Everyone must be familiar with the Dareu A98 keyboard—as the first mass-produced mechanical keyboard with a Gasket structure, it can be said that the Dareu A98 directly raises consumers’ awareness of the feel of domestic mechanical keyboards to a new level. , has been a very popular item since its launch. Of course, compared to the full range of feel performance, the A98 also has some deficiencies in appearance, such as the color matching is too bold, the keycaps are not good enough, etc., so the market is constantly clamoring for the new color matching of the A98, and the official also promises More new color schemes will be launched on the A98V2 at the end of the year.

What's interesting is that this summer Daryou launched a set of "Underglaze Green Theme Gift Box" because of a whim, which includes this "Underglaze Green" A98 three-mode mechanical keyboard, and the keyboard still retains the A98 The basic layout and Gasket structure are still at the top level among mass-produced brands. The keyboard adopts a pure white body, with a set of "underglaze blue" themed keycaps - white is very versatile, even if you don't like this set of "underglaze blue" keycaps, you can choose more beautiful keys Caps can be matched and combined by themselves.

In addition, the overall effect of the "Underglaze Blue" keyboard and earphone mouse is also unique. Friends who like the national style table can boldly try [Dongwu].

CL98 V3.0 is the third version of CL98 from Click Lab. In fact, CL90 was popular for a while at the beginning of the year. However, due to the high tonality of the early products, many of the later paintings failed to be realized. ridiculed by players.

Coming to the latest V3 version, the overall product idea of ​​CL98 has converged a lot, and the works have become more mature—the receiver storage slot at the bottom and some details of the process have gradually become what a regular mass-produced brand should be. At the same time, CL98 is still The biggest advantage of the current customized keyboard products is maintained: the high appearance of the excellent industrial ID design-in my eyes, compared with most mass-produced 98 keyboards, CL98 is indeed better-looking.

In terms of feeling of use, CL98 V3.0 is still more inclined to the style of customized products. For example, the design without feet does not affect the stability of the aluminum keyboard, but on the plastic keyboard with a larger deformation space, it is easy to cause the keyboard to shake and become unstable during use. In terms of the switch body, CL98 V3.0 is equipped with its own customized switch body manufactured by KTT this time. The overall quality of use is not bad, and there is also a more expensive TTC gold powder switch version for players to choose from.

Finally, my positioning of CL98 is still a "quasi-customized product". The overall completion of CL98V3.0 still has a lot of room for improvement. For players who find it troublesome to customize the keyboard, you can definitely try the CL98.

Key words: Alice arrangement, aluminum lump, QMK

Recently, the very popular "Alice" arrangement, as a mechanical keyboard brand that started from crowdfunding in overseas communities, Keychron has always paid more attention to the needs of players, so Keychron's Q series products basically cover all the current mainstream arrangement layouts, which naturally Including the "Alice" arrangement that players have been shouting for - the distribution of buttons at the separation angle of the left and right hands follows an ergonomic design, which can guide users to develop more "correct" and "healthy" habits when entering text. At the same time, it will be very painful to adapt to this kind of product with mandatory education user attributes, and it is also very picky about the usage scenarios-so I personally do not recommend that you blindly follow the trend.

※Similar product ideas are not unique to keyboards—Mionix in the field of gaming mice and Newton in the field of running shoes were once firm fans of "forced ergonomics". In fact, such products will never become mainstream.

Returning to the keyboard itself, it is still the rough metal style of Keychron as always-the CNC engraved metal body has a high-end feel; the OSA height ball cap and the right multimedia knob enhance the details of the keyboard; the Gasket structure ensures the excellent feel of the keyboard; STM32 The chip supports QMK programming and VIA settings to make the keyboard both soft and hard. All this is the basic operation of Keychron.

For Keychron, Q8 is actually just a piece of the puzzle of the complete product line layout, and for players who like Alice, Q8 is a good entry-level customized product; but for most players, I suggest that you still need to consider Alice with a keyboard The problem of the threshold of getting started should not be followed blindly.

Price: from 299 yuan

HELLO GANSS has recently updated several of its HS series keyboards. The updated new batch of products has added mainstream configurations such as under-shaft pads, sound-absorbing sandwiches, and bottom cotton on the basis of the original version, which has improved the previous HS series products. Cavity sounds that are criticized more. At the same time, in addition to the AA battery version, a built-in lithium battery version has also been added, and a new 75% layout has been added.

To my surprise, the overall performance of the HS87T after the upgrade is quite brilliant. Although the popular Gasket structure is not used, the solid feel performance is still commendable. The brand-new HS75T has made a bold attempt - not only is the knob design common in 75% of the keyboards currently installed on the upper right, but also a joystick is placed on the right side, which can be used for everyone! What else do you need at this price?

Finally, after the product update of HELLO GANSS, the word "cost-effective" still cannot be avoided. At present, the independent axis version of HS75T and HS87T both start at 299 yuan, and the Jiadalong wallaby axis and TTC gold powder axis are only 399 yuan. Really, too curly!

From Luofei's earliest "steampunk" route to OEM Beijing and then to the instant success of the small dot keyboard, the biggest impression of the Luofei brand on the so-called players in the circle should be "beautiful waste", but all the time, Luofei It should not be defined as a "peripheral brand" for keyboards. In fact, Luofei is more like a concept brand led by designers. Whether it is keyboards or its subsequent beauty and outdoor products, they are only carrying its design concept. a medium.

Continue to talk about Luofei 1% Bluetooth dual-mode mechanical keyboard. If you start from the feel, Luofei 1% can only be regarded as "ordinary", but it is definitely not a particularly bad type. It can only be said that compared with its exquisite appearance and Priced at 1,000 yuan, the flat feel performance is indeed disappointing and regrettable. The highlight is still the appearance - this keyboard still inherits Luo Fei's strong designer style, and the overall degree of completion in terms of craftsmanship is also very high. In terms of design and completion, it is by no means something that can be touched by some simple and transparent cat and dog brands. porcelain.

What is certain is that in the future, Luo Fei's set of gameplay should be the direction that major traditional brands will continue to learn and copy. Logitech, Razer, ASUS and even Dareu have begun to deploy female-oriented products. Excellent brands come up with concepts, leading manufacturers popularize concepts, and rubbish brands mindlessly copy products.
