The most significant shift is the move from the open-source QMK / VIA firmware to NuPhy’s proprietary NuPhyIO software. This change has led to a major improvement in battery life, jumping from a few hundred hours to an incredible 1,200 hours on a single charge, resulting in a massive quality-of-life upgrade for wireless users. However, the software change is just the beginning of the differences between the two models. We dive into all the physical modifications on the IO Series, including the new solid polycarbonate bottom case, the removal of enthusiast-loved features like the Ghost Bar spacebar and shine-through homing bars, and a reduction in available color options. While the IO Series offers a cleaner aesthetic and better battery life, it’s important to fully understand the trade-offs before making a purchase decision. 🎥 Related Videos: Halo65 V2 Review: https://youtu.be/-csVYn-2Tiw Halo75 V2 Review: https://youtu.be/TDAUbRPBgt0 👨‍💻 See all my links: https://bio.site/camerondoughertytech 📸 Follow on IG: https://www.instagram.com/camerondoughertytech/ ⏱️ Timecodes: 0:00 Introduction 1:30 Physical Changes 7:22 NuPhyIO vs QMK/VIA 11:50 In the Box Changes 12:37 Value and Pricing 16:18 Which one is better? ✅ Don't forget to like and subscribe for more reviews! @CameronDoughertyTech Note: The product links above are Affiliate links.
