5 types of shafts, 4 types of bodies, 22 types of keycaps, Luofei Xiaoqiao allows you to experience the fun of DIY

In the past few years, mechanical keyboards seem to have become the standard equipment for many people’s computers, and mechanical keyboards from various manufacturers have sprung up like mushrooms after rain. However, I found that the only one that can play mechanical keyboards well is Lofree. Fiji.

Why do I say that Luo Fei is the only one who plays well? In fact, if you look at other mechanical keyboards, you will know that they don’t seem to have much choice except for giving you a variety of different mechanical switches. Then take a look at the Lofree in my hand. In addition to choosing five different shafts according to your own habits, you can also choose different colors of the body and keycaps of different colors. I probably counted it, and it provides a total of 22 styles. There should not be many manufacturers who can hand over all the hardware options on the mechanical keyboard to users, right?

I personally chose the cement gray body + yellow switch + Pharaoh's gold travel keycap. I thought the keyboard I received would be a finished keyboard that had been installed by the manufacturer. I didn't find out until I received the keyboard that the body switch The body and keycaps are packaged separately and need to be assembled by themselves before use.

This is a family portrait. In addition to the body, keycaps and switches, it also comes with a data cable, a shaft puller, three AAA batteries, and an instruction manual.

When I saw these shafts and keycaps, I already knew that this should be the fun of DIY in the legend. A mechanical keyboard, you can learn more about its various parts, and then make different adjustments according to your preferences. Choose, and finally assemble it into the best keyboard you have in mind.

Lofree provides a total of five shafts, including TTC Gold Powder, Jiadalong G Yellow, Jiadalong CJ Wall, Kaihua Box White and Kaihua Jellyfish.

The mechanical keyboard I used before was the green switch, the trigger force of typing is a bit heavy, and the sound is also a bit loud, so this time I want to try the yellow switch with less trigger pressure and quieter sound.

There is no difficulty in the installation of the shaft, as long as the direction is correct, and then press it straight up and down. After the installation is completed, I found that there are two more shafts, which may be used for spare parts when the shaft is broken. .

Then you can install the keycaps. Lofree has two versions of 68 keys and 100 keys. The 100 keys are more practical for daily typing, while the 68 keys are more portable. The mechanical keyboard of the green axis is gone, so this 68-key Lofree will be more suitable for me to carry with me.

During the installation, it was found that the four keys of Space, Shift, Enter, and Back all adopted the satellite axis design.

I feel that Xiaoqiao’s PBT keycaps are all designed in a retro style, and they have all undergone frosted surface treatment. No matter what color they are, they look good in texture.

This is what Lofree looks like after it is assembled. What do you think of the appearance of this Pharaoh’s gold travel keycap? In addition to marking the functions of the keyboard, these keycaps are also printed with many patterns on ancient Egyptian murals, including pyramids, pharaoh's scepter, golden compass, guardian beasts, scarabs, and other mysterious totems. Of course, if you also like other styles of keycaps, you can also start separately.

Why is Lofree Luofei Xiaoqiao called "Little Qiao"? In fact, we can understand it directly by looking at the angle of the side of the keyboard. The five rows of keycaps are slightly tilted 9° along with the entire body base. And this is ergonomically designed, and typing will be easier.

There is a type-C interface designed at the back of the keyboard, which is mainly used for wired connection.

Then near the type-C interface, you can also see a black mode selection knob. You can switch between wired, Bluetooth and 2.4G connection modes by turning it, and it is compatible with Windows, Mac, Android, IOS, etc. operating system.

Lofree is powered by three AAA batteries. According to Lofree’s data, the battery life in normal use is about 3 to 4 weeks. If you don’t want to replace new batteries every month, you can actually replace them with charging battery usage. There is also a small detail. When you are not using the 2.4G wireless connection, you can also store the wireless receiver next to the battery compartment, so you don’t have to worry about losing it.

Let’s talk about the feel. I have used it for about a week so far. Compared with the green switches I used before, I can clearly feel the huge difference between the two. This Lofree with yellow switches has a pressing force. It is very light, and you can feel the smoothness of butter every time you press it, and there is no rattling noise like typing before. If you often work at night, you don't have to worry about affecting your family.

Through these few days of use, I think the main highlight of Lofree is that you can customize it according to your own preferences. Lofree provides different fuselages, different shafts, and different Style keycaps, when you receive the keyboard, you can feel the fun of assembling the keyboard yourself. And Lofree itself is a good-looking and easy-to-use mechanical keyboard. The yellow axis is smooth for typing, supports three different connection modes, and is compatible with multiple systems. It can be used on computers, mobile phones, tablets, and even TVs.

Therefore, no matter you are a beauty lover, you like DIY itself, or you are a pragmatist, Lofree can basically meet everyone’s needs for mechanical keyboards. This kind of option is directly handed over to users. way, I think other manufacturers can also learn from it, what do you think? Well, that's all for Xiaoqiao's evaluation, see you next time.
