The collision of metal aesthetics and technology, with both ultra-long battery life and multi-mode connection - demo of Rapoo V700-8A mechanical keyboard

Personally, my requirements for computer peripherals are not extreme, so long as they are easy to use, I will use them to play with some relatively special products. This time, I encountered the latest V700-8A mechanical keyboard released by Rapoo. Its The appearance design is very beautiful, especially the 2-month long standby function is far beyond my expectation, without further ado, let’s take a look at it together now.

The outer packaging of this keyboard adopts a classic blue and black appearance design, and a disposable sealing sticker is added to the opening.

There are pearl sponge bases on both sides of the internal keyboard for protection, and each component is equipped with a bag package for protection, which can effectively prevent accidental drops or water ingress on the way.

The whole box of products mainly includes Rapoo V700-8A mechanical keyboard, key lifter, 2.4GHz receiving terminal, TYPE-C charging cable and manual.

As a game mechanical keyboard, the Rapoo V700-8A mechanical keyboard adopts a relatively compact 84-key layout design in appearance, abandoning the traditional number keys that are rarely used on the right side, and it will appear more flexible in operation. Shrunk to only 310.1mm*120.2mm*35.5mm, it can be placed in a backpack and carried out.

According to engineering principles, the design of the key body provides a slightly inclined angle, which is convenient for the placement of fingers during use, and it is not easy to feel tired when typing for a long time. Moreover, the manufacturer also configures a foldable foot support at the bottom of the keyboard, which is very convenient. It is suitable for people with different usage habits.

According to the color distribution and arrangement of the keycaps, the keyboard can be divided into three styles: Lonely Brave, No Man’s Land and Mecha Purple, among which my style is Mecha Purple. According to the color and performance of the key shaft, it can be divided into black, green, tea, and red four-axis keyboards, all of which use the 6000W lifespan key shaft self-developed by Rapoo, so that you will not have the idea of ​​replacing the keyboard in the next ten years. This keyboard is mainly for gaming, so the black switch is selected as the main key switch. When using it, there is a slight press damping, no sense of paragraph, the rebound speed is moderate, and the operation is relatively quiet.

The floating keycap design is not only conducive to drainage, but also convenient for daily dust removal. In order to better clean the dust at the bottom of the keys, the manufacturer also provides a key lifter for easy use.

The keycaps on the keyboard are made of two-color injection molding process, which is durable and light-transmitting. However, the manufacturer did not specify whether it is made of ABS or PBT in terms of material selection. In terms of workmanship quality, it is quite good.

The surface of the keycap has also been frosted, which is basically not easy to oil after long-term use, and the fingertips feel relatively comfortable.

What is rare is that Rapoo has added a silver-gray aluminum alloy frame design to this keyboard. The CNC-cut frame and the connection between the components are relatively tight, which makes the Rapoo LOGO icon on the front end quite dazzling. In addition, the edges and corners around have also been chamfered, and the surface of the frame has also been treated with sandblasting and oxidation, which makes it feel relatively heavy and stable, smooth and burr-free. The use of aluminum alloy not only greatly improves the grade of the product, but also indirectly improves the rigidity of the product, making the product more durable, but the weight has also reached 787g.

The only fly in the ointment is that the bottom panel of the keyboard is made of plastic, and there is no visible drainage hole design, so the product can only cope with general splash damage in terms of waterproof performance.

The keyboard switch is embedded in the bottom and adopts a sliding button design.

Whether the keyboard is easy to use or not, compatibility is the most important. At present, this keyboard provides multiple connection methods such as Bluetooth 5.0, Bluetooth 3.0, 2.4Ghz and wired connection, which can realize seamless switching between a maximum of 5 devices. Compatible with various devices, to achieve a true separation of key lines, and lower power consumption and low latency performance can also improve the product's excellent performance in games.

Paired with a built-in 4000mAh battery and Rapoo low-power wireless technology blessing, it can achieve an ultra-long battery life of 1 week to 2 months in a fully charged wireless situation. The use of the TYPE-C charging interface also greatly reduces the need to bring one more The trouble of the line, through its use, it can also realize the function of charging and using at the same time. The design of the keyboard is very advanced with the times.

The additional Fn function key is also indispensable, which is a common key for quick access to other functions.

For example, through the use of the Fn+Ctrl+R key combination, the keyboard can display 7 different backlight display effects and LOGO lights in turn, and the combination of the Fn function key and the up, down, left, and right keys can quickly complete the 4-level brightness adjustment of the keyboard backlight As well as the frequency and speed adjustment of the light display effect, combined with the F1~F11 keys, you can quickly call the multimedia software functions on the computer, so as to realize the fast call of the computer media functions.

Through the driver settings on the computer side, the keyboard can also realize the macro function of all 84 keys, so that you can not only experience the function of one-key combo in the game, but also upload the configuration file to the cloud sharing by logging in to the V series smart cloud storage , share the experience with other players, but the realization of this function can only be carried out in wired mode.

It is worth mentioning that the keyboard can only fully realize the full-key no-click function only in the wired connection mode. In the wireless mode, it can only support the use of any 6-key no-key click, and the measured delay can reach as low as 2ms Left and right, it can fully satisfy the use of e-sports games.
