Good things on the desktop Part 29: Simplify the complexity, choose the keyboard at the price of 300 yuan, I bought the Heijue AK873 and I don’t regret it

Whether it is efficient office or fun games, in addition to the necessary computer equipment, handy peripherals are also essential. The traditional membrane keyboard can no longer meet the needs of popular use. If you want to use it Good, efficiency is improved, a good mechanical keyboard is especially necessary, so this time I abandoned the 104-key long keyboard I have been using in the past, and replaced it with this smaller 87-key Heijue AK873 Bluetooth tri-mode Hot-swappable mechanical keyboard.

When choosing a mechanical keyboard, there are many types on the market. It is good to use it comfortably if you are used to it. There is no need to pursue products that are too tall and fancy. Many products are not necessarily easy to use just because they look good. And the choice of Heijue this time is to focus on his game and work experience. After all, this is a product cooperated with the League of Legends professional youth training base, and it is still trustworthy from the perspective of game experience.

The appearance and color matching of this Heijue AK873 bluetooth three-mode mechanical keyboard are pretty good-looking, no matter the extreme day gray I bought, or the two versions of sky white and dawn white, the color matching is very exquisite and trendy. Just mine, gray, white, and green. It is not monotonous and looks more youthful, and it is more coordinated with the desktop. It looks more comfortable than the solid color one, and it is less gaudy than the patterned one.

In my opinion, the 87-key arrangement is the most comfortable design to use at present. It reduces the area of ​​the numeric keypad and makes the full-key keyboard appear shorter. It is also my favorite design, and it does not take up too much space on the desktop. Space, more compact than 104 keys, no shortage of function keys than 62 keys, avoiding the trouble of using many combination keys, it is a very recommended keyboard arrangement.

The special function keys are kept, and the arrangement is basically the same as that of the 104 keys. This also makes us more accustomed to the 104 keys that we have been using all the time. Blind operation is more suitable for finding a suitable position for use.

The keycaps of Heijue AK873 are processed by PBT single-sided thermal sublimation process. The surface of each keycap is also frosted, and the corners are rounded. The position between the keys is just right and there will be no interference. It will not cause false touches; the overall keyboard also achieves full-key no-hit, which is very comfortable when using fast tapping, and there will be no delay in key conflicts and action delays when playing games.

With the built-in three-layer noise reduction design of the keyboard, the cavity sound when pressing is reduced, the keys are crisp and comfortable, and there is basically no accidental operation.

Heijue AK873 also considerately comes with 6 MAC system supplementary keycaps, whether you use it on Windows system equipment or on MAC Apple system, it can be seamlessly adapted, and there is no extra adaptation time.

After talking about the keycaps, let’s talk about the shaft body.

For mechanical keyboards, the most important absolute factor in the tapping feel is the choice of the switch body. This time, I chose the second-generation Shanlan switch body, which has a very red switch feel. The trigger pressure of the switch body is 45. ±10g, 2mm trigger stroke, 4mm total stroke, it feels very comfortable to go straight up and down, and there is not too much noise when you tap it. Whether it is used in the office or at home at night, you don’t have to worry about disturbing others. .

In addition, this Heijue AK873 keyboard also adopts a full-key hot-swappable design, and each key can be replaced.

If you get tired of the feel of the original switch, if you want to play with other switches, you can directly buy the switch from the market and replace it with this keyboard, which directly saves the cost of changing a keyboard. . Of course, if you want to experience 87 kinds of feel on a keyboard at the same time, it is no problem to directly replace the 87 different shafts. Don’t worry about the situation that the bought shaft cannot be used, because this AK873 is a shaft seat. Hot-swappable, compatible with three-legged and five-legged shafts, in other words, 99% of the existing shafts on the market are compatible.

After talking about the shaft body, of course we have to talk about the connection mode of this keyboard.

This time it is still full, it supports Bluetooth wireless three-mode connection, C-port cable direct connection, for gamers who require stable output, wired use will be better, and wireless 2.4G and Bluetooth mode are my favorites. Wireless bluetooth can not only make the desktop more tidy, but also connect multiple devices at the same time. You can switch between different devices at any time through shortcut keys. When I use a laptop and a desktop at the same time, this keyboard can help me Realize the desire to switch with one key and operate different devices at the same time.

A mechanical keyboard has no soul without RGB lights!

For game lovers, the atmosphere and immersion brought by the lighting are very useful. In addition to the good user experience, the Heyjue AK873 has also added an RGB backlight design with about 16.8 million color lighting effects. You can also set more lighting effects through the driver, and the atmosphere is full.

In terms of lighting effects, this keyboard is preset with 18 kinds of colorful lighting effects, marquee, colorful, solid color, full keyboard/single area can be set, the brightness can be adjusted and the speed of the lighting effect can be set. It always has the urge to play.

write at the end

In recent years, my commuter keyboard can be said to have always belonged to the Heijue family, as can be seen from the photos I take of the desktop every day. I like Heijue because I like its simple design. There is no gorgeous appearance, but every detail is in line with the requirements of good feel. This time, Heijue AK873 is positioned as a three-mode mechanical keyboard with a price of about 300. In terms of appearance, feel experience and cost performance It's very good, if you are interested, you might as well try it.
