RGB lighting effect, 104 keys support hot swap, Rapoo V700DIY customized keyboard unleash your creativity!

As customization is becoming more and more popular among peripheral players, DIY keyboards or mice are becoming easier and more convenient. Although traditional mechanical keyboards can also be used, they do lag behind customization in terms of functionality and playability. Uncle V is also a digital player who loves to toss and fiddle, and he wants to take back all the interesting keyboards that appear on the market. The newly launched Rapoo V700DIY mechanical keyboard can meet the needs of customization. It supports hot swapping, has RGB lighting effects, and is more friendly to gamers. After a period of experience, let me share with you the specific performance of this keyboard!

Let’s take a simple unpacking first. In terms of the outer packaging, Rapoo V700DIY continues the style of this brand, with a high degree of recognition. The front is a physical picture of the product, which is clear at a glance. In terms of family portraits, in addition to the main body of the keyboard, there are manuals, key pullers and Type-C cables.

Rapoo V700DIY is only available in white version. The upper cover of the keyboard is made of silver aluminum alloy panel, with white keycaps and white bottom cover, which is very integrated. As a 104-key full-size keyboard, its functions and experience are relatively complete, whether it is the number key area or the function keys in the upper right corner are very practical. It has four non-slip feet on the bottom, and two 2-stage support feet, all of which are made of silicone, which have excellent anti-slip performance and are very stable on the desktop.

As a mechanical keyboard that supports hot-swapping, replacing the shaft body can bring players a different experience and feel. Rapoo V700DIY adopts a standard five-legged axle seat, which is compatible with most of the customized axles of brands on the market, such as Cherry, Jiadalong, TTC, Kaihua and so on. It is understood that the plugging life of the shaft seat reaches 10,000 times, and there is no need to worry about damage in normal use.

In terms of the shaft body, the Rapoo V700DIY is originally equipped with an independent fast silver shaft. The total stroke of this linear shaft body is 4mm, the trigger stroke: 1.3mm, and the trigger pressure of the shaft body: 45g. game scene. This 104-key full-size conflict-free, supports RGB backlight, and you can DIY a set of your own keyboard by changing the axis by yourself.

Next, we will replace the shaft body. We chose the KA-12 linear spring white shaft independently developed by Pennefather. The white shaft body is also chosen for the uniformity of appearance. Although it is not always possible to see the internal shaft body, it is very important for hardware control. I can't bear the color difference. The total stroke of the spring white switch: 3.4mm, the trigger stroke: 1.2mm, the trigger pressure: 35g, and it is also a light pressure switch, which is more suitable for users who type for a long time, because they usually play less games, so it is more suitable to choose this switch.

Rapoo's linear elastic switch has its own factory lubrication, it has light trigger pressure, and is very good in smoothness and sound control. As a shaft body with the bottom of the shaft, it has excellent resilience. Compared with the fast silver shaft, the feel brought by such bottoming will be obviously smoother, but the sound is more obvious than the silver shaft, which belongs to the performance and feel. A very representative shaft.

In fact, I have always liked products with lights. Rapoo V700DIY adopts RGB backlight design. It supports 18 lighting modes, including: blooming flowers, drifting with the flow, breathing mode, stepping on the snow without trace, etc. It is more friendly to gamers, it supports custom lighting mode, you can independently set your favorite illusion lighting color with a single button, and create a unique lighting effect. When playing games, the sense of range is full!

Many gamers will not choose a Bluetooth keyboard, mainly because of its stability. The Rapoo V700DIY adopts the design of separating the keys and wires. It is easy to disassemble and assemble through the Type-C interface connection, and it can be stored well when not in use. There are 4 function keys in the upper right corner of the keyboard, as well as keyboard indicators and a scroll wheel key.

When playing games, the feedback is very clear every time you press, because the response time is short, it is very obvious when playing games such as racing or CS GO. Therefore, with the appearance unchanged, we can replace the switch body according to personal needs and feel. This kind of keyboard that creates a personal feel is very worth playing.

Because there are a lot of personal code words, and I usually do light work, so the demand for games is not very high. With the Rapoo linear spring switch, this mechanical keyboard can play a big role in my daily office work, and it will be easier and less labor-saving in the case of long-term coding. Of course, we can also mix and match switches, such as using silver switches and white switches together. If we are playing games, we can replace the commonly used buttons with our favorite switches. The experience of this mixed switch is still good.

It is worth mentioning that the Rapoo V700DIY also supports the Rapoo driver, which can be directly bound after downloading the software. Through the interface, you can see that the functions that can be set are very rich. Through these settings, some functions of the keyboard can be customized. In addition to the 5 function keys in the upper right corner, the 104 keys on the keyboard can also be independently programmed. And its backlight can also be set, you can choose the brightness, speed and light mode, which is very practical.

Summary: On the whole, this Pennefather V700DIY mechanical keyboard has an online appearance. It is made of aluminum alloy with white keycaps and RGB backlight, which has a very gaming atmosphere when used. As a hot-swappable RGB backlit gaming mechanical keyboard, its playability and experience are better than traditional mechanical keyboards, especially for gamers.
