The exciting moment is here, MelGeek Pixel, which was previously crowdfunded on kickstarter, is finally released and sold in China! Those who have been waiting for this keyboard must be impatient. At present, I have received this MelGeek Pixel compatible building block red, yellow, blue and white "Lego" keyboard. I will share it with you after opening the box for the first time on the whole network. use experience.

At first glance, is it impossible to tell that this is a mechanical keyboard? Haha, this is not the packaging, this is the back of the keyboard, you read that right, this pattern is completely DIY, you know, the back of the original keyboard is "blue", and you, It can be used to make a variety of colorful and arbitrary patterns. As a loyal fan of MelGeek, of course I spelled out the pattern of "I LOVE MELGEEK" at the first time. How about it, isn't it very handsome!

The above two pictures, this is the real packaging of the MelGeek Pixel building block mechanical keyboard, and its box is also very interesting, see the word "OPEN" on the right? When you toggle "OPEN" to the right side of the rectangular grid, the pattern in the middle of the entire packaging box will also change, from the "PIXEL" logo to the physical appearance of a mechanical keyboard, surrounded by various Emoticons are very interesting.

After opening the box, you can see the main body of the MelGeek Pixel building block keyboard and 4 accessory boxes. Besides the key puller and charging cable, what else is in the box? Let’s keep it a secret for now, let’s take a guess. MelGeek Pixel officially has 3 models, namely PALETTE palette, CANVAS canvas, and Christian Christian. What you see now is the version of PALETTE palette.

Although the mechanical keyboard of this color scheme is officially considered to be compatible with the concept of Lego bricks, in my opinion, don’t everyone think that the red, yellow, blue and white design is the color scheme of “Gundam”? Haha, this MelGeek Pixel Lego brick keyboard can also be called MelGeek Pixel Gundam keyboard, is there any?

Well, it’s not a secret, the four accessory boxes just mentioned are actually filled with small “building blocks” of various colors. Through colorful matching, you can spell out various patterns you like. I saw that there are quite a lot of colors in the official building blocks, but now I only have red, yellow, black, white, and blue in my hand. I look forward to providing us with more colors.

Simple and simple, you can easily spell out a "PIXEL" logo. I think MelGeek Pixel is especially suitable for those super players who like to build Lego blocks, because they have a lot of Lego blocks themselves, which can be built on MelGeek Pixel Compatible with building block mechanical keyboards, add your own personality and show your unique style.

OK, this is what my assembled MelGeek Pixel mechanical keyboard looks like. The left side and up and down are imitated Tetris, and the right side is assembled with a pattern of a PIXEL product model. By the way, it is mixed with my MOJO84 Dark Knight and MOJO Let's take a photo with PAD, a loyal fan of MelGeek.

Although I don’t have Lego blocks myself, I have to say that just throwing my Gundam figure there, it’s a natural match, and I even have an illusion that MelGeek Pixel is not compatible with building blocks, but compatible with Gundam. This color matching really cannot be said to be similar, it is exactly the same, haha.

The MelGeek Pixel mechanical keyboard supports hot-swapping. The keycap is the self-developed MLG height. The shaft uses the Kailh Kaihua BOX shaft. There are two types of shafts, the L linear shaft is 40g, and the T paragraph shaft is 45g. It is relatively moderate, especially suitable for codeword parties. If it is a game party, there is a problem that needs your attention.

That is, there is a transparent shell on the keycap of MelGeek Pixel. If you remove the transparent shell, you can even build blocks on the keycap, and the openness is a bit too high. However, my personal experience with this keycap is that it is slightly sunken in the middle, so if it is for gamers, it may be a little uncomfortable, so here is a reminder.

The front side can be built with various Lego blocks, which can be assembled at will, and the back side will naturally not fall down. The back opening of MelGeek Pixel is completely opened. Since the entire board is designed with building blocks, you can fully play on the back board. Imagine, draw all possible patterns, and many netizens have posted their own designs on the Internet, all of which are quite 6.

In addition, when we use the keyboard, everyone has their own preference for the tilt angle of the keyboard. This random DIY design on the back allows you to easily combine the silicone pad with the building blocks, and then realize your favorite. the angle of inclination.

In addition, there are status indicators on the top, left and right sides of the MelGeek Pixel building block keyboard body, and various lighting effects and different colors can be achieved by pressing Fn+Q/W/E and other keys. Bluetooth 5.1, wired, 2.4G 1000Hz refresh rate three-mode connection, the keyboard has a built-in 3100mAh super-large battery, basically you don’t have to worry about battery life, and you don’t need to charge for more than a month.

In terms of functions, it continues the KBTOOLS full-key custom modification tool that has always been unique to the MelGeek brand, such as key value modification and macro function customization, which are the same as MOJO68.

Generally speaking, compared with MOJO68 or MOJO84, the typing experience is less crisp and thicker, because the unique silicone bowl GASKET and inter-axis sound-absorbing cotton PORON will make users more comfortable, flexible and less prone to typing when typing. A certain typing sound is especially suitable for long-term codewords.

But I am very entangled, because in fact, I personally feel that those who play the MOJO series are the coders. In fact, the players who play MelGeek Pixel should be those veteran players who are born with personality and like Lego building blocks, or Gundam fans. The color matching will definitely win the hearts of these people. MelGeek Pixel can be regarded as the first magic-modified building block keyboard in the mechanical keyboard circle in the world. It has super playability and can print stickers by itself, and 88 keys can satisfy For most usage scenarios, grow grass with strength!
