The trend of "black through" and "colorful" strike

Black crystals from "Coming to Space".

Miwu recently released a new BLACK IO 83 keyboard. This keyboard is a bit interesting. From a distance, the overall appearance is dark black, and when viewed up close, it is transparent. The black shell, with RGB lighting effect, has a good overall appearance.

Let’s take a look at the overall appearance of the keyboard first~ The overall packaging is very high-end. The brand and product name are printed in gradient colors in the middle of the carton.

The material of the keyboard is relatively solid, and it is very heavy in the hand. The 83 keys can save more space on the desktop. Cool and very classy at the same time. The letters on the keycap are combined in silver and blue, and the handwriting is relatively clear.

The biggest highlight of the entire keyboard should be the RGB lighting effect, 48-bit RGB lighting effect, delicate lighting without flickering, Miwu really does what it says, in order to make the lighting effect more transparent, it uses PC material Keycaps and MX jellyfish switches, of course, have a disadvantage that the PC material will leave fingerprints during use.

In the overall design of the keyboard, Miwu still retains the upper forehead design and the switch buttons with different tactile sensations. The keyboard supports three-mode connections, namely 2.4G, Bluetooth and wired connections. The Bluetooth mode can switch between three devices, so in theory you can switch back and forth between five devices.

Finally, the key to the mechanical keyboard: the shaft and the overall structure.

BLACK IO adopts an all-silicone closed Gasket structure, and the all-silicone gasket can effectively reduce the noise when actually typing on the keyboard. Coupled with the reason of the shaft body, the sound of this keyboard is moderate during the typing process, even if it is used in the office, it will not be hit by colleagues. The shaft body is MX jellyfish shaft, which is described as more like a "tat-tat-tat" sound. There is no sense of paragraph when using it, and the rebound is still good.

It has to be said that the appearance and recognition are very cool, and the transparent design combined with the lighting effect is full of technology. The main control chip on the hardware is matched with QMK open source firmware, which can customize the buttons in all directions, and the playability is very high.
