if you wanna keep the low profile nuphy air96 v2, you can get silent switches to put in. Its not hard at all to swap out switches and takes like 3 minutes. my keyboard is silent unless you slam on it.

If you want something that actually fits all your criteria without getting into customs, the NuPhy Air96 V2 is probably your best bet. It's one of the only proper 96% low-profile prebuilts, so it feels close to a laptop, has wireless + USB-C (left rear I think), and stays fairly quiet (especially wi

you should definitely go for Nuphy Air96 V2. (with red switches, cuz they're quieter) It's slim and low profile and suits the work environment

perhaps the NuPhy Air96 V2? It’s a 96% layout with tri-mode (wired + wireless), works with both Mac and Windows. It’s not the quietest stock, but you can easily swap in quieter switches. Price also drops during sales pretty often, and they sometimes have promo codes too.

i was in the same boat last year looking for a quiet full-size for late night gaming. the low travel requirement makes me think you'd like a low-profile board with linear switches - they're smoother and way quieter than clicky ones. i ended up with the Keychron K5 Pro and it's been solid, has per-ke

i was hunting for the same specs last month for my work-from-home setup. ended up going with the Keychron K10, it's a full-size wireless board that connects to three devices via Bluetooth and you switch between them with a flick. backlighting is solid too. if you want something with more of a thocky

It's also my favorite. I've tried so many low profiles including Nuphy Air96 v2 with both Wisteria and Moss switches, Nuphy Node 75 with Blush Nanos, LOFREE Flow 100 with Phantom switches, every Logitech scissor keyboard, Logitech MX Mechanical, Keychron K5 Max with Brown and Brown silents, Satechi
