Peripherals Part 4: ​Art and performance integrated into mechanical keyboards, Lofree Luofei Xinghetian Danlu joint model

In traditional keyboards, if we distinguish them according to the number of keys, there are two common types of keyboards, one is a 104-key keyboard suitable for daily office use, which is what we often call a full-key keyboard, and the other is a relatively It is suitable for the 87-key keyboard with codeword and portable needs, that is, the keyboard that cancels the number keys. But now, the keyboard has evolved into a keyboard with 84 keys and a smaller volume; a keyboard and a mouse with 100 keys have more functions and a smaller volume. Lofree Luo Fei's new Galaxy is a more representative 100-key keyboard.

This time Galaxy was built together with the designer and the artist Tian Danlu to design a keyboard with the color of Tian Danlu. The overall color of the keyboard has very bright colors and embossed color blocks, which can add more art to life the taste of.

Lofree culture, which comes from design aesthetics, has always been excellent in product design. Xinghe uses the classic small warp design, which is also Lofree’s own understanding of peripheral aesthetics. The entire keyboard presents a sleek design style.

Viewed from the side of the keyboard, the bottom plate and frame are designed in an arc shape, and the frame on the right has a logo of 100 keys, and "CONNECT YOUR MIND WITH EVERY TOUCH", the combination of small characters and icons, has a strong sense of design, The visuals are great.

There is a Lofree brand LOGO on the side of the keyboard, which is a design feature of Lofree Xiaoqiao. The bottom is supported by foot pads, and there is a floating visual effect from the front.

Xiaoqiao's design abandons the traditional foot support design, and the unique circular battery compartment replaces the design of the foot support. There is no folding foot support, although there will be certain limitations in the freedom of angle, but just experience From the point of view, it can still meet my keyboard usage habits.

The small warped keycap is very distinctive, with an arc-shaped design, high on the four sides and low in the middle, showing a concave state, while the outside is convex, and the height design is not the same as the ordinary keycap. The cap is higher, which is actually very obvious on the keyboard.

The galaxy of the keyboard name is reflected in the color matching of the keycaps, and the keycaps are not simple solid colors or double color matching. The color matching of Galaxy is very interesting. There are gradients and contrasting colors, including purple, blue, orange, etc. Just like Galaxy, it is regular and beautiful. Whether it is a boy or a girl, there is no way to refuse this design. At the same time, the keycap adopts the PBT five-sided thermal sublimation process, which also avoids the occurrence of slippage on the keyboard surface.

The appearance of Xinghe is very high, and the experience of using it is also very good. The mechanical switch uses Jiadalong's G red Pro switch body, which is currently a very good domestic mechanical switch, and it is also a relatively large number of bearings used in domestic mid-to-high-end keyboards.

Judging from the feel of use, the percussion feel of the G Red Pro is relatively comfortable, with a total stroke of about 4mm, a trigger stroke of about 2mm, and an operating force of 45G. Regardless of the strength or height of the percussion, it is more comfortable. At the same time, as a linear switch, it does not have the sense of paragraph like the green switch, but it also has the feedback of spring sound.

In terms of game experience, it may not be as perfect as the green axis. But the red switch gives me the feeling that the experience is more comprehensive, not only has the experience of high-quality mechanical switches, but also is very suitable for daily home office use. The percussion sound of the red switch is relatively light among mechanical switches, and it is more suitable for use in bedrooms and offices. In the use of code words and game entertainment, the experience is still very good.

Lofree's products have always been very playable, and this time Xinghe also has this feature. The full key continues to support hot-swapping, which is a very good choice for players who like the small warp design but have more needs for the key shaft. The overall material is sufficient, and the design of the four-layer bottom plate includes Without the main body of the keyboard, PCB board, silicone sandwich pad, and positioning plate, after switching the bearings, it can still maintain very good stability.

Galaxy, as a 100-key keyboard jointly created by Lofree and artists, not only has a good keyboard experience, but also realizes the slogan of adding an artistic atmosphere to the office. The design of Tian Danlu artist, the style of Lofree Luofei, the bearing of Jiadalong, the characteristic keycap, and support three-mode connection at the same time, whether it is a performance user or a party of beauty, the design and function of Lofree Luofei Galaxy can well satisfy I have a demand for a good-looking performance keyboard.
