Technology and Digital Show Chapter 383: 80mm simplified but still enjoy the full keys, Lofree Luofei Xinghe Xiaoqiao 100-key mechanical keyboard evaluation

I have evaluated countless mechanical keyboards with 68 configurations, many of which are very small and attractive, whether it is the appearance, the sense of the paragraph of the key, or the feeling of tapping, it is not necessarily satisfactory. It can be said that it is suitable for most users. It is quite recommendable, but for a code word party like me, who always deals with numbers in his work, the 68 arrangement seems somewhat powerless, and it does affect my work efficiency.

I accidentally discovered on the Internet that the cutting-edge artist Tian Danlu has jointly produced a mechanical keyboard with Lofree Luofei. I admired Tian Danlu's works before, and the embossed bright colors have their own unique charm. The 2㎡ digital device on the desktop also has its own unique features. The combination of the two, colliding with the Lofree Luofei Xinghe Xiaoqiao mechanical keyboard, is particularly interesting.

In addition to the blessing of the joint name, there is another reason for me to start, that is, it is equipped with common function keys for PRTSC screen capture, DEL deletion, HOME/END, PGUP/PGDN page up and down, which are commonly used in the 104 full keyboard. And the most important numeric keypad area, but its 100 layout is 80mm shorter than the 104 full-key horizontal layout, which is undoubtedly more attractive to those keyboard users who like small and portable keyboards.

And this "Galaxy"-themed Lofree Luofei Xiaoqiao is based on Tian Danlu's embossed works, and absorbs the same color contrast design. The overall keyboard is dark blue and purple, gradually transitioning to light pink and light blue, and Embellished with orange yellow, forming such a unique nebula-like hue, the appearance is super high.

Lofree Luofei Xinghe belongs to the Xiaoqiao series, so the ergonomics continues the unique curve style of Xiaoqiao. This style is also the only choice for mechanical keyboard circles today. Except for the ones made by Lofree Luofei, others are really good. No, maybe the patent ownership is with Lofree. Anyway, this curved design is really suitable for typing, and the code word feels better. The line is also very beautiful when viewed from the side, which is both beautiful and practical.

However, the Lofree Xiaoqiao series has always been powered by 3 AAA batteries, and Xinghe is no exception. Fortunately, the battery life of the Xiaoqiao series is very good. Basically, I don’t need to change the battery for three or four months. I even feel that my previous Lofree Luofei Xiaoqiao Tequila has not changed the battery for half a year, and it can still type. I feel that the official battery life is "false standard", and the actual use time is several times longer.

As a three-mode mechanical keyboard, Lofree Xinghe Xiaoqiao supports wired connection, wireless 2.4G connection and BT Bluetooth connection. When using it, turn the knob on the right rear of the keyboard to the corresponding position. ON means wired, BT/2.4G They are bluetooth and wireless respectively.

If your desktop PC or laptop supports Bluetooth, I personally recommend using Bluetooth, because compared to 2.4G wireless, Bluetooth technology will save more power when connected. Press FN+1, 2, 3 to switch between three different devices. To switch (note that the Bluetooth device name is: Touch100@Lofree), FN+4 is to switch to 2.4G wireless mode.

Another point I like very much is that the F functional area of ​​Lofree Xinghe Xiaoqiao integrates the second layer of functions, such as the FN+F functional area can quickly switch mute, avoiding accidental sound and embarrassment during work, including the volume Addition and subtraction, music playback pause, up and down a song, etc., the shortcut key design is quite reasonable.

Lofree Xinghe Xiaoqiao supports full-key hot-swapping. The Xinghe I bought belongs to the Jiadalong G Red Pro switch body. It feels very silky, and the percussion sound is soft and sweet, and the sound is not like that of traditional mechanical keyboards. It is very large, and there is no crackling feeling, but it is still very enjoyable. It does not disturb other people's work, and you can enjoy the experience of mechanical tapping, which is very comfortable.

The keycaps of Lofree Xinghe Xiaoqiao are made of PBT thermal sublimation technology, the colors are bright and beautiful, and the color will not fade after long-term use. The Lofree 100 series is the same as the 68 series, and there are also a variety of keycaps to match, such as cute cat themes, street attitude, community animal bananas, terracotta warriors, and raising a sheep. Various PBT keycaps can be matched, Full of sense of design.

With this keyboard, it satisfies my needs for office codewords and digital areas. The super-high appearance, Tian Danlu joint name, Xiaoqiao classic curve design, three-mode connection, and super comfortable percussion feel are just specially designed for me. A kind of code word party design, thanks to Lofree Luofei for bringing such a classic Xinghe Xiaoqiao mechanical keyboard, love it!
