches offer a travel distance comparable to high-profile ones, giving users the best of both worlds: the sleek aesthetics of a low-profile keyboard and the satisfying depth of high-profile keystrokes.
Full POM Construction: Smoother, More Durable, Quieter
The Brown, Red, and Silver nano switches 3.0 features full POM (Polyoxymethylene) construction for the stem, top housing, and bottom housing. This high-performance engineering plastic elevates the performance of low-profile keyboards in several ways:
- Self-Lubricating: POM’s molecular structure provides natural self-lubrication, effectively reducing friction and ensuring buttery-smooth keystrokes.
- Corrosion Resistance: POM is highly resistant to environmental corrosion and oxidation, significantly extending the switch’s lifespan.
- Noise Reduction: POM’s low friction properties drastically reduce keystroke noise, enabling a quieter typing experience. With its full POM construction, the nano switch 3.0 surpasses traditional low-profile switches in terms of smoothness, durability, and quiet performance.
The Silent Revolution: Quieter Typing with Nano Switch 3.0
Compared to previous low-profile switches, nano switch 3.0 delivers a significant upgrade in noise reduction. This is achieved not only through the full POM construction of its standard switches but also through the introduction of a new silent variant: Blush Switch.
Switches with Full POM Construction: The Brown, Red, and Silver variants of nano switch 3.0 are built entirely with POM (stem, top housing, and bottom housing). Leveraging POM's low friction coefficient, self-lubricating properties, and corrosion resistance, these switches significantly reduce keystroke noise while enhancing smoothness and durability.
Blush Switch: A Silent Masterpiece
The Blush Switch stands out as the silent variant of nano switch 3.0, featuring a unique combination of materials and a groundbreaking silent structure:
-
Material Composition:
- POM (Stem): Ensures smooth and quiet keystrokes while reducing internal friction noise.
- PC (Top Housing): High transparency and strength improve key stability and minimize external noise transmission.
- PA66 (Bottom Housing): High toughness and impact resistance provide structural support while further reducing low-frequency impact noise.
-
Innovative Silent Structure:
- The Blush Switch introduces built-in silent silicone embedded in the stem, which reduces the impact noise during keypress and release. This design minimizes collisions between the stem and the top and bottom housings, achieving true silence.
- Enhanced Noise Reduction: The addition of silent silicone achieves unprecedented noise control, making it ideal for offices, shared workspaces, and other quiet environments. ○
- Light and Bouncy Feedback: The optimized structure eliminates the "mushy" feel common in traditional silent switches, offering a lighter, more dynamic, and springy typing experience.
With its overall enhancements, nano switch 3.0 is one of the quietest low-profile switches on the market. The blush nano switch takes it a step further, setting a new benchmark as the first truly silent low-profile switch. Whether you’re a gamer, an office worker, or someone who values peace and quiet, nano switch 3.0 delivers an unprecedented silent typing experience.
Reduced Stem Wobble: A More Stable Typing Experience
Nano Switch 3.0 significantly reduces internal stem wobble, providing a more stable and precise typing experience compared to most low-profile switches:
- Improved Typing Accuracy: Less wobble means more precise keypresses.
- Enhanced Comfort: A stable switch reduces fatigue during long typing sessions.
- Increased Durability: Reduced internal movement ensures the switch maintains its premium feel over time.
This improvement makes nano switch 3.0 a standout choice for enthusiasts and professionals alike, offering an unparalleled combination of stability and precision.
Why Nano Switch 3.0 is a Game-Changer
Nano Switch 3.0 is not just an upgrade—it’s a revolutionary leap in low-profile keyboard technology. With innovations like unified pin design, extended travel distance, full POM construction, and advanced silent technology, nano switch 3.0 sets a new standard for low-profile switches.
Whether you’re a gamer, writer, or professional, the Kick75 featuring nano switch 3.0 delivers a typing experience like no other, seamlessly blending the best of high-profile and low-profile keyboards into one sleek design.
