Best for

What will you mostly use it for?

The Node 100 has a modest edge for gaming based on its listed N-Key Rollover and SOCD support. The LUMA100 leads for office work, programming, modding, and content creation mainly through its aluminum case and VIA support. For travel, the LUMA100 is lighter, although both offer wireless connections and the same stated battery capacity. Layout needs may override these category picks, particularly if you need ISO.

For gaming

Pick the Nuphy Node 100

  • The Node 100 lists N-Key Rollover, a feature not listed for the LUMA100.
  • The Node 100 vendor description also specifies SOCD support for gaming.
