How much do you know about mechanical keyboards Part 2: Whether it is a mechanical keyboard or not is not important, what matters is the light effect——IQUNIX OG80 Wormhole Mechanical Keyboard TTC Gold Powder Switch Usage Report

IQUNIX, a "non-business" aluminum factory, has produced a lot of mechanical keyboards. Not to mention, although it is called a "non-business" aluminum factory, the products produced are more and more popular. For example, the IQUNIX OG80 wormhole shared this time.

The product features are very obvious. The retro typewriter shape + transparent body + 83 key layout, all of which reflect individuality.

The packaging of the Wormhole OG80 is also more textured. A girdle is added to the outside of the packaging to separate the icons on the left and right sides of the front of the box. The name and appearance of the product are added to the girdle, and some production information of the product is on the back.

The switch body is marked on the side. I actually prefer the paragraph week, but in order to experience the hottest TTC gold powder switch at present, I chose the gold powder switch, which is also the model with the highest sales of this product.

Wormhole OG80 is packaged with upper and lower double-layer packaging, and all the accessories are "hidden" under the keyboard.

The accessories are relatively rich, and the accessories that come with the Wormhole OG80 are also quite rich: 4 gray 4 green 1 space key supplementary keycap, Type-c data cable, key + shaft two-in-one tool, USB- A to Type-c adapter, push-pull keyboard cleaning brush, manual, stickers, and a folded quick start instruction card.

The body of Wormhole OG80 adopts a matte transparent design. Although there is a matte mode in the options for sale, since they all choose a transparent body, why abandon RGB? What's so transparent about it? The actual look and feel of the transparent body is a bit translucent, and the visual and tactile sensations are obviously frosted.

Wormhole OG80 has its own slope at the front and back, which makes the light effect more intense. The inclination of the F function area is more obvious, which is further in line with the ergonomic design, and the wrist will not be too tired in the environment of long-term typing. Viewed from the side, the keycap also adopts a scheme with a height difference.

Wormhole OG80 adopts a compact layout of 83 keys, and all keys are "framed" in a rectangular range, which looks relatively regular. 80% of the key layout abandoned the small keyboard area and the multimedia function area. The arrow keys are on the lower right side of the keyboard. On the far right side of the keyboard are four function keys for document processing.

The attached 4 gray and 4 green keycaps are for MAC users. Yes, Wormhole OG80 supports MAC keys.

Because the number pad area is abandoned, the upper and lower case indicators are designed on the right side of the ESC key. This indicator has many other functions, and it is the only function indicator of the keyboard.

However, each lighting effect has a corresponding color. For example, the upper and lower case switching uses regular white.

A model nameplate is inlaid on the upper right side of the keyboard, which is full of ritual.

The rear side of the Wormhole OG80 adopts a fence-style design, and at the same time, the Type-c interface of the keyboard is on the right side, which means that the Wormhole OG80 uses a design with separated keys and wires.

The Type-c interface of Wormhole OG80 can not only realize wired connection, but also charge the keyboard. The OG80 has a built-in 2000mAh*2=4000mAh lithium battery, which can be used for up to 1 year without charging when connected via Bluetooth without turning on the RGB lighting effect, basically saying goodbye to power anxiety.

The Wormhole OG80 keycap is made of custom PBT material, which is not easy to oil after long-term use, and has a slightly matte texture to the touch. This is also the mainstream keycap material for mechanical keyboards at present. Each keycap has a certain concave curvature, which makes the fingertips feel more comfortable.

Wormhole OG80 large key space bar has a unique design style, which is the finishing touch on the entire front of the keyboard.

The large key adopts the balance bar scheme, the rebound is more obvious, and there is a sound-absorbing cotton hidden under the key.

The large key is coated with grease at the factory, which perfectly guarantees the feel of the large key. If the keycap is removed as little as possible when it is not necessary, the grease will flow out.

The four corners of the bottom of the Wormhole OG80 have non-slip foot pads respectively, and a nameplate consistent with the product style is printed in the middle, and some production information of the product is printed. Below is the switch of the keyboard, OFF is connected by cable, ON is connected by Bluetooth or 2.4GHz.

Wormhole OG80 supports wired connection, 2.4GHz connection, and Bluetooth (5.1) connection. After the switch on the back is selected on, the wireless connection will be activated, and the connected device can be switched through the Fn function key and the number keys 1-3 (Bluetooth), 4 (2.4GHz). The measured switching speed is very fast.

Wormhole OG80 has multiple versions to choose from. In addition to no light and RGB, the switch body options are also rich, including Cherry’s green black tea powder silver and TTC’s silent tea, ACE switch, gold powder switch, and fast silver switch. As mentioned earlier, in order to experience the hottest TTC gold powder switch recently, I bought a separate one.

Wormhole OG80 supports hot-swappable replacement of the shaft body, so even if a certain shaft body is selected, it can be replaced later according to your needs and preferences.

The shaft of the Wormhole OG80 adopts a double-needle design.

There is a hollow area on the top of the shaft body, which is used for light transmission of RGB lighting effects.

The TTC gold powder switch is indeed well-deserved of its reputation, and it is very easy to press, which is even better than the red switch. No wonder it has attracted most mechanical keyboard enthusiasts, and it belongs to the new fever reduction axis.

The main feature of Wormhole OG80 is the transparent keyboard body and RGB lighting effects (it is unlikely that anyone will buy the OG80 without lights), the lamp beads are in the upper part of the shaft body, because the shaft body is designed with a separate The light-transmitting parts, so the lighting effect is not bad.

The use of PBT keycaps means that the keycaps cannot reveal the RGB light, but the body of the Wormhole OG80 can.

Looking from the back, the lighting effect of the Wormhole OG80 can be seen through the transparent body on the back.

The Wormhole OG80 uses 83 keys, all keys have no punch.

Wormhole OG80 has rich lighting effects, which can be switched through the Fn function key and PGUPPGDNHOMEEND on the far right.

Thanks to the transparent body, no matter from which angle you look at it, the lighting effect is full.
