My Road to Hands-on Learning Chapter 16: Double Twelve to One Year, Which Cherry Keyboard to Buy?

It’s the annual Double Twelve Shopping Festival again. Although last month’s Double 11 Shopping Festival, many people bought their favorite good things. However, some people will definitely not get on the car in time, and when they come to their senses, the special offer has ended. But don't be discouraged, in order to make up for everyone's regrets, Double Twelve is coming soon.

The most important thing about a mechanical keyboard is its switch body. As the core component of a mechanical keyboard, the Cherry MX mechanical switch is the representative of the mechanical switch. In addition, it also includes Cherry ML mechanical switches, ALPS mechanical switches, and Taiwan White switches. (very rare) and other three types of axes. Cherry MX mechanical switch is recognized as the most classic mechanical keyboard switch. The special feel and golden cross contacts make it double the quality. At the same time, the switch body of various colors has a great difference in feel, which can meet the various needs of different users.

This time, I would like to chat with you about the original keyboard of Cherry, which is different for you and for different users, which one should you choose?

Reason for recommendation: The Cherry MX8.0 mechanical keyboard uses the classic CherryMX mechanical switch and each switch is made by the original German factory. The CNC all-aluminum body is equipped with customized keycaps. One is not innovating for a high-quality typing experience. The white appearance is paired with crisp green shafts, allowing you to enjoy wonderful music while tapping.

Ordinary green switches are not really suitable for text editors, but for gamers, the sense of confirmation triggered by the green switch is very good, with both a "click" sound and a clear sense of paragraphs. Match it with Cherry Assistant to customize your own color, and it is also a beautiful scenery when not in use. Double 12 Jingdong price starting from 1099 yuan can also be said to be very cost-effective.

Recommended reason: As a 599 yuan cherry keyboard, the main keyboard of the student party. I think one of the highlights is the three-mode wireless mode, the innovative technology with a fast response of less than 1ms, the simultaneous connection of three devices, the 109 full key layout, and the MX red switch, whether it is a game or an office. The student party generally lives in the dormitory. When using the keyboard, the red switch will not make a more obvious sound like the green switch, which will affect others, and the red switch will not cause finger fatigue due to excessive pressure on the keys.

Reason for recommendation: MX8.2 adopts the original MX shaft body of German CHERRY, and it is equipped with three connection modes, intelligent battery management, and aluminum storage box, which can be said to be very suitable for friends who play games. high. At the same time, the 20-day wireless battery life and multi-device switching are also very suitable for office white-collar workers who have meetings in various scenarios every day. Occasionally, they can also compete in games during office work. At the same time, the obsidian version also customizes the exclusive three-transparent keycaps with exclusive lighting effects, making it easy to find the corresponding keys. At the same time, for those who pursue quality, the prices of 1549 and 1599 are also acceptable. Whether it is office or game, it can be competent.

Recommended reason: First of all, it is short, thin, and wireless.

CHERRY LP2.1, and metal case LP6.1. It can be considered as two keyboards with different appearance and materials on the same platform. They all adopt a compact 68-key layout scheme, equipped with LP short switches, and match a set of short keycaps to achieve a relatively slim design language. At the same time, it also has the advantage that it is relatively lightweight and very easy to carry. The LP6.1 with a metal case will be heavier. In terms of appearance, the LP2.1 with a plastic shell has rubber feet, while the LP6.1 with an all-aluminum body is a traditional tripod. The shell thickness and inclination angle are basically the same. There is a little difference in appearance, LP6.1 sinks slightly, the frame is higher than the liner, and there is a "waistline", which naturally looks better and distinguishes high and low positioning. Moreover, the aluminum body, in order to reduce the signal barrier, specially made a plastic cover nameplate on the front frame.

In terms of details, the LP2.1 plastic shell is treated with imitation marble snowflake texture, while the LP6.1 is anodized. Match the keycaps with corresponding colors.

The 68-key LP series can be said to be CHERRY's ultra-thin mechanical keyboards that are wireless, portable, and multi-platform compatible in the true sense. The first color matching is also quite rich. Compared with the same type of keyboard, its biggest feature is the CAWT wireless solution. It is an office body, but it has game-level wireless performance. At the same time, the price of version 2.1 is 699 yuan, and the price of version 6.1 is 1099 yuan. This price is also very sincere.

Reason for recommendation: Today, Cherry, the leader of the mechanical keyboard industry, has also launched the entry-level full-key mechanical keyboard KC200 MX series for office scenarios. The price has dropped but it still maintains the consistent high-quality features. The main selling point of the Cherry KC200 MX series is the Cherry MX shaft body + colorful color matching design. There are four colors of bronze, orange gray, blue and white color matching and pink color matching for users to choose from. At the same time, the price starting from 379 on Double Twelve is also very fragrant. up. For beauties, it is absolutely irresistible!

Of course, with a good keyboard, it’s not too much to add a good mouse. I recommend the Cherry MW5180 wireless Bluetooth mouse with a price of 99 yuan. It supports 2.4G wireless and Bluetooth dual-mode connection. The Bluetooth mode can also connect three devices at the same time. It is equipped with PixArt. High-precision optical tracking sensor, with 1200DPI, battery life up to 300 days, and the surface of the mouse is covered with a magnetic cover, which is convenient for users to match. The second half is designed with a certain radian to ensure that it can fit the palm better, and it is still not tired after long-term use. CHERRY MW5180 uses silicone rollers, irregular non-slip design on the side, and is equipped with multi-function indicator lights. The weight of the body is only 76g, which is light and easy to carry. Everything that has been used is good!

Reasons for recommendation CHERRY DW2300 keyboard and mouse set is a new product launched by CHERRY in the first quarter of 2022. It focuses on wireless low-latency, soft office, exquisite and full-featured office keyboard and mouse set.

Using advanced 2.4G wireless connection technology, a receiver is connected to the keyboard and mouse at the same time. The classic chocolate key, with its unique curved surface and rounded keycaps, fits your fingers and provides comfortable fingertip feedback.

The full-size key area has 8 shortcut keys with customizable functions. Lightweight mouse, only 70g without battery. The keyboard and mouse are designed with light-tone keys to effectively reduce noise and not disturb people. Low power consumption and long battery life. At the same time, the DW2300 adopts a retro design. The appearance of this keyboard can be said to be a direct blow to dimensionality reduction on the same type of office keyboard. The keys use a complete 104 keys, and there are independent numbers on the right. Keyboard, so it is still very comfortable for office parties. The edge transition of the keyboard is handled very well, and there will be no slight feeling when the palm is placed on it. There is also a fixed long foot pad at the bottom as a heightening foot support, which can improve the comfort of the wrist when typing and avoid fatigue after long-term use. The connection method adopts a 2.4G wireless connection method. The keyboard and mouse share the same receiver, which is very convenient for connecting to computers and other devices.

Since I have been tossing around with digital products, I have handled a lot of keyboards, but not many left in the end. I have been superstitious about "powerful miracles", and I have also tried "domestic electrostatic capacitors". It is not whether the keyboard is good or bad, but I have been looking for it. A keyboard that suits you. Now the main keyboard in my hand is the 3494 red with side-engraved keycaps replaced, and it has been used for a long time. Friends who have touched it are full of praise for its feel. I believe that after continuous exploration, everyone will find a good keyboard that suits them. This Double Twelve, just bravely chop your hands!
