Big difference! High-value comfort: hands-on experience of Lofree Xiaoqiao 100 cement gray bluetooth mechanical keyboard

Let me talk about my own needs first. For the choice of keyboard, it must first be a mechanical keyboard. After using the mechanical switch for so many years, I am used to it, especially the red switch is my first choice. Furthermore, it is 87-key, because my desktop space is very small, and the 104-key arrangement is too crowded....

I am so happy to get the Lofree 100 cement gray bluetooth mechanical keyboard this time. It took me a few days to write the experience. I feel that this is a keyboard worthy of my long-term use. Today I will make a simple introduction to you. share it.

When I first got the package, I felt that the keyboard was so heavy! The packaging design is very attractive. In fact, this is the first time I have come into contact with the brand Lofree, so I was a little apprehensive about their keyboard at first.

I don’t need to explain the details of the items in the box, but they can basically be understood. The main reason is that the “metal piece” is a very practical little item, so let’s keep it a secret~~~.

Let's take a look at the keyboard first, and then I will call it Xiaoqiao 100 for short. This keyboard has 100 keys, and many friends may wonder why this 100-key keyboard satisfies me so much since my needs are in 87 configurations? Just look at the arrangement of this keyboard and you will know why!

Do you think the button arrangement of Xiaoqiao 100 is a bit special? Each key is very compact, the general 104 size keyboard, the numeric keypad part is "partitioned", and most of the enter keys will be made very large. The arrangement of Xiaoqiao 100 seems to indent the entire numeric keypad to the left side of the main keyboard, resulting in a length of only 36.7mm, which feels very close to the length of the 87 keyboard, such as the Razer Black Widow Spider Light The length of the version (87 keys) is 36.1mm, and the length of the ikbc87 mechanical keyboard is 36.2mm. You can make a reference~~.

Viewed from the side, Xiaoqiao 100 has a 9° inclination, so you can easily see the characters on the keycaps when typing, and its chassis is completely curved. Although the inclination angle cannot be adjusted, it is suitable for most For humans, this angle is sufficient.

The keyboard shell is made of ABS material, but the overall weight reaches 1010g, and the stability on the desktop is very good.

The chassis looks relatively simple, the main highlight is the raised one, in addition to the function of supporting feet, there are power and wireless switches, and the battery is also installed in it.

The appearance of Xiaoqiao 100 is not only simple and capable, but also gives people a very lofty feeling. No matter the color matching, the keycap font, or the unique pattern design elements on the space bar, they all have a sense of design.

Since the keys of Xiaoqiao 100 are not floating, it is easier to hide dirt in the keyboard, and it takes more time to clean it.

The keycaps of Xiaoqiao 100 are also very distinctive. The spherical keycaps, which are more spherical than spherical, are highly recognizable, but it takes a little time to get used to this type of keycaps for the first time.

There are some small designs on the keyboard. It can be felt that the designer has spent a lot of thought, such as the LOFFEE logo on the side of the lower right corner of the keyboard, the graphic printing on the side, and the very lofty switch design, although it is not very practical. Meaning, but the appearance has indeed improved a lot.

I mentioned its switch just now, let's take a look! This is a scroll wheel switch, OFF/ON/Bluetooth/2.4GHz, all integrated on this switch. It should be noted that the Bluetooth/2.4GHz gear, after the scroll wheel is turned here, it needs to be paired and activated through a combination of buttons. The keyboard has its own memory, and the next time it is turned on, it will remember the previously set Bluetooth and wireless pairing.

The charging data interface of Xiaoqiao 100 is USB-C specification, which has good versatility. It is also a three-mode keyboard, which is available in wired, bluetooth and wireless 2.4GHz. In addition, it can memorize 3 devices in bluetooth mode, just press The corresponding key combination can switch back and forth between different devices.

Open the support feet of the keyboard. In addition to the battery compartment, there is also a wireless adapter that can be used to place it, so as to prevent careless users from losing it, and it is much more convenient for daily carrying.

The switch body of the keyboard uses Garteron Yellow Switch Pro, which is the first time I have experienced it. I mostly use red switches on a daily basis. I feel that the Garteron Yellow Switch Pro has many similar feelings to the red switch. The linear switch body is straight up and down, and the rebound speed is faster and quieter, so it is not difficult to get started.

I also have less contact with BPT keycaps, but when I saw the keycaps of Xiaoqiao 100, I found that its workmanship is quite reliable!

The characters are printed clearly, and they are all closed. The inner and edge nozzles are well processed, and the four small corners have been strengthened, and there are many ribs, which looks clean.

Xiaoqiao 100 is placed on the desktop, and I feel that my desk will become artistic at once. Unfortunately, the mouse seems to be a bit out of tune. I will find a white mouse to match it~!

Now we can announce the function of the metal piece mentioned at the beginning of the article~! Please see the picture below, hook it on the keyboard, it can be used to put pens, erasers, rulers or some decorative small objects.

I just mentioned that the Bluetooth mode of Xiaoqiao 100 can support switching between three devices at the same time. I deliberately tried it with Mi Pad 5 and a desktop computer. There are only two combination keys: FN+1/2/3, The number represents 3 devices, and the switching is very fast. It is very practical for small partners who need to switch between multiple devices every day.

In terms of feel, I mentioned some of them before, and it feels a bit close to the feel of the red switch, but Xiaoqiao 100 has the Garteron yellow switch Pro version, so I don’t know what the real red switch version feels like. ~, it may be that my fingers are less sensitive to these two types of switches. This article is printed using Garteron Yellow Switch Pro. Silky smoothness is the most important feeling. On the keys, the balance design is also very good, especially the space bar. I use Sogou Pinyin, and I often use it. When the thumb is triggered, you can either press it to the left or press it to the right. Its balance can be seen at a glance. figure it out.

In terms of games, I have used this keyboard to play a few games of LOL, Sniper2 and old man ring. Xiaoqiao 100 did not emphasize whether it is mainly used for office work or games, but I feel that it performs very well in games after using it. The sound when the buttons touch the bottom is a bit dull, which may be related to its internal "silicone interlayer pad" There is some relationship, the keycap will not be stiff when it touches the bottom, the sound is relatively soft, and at the same time there will be a muffled rattling sound, which is very comfortable, especially when it is used at night, it will not disturb the family.

Finally, let’s make a conclusion. Xiaoqiao 100’s appearance is undeniable, and the distinctive loft and simple style won my heart! It also feels good to use, beautiful and easy to use. I think it is enough for a keyboard to do these two things. Of course, some friends may have more demands, such as keyboard lights, driver software support, etc. I am sorry that Xiaoqiao 100 does not have all of them, but it can bring a pleasant experience in office/game occasions, 599 The pricing is also very conscientious. If you don't care about those bells and whistles and want to make your desk more lofty, this keyboard is worth a try.
