Black Canyon X4, this mousse is very tempting!

Once you enter the keyboard, it is as deep as the sea. In the past, when the cherry shaft was the only one, it was nothing more than green, black tea and black, with a little variation. With the strong rise of domestic shafts, various shafts of various brands are like a vast starry sky, which is countless. It is almost impossible to try all kinds of axles, but some of the most famous and acclaimed axles are still worth trying.

Kaihua axis should be the No.1 domestic mechanical axis brand at present. It has PRO axis, Speed ​​axis, BOX axis, etc., among which BOX axis is the most popular. The BOX shaft is Kaihua's patented design. The structure is completely different from the traditional MX structure of the cherry shaft. The dynamic and static plates that conduct the signal are enclosed in a sealed cavity, which can realize waterproof and dustproof, and also has long life and stability. Good, impact resistance and other advantages.

Especially the green switch of Kaihua BOX adopts a completely different design from the cherry green switch in structure. It uses metal shrapnel and a special sound-generating structure to produce sound. It is crisp and transparent, and has a low failure rate and long life, so it has won a lot of praise from the beginning, and I have always wanted to experience it. This time I bought the latest X4 dual-mode wireless mechanical keyboard from the Black Canyon brand, dubbed "Kaihua's son" by players, with 99-key Kaihua BOX sky blue switches.

parameter. There are several new BOX switches. The sky blue switch on hand is a blue-like switch with a clear sense of paragraph. In addition, there are quicksand gold similar to the tea switch and rose red similar to the red switch.

family portrait.

The X4 99-key version of the wireless dual-mode mechanical keyboard Black Forest Mousse is white overall, but if you look closely, you will find that the keycap is a double-skin milk structure. The upper layer is white and the lower layer is black. It really is the same as Black Forest Mousse. This ingenious color scheme makes the black at the bottom of the keycap look like a shadow, not only keeps the keyboard's overall pure white first impression, but also gives the keycap an illusion of ultra-thin suspension.

The palm rest is magnetic, there is no redundant mechanical structure, it will be directly absorbed when it is close to it, and it is also very convenient to disassemble.

For mechanical keyboards of regular height, I think the palm rest is very necessary, which can greatly improve the comfort of use. Basically, the keyboards I use are equipped with palm rests. Although I personally like to use a solid wood palm rest, which is more textured and more stylish, the angle of the original Black Canyon palm rest fits the keyboard better. After installation, it looks seamless and looks better.

The keycap is double-skin milk structure, PBT material, durable, will not oil, two-color injection molding, the characters will not fade. A layer of white on top of black gives the impression that the keycaps are ultra-thin and suspended in mid-air. The only downside is that the keycaps are opaque.

I found that the characters of this set of keycaps are not closed characters, but the Del key is closed, which seems to be the only exception.

Compared with the common 83-key and 87-key layout, the 99-key has more number areas, which is especially suitable for people who like to use the number area to input numbers, as well as financial workers. Compared with 104 keys, 99 keys have shortened the length of the keyboard by optimizing the layout, only one or two keycap widths longer than 87 keys.

Kaihua BOX shaft, the castle-like square sheath is the most obvious feature. This sheath can effectively prevent dust and garbage from entering the interior of the shaft body, and it can also have a certain waterproof effect.

The large key adopts the standard satellite shaft structure, which is well optimized and there is no wire sound.

Black Canyon X4 only supports wireless 2.4G and wired dual mode, and does not support Bluetooth. There is a storage compartment at the bottom of the keyboard, where the USB wireless 2.4G receiver is placed. Magnetic storage, reliable and convenient. Two-stage folding foot pads provide more angle options.

Since the Black Canyon X4 does not support hot-swapping, there is no shaft puller included, only a wire key remover is included, and the workmanship is good.

The USB data cable is a braided cable with a magic zip tie.

When you get home, put on the cherished ZOMO cat claw keycap, so cute!

Putting it on the pure white electric lifting table, it is a perfect one! I have always wanted to buy the Audioengine A2+ white speaker, which is small and exquisite, exquisite and beautiful, with a white paint appearance, but it is too expensive. My wife disagrees, so I can only make do with ordinary speakers. Otherwise, the whole set of white desktops will definitely look better!

In terms of appearance, this Black Canyon X4 Black Forest Mousse can be said to be the best among white keyboards. It not only maintains the overall look and feel of all white, but also looks unique, and the black here is not at all obtrusive.

The feel of the keycap is also very good. The matte texture of PBT material provides a tough feel, and it is durable and does not oil.

The keyboard has a white backlight, and a variety of lighting effects are optional. It is a pity that such a beautiful black and white two-color keycap is not transparent, wasting the backlight. However, in fact, the wireless keyboard is limited by its capacity. For longer battery life, under normal circumstances, you will not turn on the backlight.

Kaihua's new BOX switch, the sky blue switch, is a kind of blue switch with a sense of paragraph, but the structure is different from the cherry blue switch. The Black Canyon i3 and i5 I have used before use the Kaihua Cangling fast and fast switch, which is also a green switch, which is similar to the sky blue. The sense of paragraph and sound are similar in structure, so the same paragraph is very crisp Sensation, the clicking sound of the crisp metal sheet, not the impact sound of the mechanical structure like the cherry green switch, so the sound is crisper than the cherry green switch, and the loudness is a little bit smaller, not so noisy.

However, compared with the Cangling Kuaikuai switch, the sky blue switch has a stronger spring and the paragraphs appear a little later, so the feel will be closer to the cherry blue switch, tougher and more mechanical, unlike Cangling Fast fast shaft so light and fast.

Because the stroke of the sky blue switch is relatively long and relatively tough, you can feel it when playing games. When you press the button at high speed, the long stroke affects the response speed, and there will be a feeling that the rebound is too late. So I feel that the switch without paragraphs is more suitable for playing games, and the green switch is more suitable for typing. When writing ideas are flowing like a spring and fingers are flying like flying, the dense clicking sound is really full of pleasure!

Overall, I am very satisfied with the appearance of the Black Canyon X4 Black Forest Mousse. The feel of the sky blue switch is also in line with expectations. It has a strong mechanical feel and is similar to the cherry blue switch, but it is smoother, crisper, and the sound is more crisp. Very cool. The magnetic palm rest is also a bonus item, which is more coordinated with the keyboard in appearance and feels good in the hand.

The sale price of this Black Canyon X4 keyboard is 309 yuan. It will be pre-sold from January 12th to 19:30 on January 19th, and the final payment will be paid between 20:00 on January 19th and 24:00 on January 22nd. Personally, I think the price/performance ratio is good, and I recommend it!
