Kaihua Turbo shaft body, dual-mode wireless backlight, battery life for nearly one year, Dujia Hi Keys hands-on experience

Due to the fact that I usually need a lot of input, I often choose the full-key array as the main keyboard, which also makes me miss many interesting small keyboards. Fortunately! This is not absolute. I will also start with some small keyboards with high appearance and excellent performance for daily travel and outdoor environments. The keyboard in my office is Duga 610W. Its super battery life, efficient input, quiet work and comfortable feel meet my various needs in the office environment; that is, under the actual experience of this keyboard, let me I have a deep impression on the peripheral brand of Dujia.

At the end of November, Dujia quietly launched a new keyboard "Hi Keys" that is very suitable for the tastes of young people. Its performance can be called a dark horse among the new keypads in the second half of the year.

Although the membrane keyboard is cheaper, judging from the choices of many people around me, they either don’t choose it or they must give priority to the mechanical keyboard. In addition to the price, the membrane keyboard is not only about the appearance, feel, performance or further personality. There is no advantage to the optimization, macro definition, etc. After all, people who often use computers will have a certain pursuit of quality of life.

But how to choose a cost-effective mechanical keyboard that you like and the price is right? In my opinion, there are only a few points: first, the thickness of the purse determines the grade you can buy; second, the plate body determines the performance, and a brand with a good reputation can often accompany you for a longer time; third, the eye-catching appearance, suitable for your table style; The fourth is the key array, the shaft body and the corresponding battery life, connection mode and so on. Everyone's use environment, table style, and needs are different, so there is no standard answer to this question.

In a non-office environment, I actually prefer an 84-key array keypad such as Duga Hi Keys. It is not only easy to carry, but also has a rich key arrangement and appearance. It can be said that apart from the office environment where a large number of digital information is entered In addition, the 84-key array keypad is the first choice of many friends. Judging from the packaging, Dujiaxin’s Hi-series new keyboard has a very active style in terms of lively fonts, line outlines, and graphic embellishments. For young people who pursue fashion and individuality, this packaging has great Looking forward to it.

If you don’t count the membrane keyboard, Durga Hi Keys is the second small keyboard I bought. After getting started, it gave me the biggest feeling, it’s almost shrunk to the limit and the unique keycap design, even if I bought it many times before Among the mechanical keyboards, they all have a high degree of recognition.

Dujia Hi Keys has two themes, dark blue and silver white, both of which are 84-key arrays. Both themes are actually in line with my aesthetics. Considering that I already have a white one in my hand, and the beauty strongly recommends it, So I chose the Durga Hi Keys with the blue theme. Compared with the full-key array keyboard, the 84-key array simple layout Duga Hi Keys takes up less space and is easier to carry. It is especially suitable for friends who have limited desktop space or use laptops as production tools.

Under its compact key layout, it shows an excellent frame shrinking effect. Except for the keypad, it has the functions of commonly used keys. With the theme color of dark blue as the background, the main function keys also use gray/yellow combination. scheme, making it look small and delicate, yet very active.

Since I have been tossing about the table layout for more than half a year, I attach great importance to the appearance, so I have several sets of various keyboards and keycaps in hand, and I change the style of the table from time to time. Take Dujia Hi Keys as an example. In addition to its appearance and size, it surprises me. Its keycap design full of visual impact makes me fall in love with this keyboard instantly.

The keycaps of Duga Hi Keys are square and trapezoidal with the common OEM and MAD height keycaps on the market, both in height and shape.

It adopts the short axis square round keycap scheme, and further optimizes the feel of the keycap. On the basis of the squareness, the keycap has a certain arc contraction on all sides, so that the arrangement of each key is orderly under the compact layout. , There is ample space between the keys, and it also shows a good three-dimensional effect.

In addition, the key position curve of Dujia Hi Keys adopts a newly designed ergonomic key position curve. With the new square and round keycap design, it brings me a different input experience from the common concave arc curve design. .

Under the curve design dominated by the letter area, the input feedback between the key layouts of Dujia Hi Keys is straightforward, and the number area and functions are not treated with too much height difference, and the entire key surface shows a good performance. smooth transition.

The demand for keyboard backlight actually depends on the individual and the environment. After all, not everyone plays e-sports, and not everyone likes colorful RGB light effects. Personally, I still prefer the pure white light effect of Duga Hi Keys, especially when the code is silently overflowing at night, its soft white light shines through the keycap, which will neither look dull nor fancy Moonlight shines through the silvery clouds.

Although there is no colorful RGB light effect, Dujia Hi Keys still brings me 8 light effect modes. I only need to use the FN+F2 shortcut key combination to be able to switch between "constant light, rotation, breathing, starry, and response" , Laser, Ripples, and Waves", among which is my favorite ripple light effect. In addition, Dujia Hi Keys has common shortcut key combinations such as ambient light on/off, brightness adjustment, and media control.

In terms of keys, in addition to the power toggle key with status indicator backlight effect on the left side of the keyboard, Dujia Hi Keys also has a very personalized indium-plated toggle switch on the top. Compared with the common knob and key switch design, the indium-plated toggle switch of Durga Hi Keys is not only more convenient and accurate in mode switching, but also brings a more agile side to the entire keyboard, with a finishing touch.

Durga Hi Keys is a dual-mode keyboard, which provides two modes of 2.4GHz and Bluetooth, which caters to the use of various devices with wireless as the main line. By flipping the indium-plated toggle switch, I can flexibly switch between two Bluetooth devices and one 2.4GHz device, which is completely sufficient for desktops, notebooks and TVs that I usually need to use keyboards.

The battery life of wireless keyboards has always been a problem for various brands, and the backlight effect is undoubtedly worse. Compared with the trouble of charging, some friends prefer to use a wired keyboard with a tail when traveling.

Fortunately, for Durga Hi Keys, the battery life is not its problem but its advantage. Although it is not as good as the Durga 610W matte version with a one-year battery life, Dujia Hi Keys can be fully charged. About 3 hours, 100% brightness for 7-30 days, 50% brightness for 14-60 days, 25% brightness for 28-90 days; turn off the light effect and use Bluetooth for 260 days, and 2.4GHz for 200 days, which can fully guarantee my travel. No worries.

Different from the young and active Dujia Hi Keys, its chassis has an extremely stable side. The mainly flat chassis shows the English logo of Dujia in a large area. In addition to the non-slip silicone feet, there is a piece of non-slip silicone on the top that spans almost four-fifths of the width. Compared with the four-point anti-slip support, it shows more high stability.

In terms of height adjustment, Durga Hi Keys provides a common two-stage height adjustment scheme. From my actual hand experience, I don’t need to use supporting feet in most environments. Its own ergonomic curve design can already bring me a very comfortable typing feeling.

In addition, the storage compartment of Dujia Hi Keys also has a very considerate performance, which even caught me by surprise when I am used to flipping, pushing and pulling, and plugging in. It adopts the design of the magnetic suction compartment cover, which can be opened by lightly pressing both sides of the cover plate, which is very convenient for storage or removal, and there is no need to worry about the cover plate being lost. The technology is not high, but the practicability is extremely strong. It solves all storage, dustproof, and cumbersome, and it is easy to quickly take it out when needed.

If the disc body is the cornerstone of the keyboard, then the shaft body and keycaps should be the key to determining the comfort of the keyboard. Dujia Hi Keys provides two schemes, the paragraph tea switch and the linear mute red switch, and these two switches are from the Turbo series of the domestic head switch brand Kaihua.

Take the paragraph tea switch I chose as an example. The trigger stroke of this Dujia Hi Keys equipped with Kaihua Turbo Brown switch is 3.6±0.4mm, and the trigger pressure is 40±10gf. Compared with the silent red switch, the trigger stroke is shorter and the pressure is higher. smaller.

Like when I usually type a lot, the rhythm sense of the paragraph tea shaft can often bring me higher efficiency, and the panacea characteristics of the tea shaft itself have both office and entertainment environments. Perhaps it is due to personal preference. So far, the switches of my mechanical keyboards are all brown switches. Maybe I should try other switches in the future.

Kaihua Turbo series, as a shaft series with a very good domestic mass base, has always had excellent feedback whether it is user word-of-mouth or market inspection; therefore, the actual experience performance of Dujia Hi Keys shaft body experience is still good. Of course, if I have ideas and needs in the later stage, I can also replace the shaft body by myself. The flexible customization of personality is also the fascination of mechanical keyboards, but one thing to note is that Dujia Hi Keys does not support hot swapping.

Perhaps because of the compact design of the keys, although the large keys such as space and shift, Dujia Hi Keys use satellite axes, but do not use a balance bar.

From the point of view of actual use, the feel feedback of Dujia Hi Keys is still very comfortable, the tapping is accurate and there is no noise, no matter which position is tapped, there is actually no big difference.

Finally, let’s talk about the compatibility performance of Durga Hi Keys. Durga Hi Keys provides a comprehensive system compatibility solution, which can automatically identify the connected device system for switching. Common Windows, Mac OS, iOS, Android and other systems can Perfect compatibility, combined with its 2.4GHz+Bluetooth dual-mode design, can easily meet the rapid conversion between multiple platforms and multiple devices.

Judging from the experience of using it for many days, Dujia Hi Keys is a wireless dual-mode mechanical keyboard with accurate positioning and high recognition. It combines the innovative square and round keycap design in the color matching and matching of the appearance value, making the whole keyboard look small and exquisite but three-dimensional. The keys have enough gaps and intervals, further combined with the brand-new ergonomic key curve And the Kaihua Turbo shaft brings a comfortable feel to the percussion input.

I think Durga Hi Keys is a keyboard that takes a simple route but has a solid technical foundation. Although it does not have colorful RGB light effects and does not support wired use, the elegant white light effects bring a simple aesthetic feeling and cater to the trend of wireless mainstream. There are a variety of light effect modes, support for shaft/keycap personalization, and multi-device compatibility. It can be said that it can meet all my needs for the keyboard except for the environment where I need to enter numbers frequently, and the "every inch of land and every inch of gold" desktop space has also been maximized, making the table simple and full of vitality.
