Gentle keys, youthful warmth - Dujia Hi KEYS wireless dual-mode mechanical keyboard experience

I have experienced many Durga keyboards. However, this time Dujia adjusted the new brand strategy, starting with this HI KEYS wireless dual-mode mechanical keyboard, and launched a more diversified Hi series product. So you may wish to join me to appreciate this younger and warmer new Dujia product.

Only from the outer packaging, we can already see the changes in Durga. Hi KEYS with more lively fonts, smiling faces made up of keyboard shapes and various cartoon gestures, all of which declare to the world that I am very young~

There are not many accessories in the whole box, only a user guide and a Type-C to Type-A cable.

Of course, as a wireless dual-mode keyboard, the receiver is indispensable. The receiver of the Hi KEYS keyboard is located in the storage compartment on the back, which is more portable and not easy to lose. Interestingly, the storage compartment cover adopts a magnetic suction method, which can be removed with a light push. Bluetooth wireless mode (5.0) supports two sets of Bluetooth device storage connections and quick switching of shortcut keys. 2.4G wireless mode supports a set of Bluetooth devices to store connections and switch quickly with shortcut keys.

Both the connection mode selection and the switch dial are made of indium-plated material this time, which adds a lot of refinement to the entire keyboard. The practice of switching the connection mode through the knob also adds a lot of playability.

The appearance design has changed greatly from the previous Dujia style. Although it is still a minimalist shape, it is obviously younger in terms of color matching and keycap details.

The Hi KEYS keyboard adopts a simple layout of 84 keys, except for the number keypad, most of the functions are retained. But I still hope that in the near future, Durga will launch a 104-key arrangement based on this keyboard, so that we have more choices.

The difference this time is that the shape of the keycaps has changed a lot, the corners of the keycaps have become rounded, and the keycaps in the shape of toast bread and the active paint look like they will produce a kind of The wish to tap. It is precisely because of the change in the shape of the keycap that the dirt-resistant and wear-resistant ABS material is used in the material.

ESC, space bar, and enter key are painted in yellow, and black texture is added, which forms a strong contrast with the dark and light colors of other keycaps, which is very beautiful.

Probably out of the consideration of the overall display effect, the keycaps use a shading design, which is also a common practice of many high-end brands.

The keyboard specifications are 322mm long, 138mm wide, and 33.7mm high. Portability is not bad, I have no problem putting it in my usual backpack.

On Hi KEYS, the DURGOD logo is placed on the border at the lower left corner of the keyboard.

And the EST.2016 in the lower right corner means that the Dujia brand was established in 2016. Time flies like a fleeting moment, and it has been 7 years since then. In the past 7 years, we have witnessed the upgrade of a series of keyboard models, and also witnessed the process of a brand becoming stronger.

The large keys are designed with satellite shafts to ensure consistent feel, which is a practice adopted by almost all models of Duga keyboards.

From the gap of the satellite shaft, we can see the white steel plate with the DUGA LOGO. The built-in steel plate not only brings better stability to the keyboard, but also brings better feedback to each tap.

In terms of shafts, Duga Hi Keys provides two options of tea shafts and silent red shafts. The shafts are Kaihua Turbo series shafts, which is a very good representative series of shafts at present. Personally, I chose the brown shaft because I like the sense of rhythm when I hit it. It has a trigger stroke of 2.0±0.4mm, a trigger force of 40±10gf, and an ultra-long service life of up to 80 million times.

The back of the keyboard is relatively flat, with a large DURGOD lettering. This LOGO is designed with a high brightness. The new keyboard is covered with a protective film, which will be more beautiful after being removed. However, if you remove it, you will lose the protection. To remove it or not to remove it is a question.

Durga has ergonomically designed the key curve of Hi Keys, and with the independent foot support, it is easy for us to obtain a more comfortable feeling of use.

The backlight of Duga Hi Keys is a white ambient light, which supports brightness adjustment, and has 8 ambient light modes to choose from: constant light mode, ripple mode, rotation mode, breathing mode, reflection mode, response mode, laser mode and wave mode. Occasionally change a mode, change a new experience, and keep the feeling of freshness all the time is quite good.

The tea shaft with a clear sense of paragraph has clear tactile feedback, and it has a great sense of rhythm when it is tapped, and it feels silky and addictive.

As a wireless and backlit mechanical keyboard, battery life is also an important concern for us. Durga Hi Keys has a built-in rechargeable lithium battery, which has a battery life of up to 70-90 days when the backlight is turned on, and 360 days when the backlight is turned off and Bluetooth is used. Although I can accept a relatively small battery life for the backlight, but everyone is more willing to be lazy, the long battery life even makes me forget the problem of power consumption.

Having said so much, the point is that I am very happy to see that while consolidating its position in the mechanical keyboard industry, Dujia is determined to forge ahead, constantly changing to improve itself and develop more diversified products. Looking forward to it, more Hi Keys series products will be launched in the future, this experience is here first, see you next time~
