The Nubi NK87 is a clean, minimalist, and reliably built 80% keyboard designed for users seeking a classic mechanical keyboard experience with modern enhancements.
It features G3MS Sapphire pre-lubed mechanical switches, double-shot ABS keycaps, and Poron sound dampening, offering a soft and creamy typing sound. The stabilizers are factory-tuned and lubricated, and it is supported by powerful online software that allows keyboard customization, whether on Windows or MacOS.
It is built around a durable plastic frame with matching double-shot ABS keycaps, offering a uniform aesthetic from top to bottom. The plate adds subtle contrasts while maintaining structural rigidity, and the keyboard sits on four rubber feet for a stable grip on your desk.
Inside, the case is reinforced with Poron sound dampening to eliminate hollow sound, while the plate features targeted foam under the spacebar for additional sound control and balance. The result is a smooth, quiet sound profile that stays consistent across all keys.
The NK87 uses G3MS Sapphire pre-lubed mechanical switches. These switches are machine-lubed to provide a consistent, clean, and stable typing feel. With hot-swap support (for both 5-Pin and 3-Pin switches) on all 87 keys, switches can be replaced instantly without soldering. The stabilizers are plate-mounted instead of PCB-mounted, allowing extra customization if you are an enthusiast. The switches are also lubricated to eliminate wobble and are tuned for a deep and consistent sound profile.
The Cherry-profile keycaps are made from double-shot ABS using Nubi’s own mould, featuring transparent legends designed to perfectly match the soft white lighting of the keyboard. Also, the included 1.8-meter braided cable matches the color of the body for a uniform setup.
G3MS Sapphire Switch Specifications: The Blackrock engineering team introduced the G3MS switches as their first switch design. This innovative design features a reduced contact area between the stem (the moving part) and the housing, resulting in a smaller friction area. As a result, these switches provide an ultra-smooth operation, eliminating spring ping and any distracting sounds typically found in other types of switches. Actuation force – 50g, Pre-travel – 2mm, Durability – 50 million keystrokes.
