Mouse roll, mouse roll, mouse roll, keyboard roll. With the price of keyboards from Dareu, VGN and other manufacturers getting lower and lower, the prelude to this wave of keyboard inversion frenzy has also begun.
The protagonist of this article is the K104 keyboard of the "Wrangler", which has always been at the low end of the price chain. Taking advantage of everyone’s small arrangement, the Wrangler immediately launched a 104-arrangement keyboard to seize the low-end market for players who need 104-key positions, and the actual experience of this keyboard is not bad at this price.
The first is simple unboxing.
The one I got is a Wrangler white of k104 series , this one will have an optional package, in addition to the original white keycaps, there is an extra set of summer-themed keycaps with Shuangpi Nai (there is also a pink heart-themed keycap, which I personally think looks better, A must-have for macho), this set of keyboards is to be displayed.
This keyboard does not have different packages designed in black and white, and the cover of the package is all black keyboard styles. The keycaps are packed in a box separately. Upper and lower layers, 104 + 16 supplementary keycaps 。
The accessories of this keyboard are very simple, a shaft puller, an instruction manual, and a keyboard constitute everything. (This shaft puller can be used for both purposes, but it is very difficult to pull out the keycap)
As you can see from the back of the keyboard, it is still the keyboard Regular three outlets , but unfortunately the line of this keyboard cannot be disassembled. After getting used to the design of the double-height stand, it is still a little uncomfortable to use the stand with only one height.
The overall design of the keyboard is a normal 104-key keyboard design.
After talking about the appearance, let’s talk about some designs of this keyboard. The keyboard is hot-swappable, but not many, only Large keys support hot swap , if you want to use this keyboard, it is strongly recommended to replace the satellite axis of the space bar. Although there are some differences in the experience of other large keys, at least the rebound is very good, but It is really obvious that the space is very soft when pressed, and the rebound is very small.
And the lighting design of this keyboard is Six-color mixed light , the lighting on the keyboard is divided into six areas, each area has its own fixed light color. Simultaneous keyboard support Full key no punch 。
There are four types of switches on this keyboard: Customized green, black, tea, and red switches have a pressing life of 50 million times. Insert an official description here: the black switch is more suitable for playing games. The green switch has a stronger mechanical feel, and the typing sound is clear and crisp. The tea switch is an improved switch of the green switch, and the button sound is small. There are no detailed trigger force, total stroke and other parameters.
The one in my hand is a red switch model, and the overall feel is not bad. Apart from the problem of the big keys, Because the keycaps will be a little unstable after touching the bottom, the other keys will feel a bit fleshy, and the sound consistency is good, but not very crisp. But for a keyboard at this price point, the overall performance is pretty good.
When I disassembled this keyboard, I found that there were these buttons at the bottom of the keyboard. A layer of official unmarked sponge pad , It is indeed a pleasant surprise. There is a built-in layer of sound-absorbing cotton. It can be said that it supports customization, but it does not fully support customization. It is not recommended for players who buy it to disassemble it. There are quite a lot of screws (eight screws on the back).
And its own keycap is ABS two-color injection molding white keycaps , and a keycap that comes with the package is PBT's double-skin milk called "Haitian Yixia". (Personally, I prefer the pink keycap. The color of Haitian Yixia does not match the white top cover.)
It can be seen that the manufacturer wants to make something in every aspect of the keyboard, precisely because every aspect wants to be taken care of, but some additional problems have been highlighted in each aspect, and the overall situation is not very prominent, but Apart from the feel of the space bar, there is nothing too bad about it.
Price: 179 Free a mouse pad (Jingdong flagship store) The package with keycaps has not yet been launched.
