Key Words Key Words Chapter Thirty-five: The new work of the king of key circles, this time with Kuaiyin V2 and Royal Axe Y98 mechanical keyboard experience.

The brand of Royal Axe has been at the top of the market since its launch at the beginning of this year, and the R series has directly brought down the price of the gold powder shaft in the market. During the period of 618, Y68, the first keyboard of the Y series, was launched. The metal edging design and excellent feel also achieved good sales in the market.

Now, at the beginning of the school season at the end of August and the beginning of September, Royal Ax has launched the follow-up products of the Y series, Y87 and Y98. After I got the Y98 and used it as the main keyboard for a period of time, I will share my experience with you today.

Not much to say about the packaging, Royal Ax has always had a double-layer packaging design, and continues the unique accessory layout of the Y series, the entire packaging looks very long. There are still four color schemes for this sale, and mine is called Steampunk, which is very industrial style.

The internal accessories are very rich, as always, there are four free switches, but this time, there are two types of switches, the gold powder switch V2 and the newly released fast silver switch V2. The pressure of Kuaiyin v2 is slightly higher than that of the gold powder switch, and at the same time, the trigger key stroke is shorter, which is more suitable for gamers.

The key puller and shaft puller, the biggest highlight is an aviation plug-in cable. Similar cables cost 30 to 40 yuan online, and the Y-series aviation plug-in cables of Royal Axe are standard configurations. It will also match the case.

Of course, what is the use of this aviation plug-in cable? Well, mainly handsome.

In terms of appearance, it can be said that it completely continues the design of the Y68. But here is an additional thing to say that the newly launched Y87 and Y98 should be the first time that Royal Ax has launched a keyboard with separate F area and main key area. All the keyboards of the previous Royal Axe were compactly arranged.

Compared with the Y68 released during 618, the entire design style language can be said to be in the same strain.

This 98 configuration will not involve patent issues. The F area adopts a compact design, and the upper right corner is still the ancestral mode switching knob, which looks quite metallic.

The side is still a thick metal edging design with perforations, which makes the temperament of the entire keyboard tough. In addition to decoration and counterweight, these two pieces of metal edging can effectively reduce the vibration of the plastic shell of the keyboard during typing, making typing more comfortable.

The foot support part adopts a replacement design that is more common in customization. Pull the groove to remove the short foot support and replace it with a high foot support.

Although this appearance has some references to many classic designs, the overall originality is very high. Naturally, there is no lack of customized soul and metal nameplate on the back. What's more interesting is that Yufu Y98 even wrote the axis of this keyboard. on the nameplate.

Compared with the R series, the Y series has an independent switch on the top, which is really meaningful for the power saving of the three-mode keyboard.

The mode switching knob, when looking at the renderings before, I felt that the horizontal direction is not as good as the vertical direction of the Y68, but it is quite pleasing to the eye after seeing the real thing. and it fits this

First of all, from the overall appearance, Y98 is a relatively tough design, with industrial style patterns and plastic shells with metal edging. It feels heavy on the table.

The backlight of the Y series is a reverse-mounted LED RGB light, which is compatible with the condenser axis. The brightness is very good, and the effect can be adjusted through the driver of the royal axe.

On the front, back and metal nameplate of the keyboard, there are patterns and name logos of Yufu. Yufu is very good at inserting its own brand elements in suitable corners, including the appearance of R series and Y series, which are unique in the market and are definitely authentic. A model of design.

One of the highlights of the Y series this time is the use of the TTC Kuaiyin V2 shaft that has just been launched on the market. The pressure of 43g can be triggered at 1.2mm. It comes with factory lubrication, and the entire shaft feels very moist and comfortable. Moreover, it has inherited the consistent characteristics of the TTC brand shaft body - the long spring design, and the rebound is very easy to follow.

Compared with the first generation, Kuaiyin V2 has improved contacts, which greatly reduces the possibility of broken contacts after long-term use, allowing the shaft to have a longer service life. In addition, the Royal Axe still supports hot-swappable design. When you unplug the shaft body, you can see the sound-proof silicone between the PCB and the positioning board.

The keycap adopts the conventional OEM height, with its own height difference, and the surface has fine frosted texture, which feels very comfortable to the touch. The outlet treatment on the back is also relatively regular.

This keycap also uses two-color crafted closed characters. The characters on the yellow keycap are black and shiny, and no matter whether it is black or white, the position of the characters has no obvious unevenness to the touch. It can be seen that the level of craftsmanship is very high.

The biggest advantage of the 98 design is that it retains the complete number area and the arrow keys. At the same time, there is a small gap between the arrow keys and the right shift, which greatly reduces the chance of accidental touch.

Judging from the sound of typing, the Yufu Y98 is not very "HIFI", and the bottoming sound is not loud. Although it is still a metal positioning plate, the feedback is relatively soft. The metal edging acts as a counterweight to the entire keyboard, and when the impact vibration generated by typing on the positioning plate penetrates the shell, the metal edging well resolves the vibration. Therefore, although the sound is not loud, the button sound of Y98 is very clean and there is no cavity sound.

Many friends will pay more attention to the adjustment of the large keys of the mechanical keyboard. The Y series of Yufu has done a good job in this regard. The space is clean and there is no noise, and it is very comfortable to tilt the hands and ears. The level of other big keys is also very online. It belongs to a keyboard that can be used without the need for post-modification.

In addition, the two wireless modes of this keyboard, the Bluetooth and 2.4G connections are very stable, and there is no obvious delay.

If you need it, the Royal Axe also has a driver that can be used to adjust the lighting and keys.

A friend told me that domestic brands of mechanical keyboards are too difficult now. In the past, a keyboard could earn half of the profit, but now the profit is too low. As a fully competitive market, relying on the strong strength of the parent company, Royal Ax has equipped the best mass-produced shaft body in the market at a very low price, as well as comprehensive functions including three-mode, RGB, and hot-swappable. .

The Y series is quite individual, and the appearance of a very customized style will inevitably increase a lot of cost.

And this time the pre-sale started on August 22, 449 yuan for the 68-key position, 499 yuan for the 87-key position, and 549 yuan for the 98-key position. One of the keyboards of Silver Switch V2.

It seems that from the moment of its birth, Royal Ax is ready to make the domestic mechanical keyboard market, which is already a red sea, roll up more intensely.

Again, domestic mechanical keyboard consumers are the happiest.
