Hi, let’s make friends—Double Twelve starts with Dujia Hi Keys dual-mode mechanical keyboard

For a long time, I thought that the keyboard is enough, and a full-size membrane keyboard is my daily main keyboard. Later, being brought by a friend can be regarded as falling into the trap of mechanical keyboards. In the past few years, I have bought a few different keyboards with different configurations intermittently to experience it.

It's almost the end of the year. Looking at the 61 keyboard in my hand, I always feel that I should change to a new shape to experience it.

The brand of Dujia has been shared by many big guys before it is worth buying. It is also a relatively good mechanical keyboard manufacturer that has developed as a domestic brand in the past few years, especially the Dujia FUSION launched in 2020 with cherry silver. The product of the shaft, with its retro shape and three-mode design, is eye-catching.

With the fighting of gods and the continuous involution of major mechanical keyboard manufacturers in recent years, Dujia also adjusted his brand strategy this year. A new brand series that is closer to the young market has been launched, which is the Hi Keys product I bought this time.

The new product launched in December has caught up with the double 12 e-commerce promotion, and the direct price has been discounted to 400 yuan. I don’t understand this wave of operations. Can it be sold at the original price in the future?

Hi Keys is the first product of the "Hi" series launched by Dujia. The outer packaging is based on black, with more youthful elements, plus smiley face emoticons and cartoon gestures.

There are two colors to choose from. I personally prefer this dark blue color. On the basis of the overall dark blue, the ESC, carriage return, and space bar also use orange color jumps to make the whole color scheme look less so. monotonous. This one also has an overall silver-white color scheme to choose from, which catches everyone's eyes.

The 84-key layout basically retains the complete functional area. Compared with the standard keyboard layout, the number area is subtracted to make the overall keyboard more compact.

As a product that claims to focus on rejuvenation, this keyboard has been designed with a lot of careful thought. Special treatment has been done from the keyboard to the keycaps. The edges are still formed with right angles, but they are all used in the transition Curve elements to transition. It allows you to find both square and round feelings on a keyboard. Especially the keycaps, the chunky ones are particularly joyful.

The entire keyboard only has the data cable as an accessory. This keyboard is the main wireless Bluetooth dual-mode connection method, so this data cable is only used to charge the keyboard. Cannot be used as wired mode. What I don't understand is that this keyboard is not equipped with a key puller. Although users who play mechanical keyboards do not lack this, others have it, but you don't. This is a bit unreasonable.

There are two options for the shaft body, mine is the Kaihua Turbo Brown shaft, which has a stronger sense of paragraph when tapped. If you need to use it in a quiet environment, the manufacturer also provides a quiet red shaft body for use. choose. But it is a pity that this keyboard does not support hot-swappable switches, and it is impossible to replace the switches you like later, which also limits its later upgrade steps, so as a consumer, you must consider the choice when placing an order. Which shaft.

In addition, this Kaihua Turbo series shaft body was just released on October 24, 2022. The shaft material adopts the high-smooth composite POM material newly developed by Kaihua, which has the characteristics of high smoothness and low friction coefficient.

The keycap material is ABS and the font uses UV technology.

Put a comparison chart with the keycap worth buying, there is still a difference in height.

A huge Durga brand LOGO at the bottom is made into a bright effect.

The receiver is placed at the bottom of the keyboard, and the magnetic cover can be easily opened with just one push, and it is very convenient to take it out with one push and one push. One-piece support feet, embedded with rubber non-slip material, can ensure more stable support during use.

The more compact key layout saves the space occupied by the keyboard, and the addition of wireless mode is conducive to the flexible placement of the keyboard. Whether it is typing or using it at work, it allows me to arrange it at a more comfortable angle. desktop. I used a 61-key keyboard before, although it looks more compact, but I need to use a lot of F1-F12 keys in my work, which is one of the main reasons why I replaced the Durga.

The keyboard has its own LED white light effect, and 8 modes can be switched. Although the keycaps are opaque, the design of the leaky shaft is adopted. Overall, the effect at night is quite good. If you replace it with a set of light-transmitting keycaps, the effect will be even more different.

The switch of the keyboard lighting effect and the selection of the wireless link mode are all designed with indium-plated levers. The advantage is that they can be switched quickly. It can switch between three wireless devices via Bluetooth and 2.4G wireless. In addition to supporting Windows and MacOS computer systems, it can also be used with mobile phones and tablets for Android and ios devices.

According to the official statement: turn off the backlight, under the premise of regular daily use, the Bluetooth mode can achieve 360 ​​days of battery life, and the 2.4G mode can achieve 200 days of battery life. The power consumption is reduced, and the service life of the battery is comprehensively improved.

Different from the traditional conventional keycap height, this Durga keyboard design adopts a new ergonomic key position curve. Claimed to bring a more comfortable feel. I don't have any uncomfortable reactions, that is, I used 61 keys before, but now after switching to this 84 keys, the backspace key is still used to touch the upper right corner, and it will be fine after a few days of adaptation.

Generally speaking, the mechanical keyboards we see all use this conventional ergonomic design of the keycap height. And this time the keycap arrangement used in the Durga keyboard is like this. I'll post a picture for everyone to understand.

The independent arrow keys are retained, which is definitely a good point. I still use these keys quite frequently in daily use.

As the first product of Dujia's new Hi series, on the basis of solid technology and distinctive appearance design, it also provides wireless dual-mode connection driving, supports multi-system support, long-term battery life support, and no conflicts with all keys. These are in line with the current mainstream usage habits of mechanical keyboards. On the premise of not pursuing customization, the finished keyboards launched by the manufacturer are enough to use, because I heard that the Hi series can be a product line with a new mold, and I look forward to what kind of keyboards he will launch in the next step. Mouse and even other co-branded products.
