As the peripheral with the highest rate of daily office use, the keyboard is the most important tool for our productivity improvement. In addition, on the desktop with complicated office equipment, the interweaving of various wires is indeed a headache for users. How can productivity and desktop tidiness be combined into one? Wireless office is undoubtedly the best solution. Today I will introduce to you a Rapoo multi-mode wireless blade keyboard E9550G.

In terms of packaging, it still adopts the classic style of Rapoo. In the middle is the product rendering of this keyboard, and on both sides are some functions and parameter information of the keyboard.

The English LOGO of Rapoo is on the left, and its four major features are shown below: support for multi-device connection, 2.4G/Bluetooth connection, built-in rechargeable lithium battery, and floating chocolate button.

The model and name of this keyboard are introduced on the right, and the devices and system platforms that can be connected to it are briefly introduced below.

The back of the package introduces the 4 functional features of the keyboard in detail.

Other accessories include warranty card, manual, charging cable and USB receiver.

There is a switch button on the top of the keyboard, and there is a TYPE-C charging hole on the right side.

This keyboard supports Bluetooth 5.0/3.0/wireless 2.4G connection. By pressing and holding Fn+1/2/3 for more than three seconds, you can connect to 3 different Bluetooth devices respectively.

In addition, without using Bluetooth connection, we can also connect through the USB receiver that comes with the keyboard. Just plug the receiver into any USB port of the notebook/desktop computer, and turn on the keyboard switch to complete the connection.

This keyboard can support up to 3 Bluetooth devices + 1 2.4G device to connect at the same time, and can quickly switch between 4 devices, which is extremely efficient.

In addition, through the combination of Fn+F1~F12 keys, some common shortcut operations can be realized. The functions that can be realized are: back key, forward key, my home page, mailbox, multimedia player, play/pause, stop, previous song, next song, volume -, volume +, mute.

The keyboard keys adopt the classic scissors foot structure, a single key is like chocolate, thin and brittle. Independent key caps, selected silica gel particles, key center concave design, excellent touch, moderate key travel, quick rebound, and light percussion.

The bottom cover and frame are made of aluminum alloy, with frosted treatment, simple and elegant.

There are non-slip foot pads at the four corners and the middle to provide stable support.

There is also information about its model and parameters in the middle position.

The 110-key full-size key layout has an independent numeric keypad area, as well as other more functional keys, which greatly improves the practicability.

This keyboard also supports Windows/MAC OS dual systems. On some commonly used multi-function control keys, the identification codes of the two systems are marked, which is convenient for users to use quickly.

The reason why this keyboard is named "Blade", I think it is mainly because of the side view. The frosted aluminum alloy frame, the thinnest part is only XXmm, looks like a very sharp knife. The weight of the entire keyboard is only 456g, which is extremely thin and light.

When using multiple devices at the same time, enter the document editing interface on any device, just press Fn + the serial number of the corresponding device to switch to the device, which is very convenient.

In terms of feel, the functionality brought by the full keyboard is indeed very practical. The extremely short key travel ensures work efficiency and at the same time, the knocking sound is not loud. It is very suitable for both home and office use.

In terms of battery life, the Rapoo E9550G has a built-in 300mAh battery. Depending on the frequency of use and the scene, the battery life can reach about 60-96 hours.

The charging USB-C interface is located on the top of the keyboard, the red light is always on when charging, and the red light is off when fully charged.

If I use one word to describe the Rapoo E9550G, the first thing I will think of is: extremely thin and light. Slim and lightweight body, multi-mode wireless connection, crisp feel, and quiet office mode, it is very practical whether it is home or office. The full-size keyboard layout, coupled with multimedia control buttons, makes it very functional. Well, this time the evaluation will be introduced here for everyone, see you next time!

Miwu, as an enterprise under the Xiaomi ecological chain, is deeply involved in the field of computer peripherals and desktop office. The design language has always been adhering to the concise style of Xiaomi ecology. This simplicity is more in line with the aesthetics of contemporary people, and its temperament is in line with office work. The design series mainly focuses on the office market. There are not many product layouts in the game field that the Miwu mechanical keyboard focuses on. With the decline of the exaggerated design language of the e-sports style, the OEM style returns. Value to another level.

The ART series shoulders the most pioneering and exploratory role of the Miwu keyboard, so you can see the new design language, special key layout, and three-mode wireless connection and hot-swappable elements on the previously launched Z870 and Z680. It has become an established fact that domestic brands are crazy. This Z830 is such a keyboard that fully embraces customization. It is very positive in terms of appearance and shaft selection, especially the 83-key personality and key layout. Very unique and practical.

In fact, the Z830's fuselage is quite simple anyway, horizontally flat and vertically square, but the special and compact key layout and the red and white retro color scheme add a bit of charm. According to personality, I believe most players will not refuse. In addition, this Z830 also has a retro gray and white FC play, which is hard not to remind people of the little bully in childhood

Named after the number of keys, the Z830 uses a relatively unique 83-key key layout, which can be divided into 75% according to size.

In the compact key layout, there will be a distinction between the editing keys and directions, and the F area will also be separated so that the keyboard will not be too compact visually.

It should be noted that the Del key next to F12 is an important key in every scene. This is the position vacated by shortening the gap between the F areas, which is a bit hidden.

Visually, it is difficult not to be attracted by the white module on the top of the keyboard. This is not a decoration for visual balance, which will be introduced in detail later.

The NES Play color scheme adds a retro filter to the white and red, which is slightly yellowish and dark.

Caught a child attracted by the red keyboard

If I want to say that the design of this keyboard is the most heart-warming, I have to talk about the various characters on the keycaps. It can be inferred that this is a set of fonts independently designed to match the retro theme, using traditional dye-sublimation technology Compared with the two-color injection molding process, sublimation can achieve more refined and additional pattern effects, and is widely used in various theme keyboards.

This Z830 also gives full play to the advantages of the sublimation process. The font in the upper right corner is small and exquisite, and many interesting small patterns are inserted on individual keycaps, such as the progress bar on the Backspace keycap. Although it has no practical effect, it is But many such small details make the keyboard more distinctive.

Needless to say about the characteristics of the PBT material, the Z830 uses the original height keycap with four pointed corners, and the surface has a very fine grainy feel. The quality of this positioning is unquestionable. The only downside is that it cannot transmit light, which is not very friendly to light pollution lovers.

As for the choice of shaft, Z830 still chooses Jiadalong G yellow Pro self-lubricating shaft, which is the favorite of Miwu ART series. As a peripheral enthusiast, you must be familiar with this shaft. There is a wide range of applications in the field of production.

The G yellow switch adopts the classic appearance of the MX RGB switch, but to be honest, the combination of the yellow switch and the transparent cover is relatively mediocre at present when there are so many options for customized switches.

The children couldn't help but press the yellow axis

The hot-swappable structure adopted by the Z830 can easily remove the shaft body through the attached shaft puller

The disassembly of the shaft body requires tweezers as an aid

It can be seen that the inside of the G yellow Pro shaft adopts a regular length spring

This G yellow Pro shaft body is made of solid materials and has ultra-high mold precision. When it leaves the factory, both sides of the shaft center are lubricated with oil to ensure the smoothness of the keys on the shaft body, thereby ensuring the pressing feel. Previously, the turmoil of Cherry’s original axle handle was caused by the decline in the precision of the axle body mold, which caused the hand feel to change, which ruined the quality brand that it has established over the years. However, domestic axle bodies such as TTC, Kaihua, and Jiadalong are paying close attention to product quality and improving products. Positioning brings you a customized shaft with a higher bottle and better feel.

Before talking about the feel of the Miwu Z830, it is necessary to emphasize the Gaskte structure and the internal structure of the keyboard. As the most popular structure Gaskte in the key ring, its feel is still very different from the traditional steel plate structure, and the bottom is softer. Feedback Soft, suitable for use with linear shafts.

In addition, EVA sound-absorbing cotton and sound-absorbing bottom pad are added inside the Z830 fuselage to fill the gaps inside the keyboard and absorb the sound, so that the sound of the keys is cleaner and purer when the key is pressed. Factory comes with

With such a configuration, it is unreasonable to say that the feel of the Miwu Z830 is not good. The lubricated Jiadalong G Yellow PRO shaft is smooth and has no noise. The Gaskte structure gives a linear and soft touch. If you are using the original The transition from the factory switch to this switch body, whether it is the quality of a single button or the overall feel, has a very different experience.

The lighter touch and lower key sound make this keyboard more suitable for office use. The reasonable key layout is enough to be an office productivity tool. However, the shortened Ctrl and Alt keys on the right side of the space bar are not suitable for those who need to use a lot of combination keys. PS or Video clips are somewhat limited, which needs attention.

In terms of connection methods, Z830 is currently fully equipped, Bluetooth + 2.4G wireless + wired mode, which has gathered several current mainstream connection methods, summed up in one sentence as "I want them all".

If you have multiple devices, or have a portable need for the keyboard, the three-mode connection can handle it calmly, and even control multiple devices at the same time.

The keyboard switch and wireless/wired switching are all performed through physical switches. This must be well received, mainly because it greatly reduces the learning cost for users. Another thing worth integrating is the push-type switch on the outermost side. Press it to open it, and press it again to pop it up to close it. It reminds me of the repeater when I was a child. It is a very retro switch method, which coincides with the retro theme of the keyboard. .

In addition, there is a separate receiver storage compartment

The top module of the fuselage is also integrated with a connection mode indicator light

The Miwu Z830 has a built-in 4000mAh large battery, which is definitely the largest capacity among mechanical keyboards. The battery life can easily exceed 200 hours, and it can easily resolve battery anxiety.

This kind of battery life is under the condition of the keyboard light. If the light is turned on, the battery life will be greatly reduced. It is only recommended to turn on the light in wired mode.

It is also mentioned above that this Z830 has lights, and it is RGB lights. It was previously used as the standard configuration of gaming keyboards. The cool RGB lights have conquered countless gamers with cool lighting effects and changeable lighting combinations.

Although the current players are gradually returning to rationality and not being so fanatical about RGB lighting, it has become an option of "I can not use it, but you can't live without it". After all, it is quite interesting to watch the lights flowing on the keyboard in the dead of night.

The opaque PBT keycaps on the Z830 block most of the light, and Gaskte’s reflective effect is not very good. The lighting of this keyboard can only be described as mediocre, and the light only flows under the keycaps as the background. Light pollution lovers may be disappointed.

The actual experience of this Miwu Z830 is a keyboard with a high degree of completion, whether it is hardware configuration, user experience or feel adjustment, coupled with the initial price of 399, it is really delicious.

If you insist on finding faults, it may be that the special key layout is weaker in keycap compatibility. If you want to replace other keycaps, you need to do your homework in advance. . However, the quality of the keycaps that come with the Z830 is sufficient, and the super-hard PBT material basically prevents oiling.

The stability in the infinite mode has been very stable after a few days of game testing, because the time to get started is not long, and the battery that comes with the factory has not been used up yet, so the battery life test is not available.

The Jiadalong G yellow Pro shaft with the Gasket structure feels smooth and stable, and the hand feels very soft. After a long time of tapping, the fingers will not experience numbness or discomfort.

Due to the limited space, there are many functions of this keyboard that I have not had time to introduce in detail, such as being compatible with Mac systems, and it also comes with replacement keycaps for Apple systems. The PCB board is compatible with five-pin shafts, basically compatible with all types of shafts on the market.

Voiced paragraph axis

If you like the sound of typing on the keyboard without worrying about affecting others, then you can try the voiced paragraph switch, which not only sounds good but also feels good;

silent paragraph axis

If you want the keyboard to have touch feedback, but don’t like the crisp sound of the voiced paragraph, you can choose the silent paragraph axis, which has good touch pressure feedback and resistance, which can significantly improve the accuracy of input;

linear axis

For those who like a smooth experience, the linear axis is a good choice. This type of axis is straight up and down, and the trigger speed is fast, which can help you input faster.

fast axis

If you are a player who requires high keyboard feedback speed, then the fast switch will definitely become your first choice; the fast switch can significantly improve the player's operation speed by shortening the distance of the driving point and the key travel;

For example, the trigger distance of the cherry red switch is 2 mm, but the trigger distance of the silver switch (fast switch) is only 1.2 mm; this means that under the same conditions, the feedback speed of the fast switch is almost twice that of the standard switch;

silent shaft

As the name suggests, the main purpose of choosing a silent switch must be to eliminate noise; the feel of the silent switch will be rougher than that of the normal switch, and the pressing touch will be firmer and stickier, so unless you pay attention to the size of the knocking sound, it is generally not recommended to choose such shafts;

The above is the introduction to the types of keyboard switches. In fact, the choice of switches should be judged according to your own hobbies and usage habits.

It has been more than 20 years since I graduated, and I have been insisting on codewords every day. The input method shows that the number of codewords is about 10,000 per day, and the keyboard is changed almost every three months. Later, in order to make typing more comfortable, the mechanical keyboard was upgraded. Among the many brands, I like the products of Lofree Luofei's family the most.

Recently, I am using the Lofree Xinghe Xiaoqiao mechanical keyboard, and I would like to share my experience with netizens. To put it simply, this is a product with a beautiful appearance that men like to see. It is equipped with digital keys, and the keycaps can be freely replaced later. Next, let’s talk about the user experience in detail.

Whether it's an ordinary keyboard or a mechanical keyboard, the impression it gives is ugly. For this reason, mechanical keyboards have been available in various colors in recent years, but the appearance still cannot tear off the ordinary labels.

After getting the Lofree Xinghe Xiaoqiao keyboard, the author, an old man, was still very surprised. The pattern on the outer packaging is very delicate, a bit like a starry sky.

When you open the package, you can see the keyboard, as well as the warranty card, instruction manual and a card explaining the idea of ​​the Lofree Xinghe Xiaoqiao keyboard, which is very considerate.

In the accessory box, there is a USB cable and 3 AAA batteries. I have to say that the manufacturer is very conscientious and has prepared batteries for consumers.

The wireless receiver is designed in the corner of the battery compartment. When not in use, it can be placed directly in the battery compartment to avoid loss. This detail design is quite good.

More intimately, the connecting cable between the keyboard and the computer is 1.5 meters long. Even if the distance between the computer and the keyboard is relatively far, 1.5 meters is enough, because the cable of an ordinary keyboard is only 1.2 meters.

We can see the words Tian Danlu on the outer packaging box. The Lofree Luofei Xinghe Xiaoqiao mechanical keyboard is a product jointly created by cutting-edge artists Tian Danlu and Lofree Luofei. It is characterized by rich colors.

It has to be said that Tian Danlu's grasp of color is very good. Although the main body of the keyboard has a variety of colors, it does not give people a messy feeling. The design that gradually transitions from dark blue and purple to light pink and light blue creates a galaxy atmosphere. Seeing the keyboard reminds us of the vast and beautiful galaxy.

The keyboard adopts a 100-key design and retains the number keys, which is very friendly to consumers who often write or make forms. The keycap is made of PBT sublimation material, and the PBT content is as high as 85%. The dye-sublimation process locks the pattern firmly on the keycap, and also increases the wear resistance of the keycap. The characters on the keycap will not be worn off or oily after long-term use.

Before the author used an ordinary keyboard, part of the characters on the keycaps would be worn off in three months, and oily skin would appear. The Lofree Xinghe Xiaoqiao keyboard has been used for more than half a month, and there is no hair oil.

Moreover, the keycaps have a variety of different color combinations, which improves the appearance of the product and increases the appearance recognition of the keyboard. Jiadalong's G red Pro switch body supports full-key hot-swappable, and consumers can replace their favorite keycaps.

Of course, the Lofree Xinghe Xiaoqiao keyboard comes standard with a USB-C interface, which can be connected to the computer with a cable. On the sidelines of the interface is a mode switching switch, which can switch between Bluetooth, wireless, and wired modes.

Since more than 10,000 characters are usually input every day, the requirements for the comfort of the keyboard are more stringent. Judging from the experience of more than half a month, the Lofree Xinghe Xiaoqiao mechanical keyboard is very comfortable to use, and it is the keyboard I am most satisfied with so far.

The reason why I am very satisfied is that in terms of details, Lofree has made the keyboard experience to the extreme. Specifically, in order to ensure the comfort of typing, the side of the Lofree Xinghe Xiaoqiao keyboard is designed with an obvious 9° slight tilting arc, raised to a height of 54.5mm, which is more ergonomic.

If you use the keyboard for a long time to type, the height of 54.5mm and the raised arc will not make your hands too tired. This detail is a detail that many manufacturers ignore.

In addition, the keyboard uses iron powder, and a silicone sandwich pad is added between the positioning board and the PCB board to eliminate the cavity sound. The rebound of each key is also more appropriate, the sound when typing is relatively soft, and typing late at night will not affect the rest of the family, which is very friendly.

In terms of power supply, the Lofree Xinghe Xiaoqiao keyboard does not have a built-in battery, and uses three AAA batteries. Judging from the experience of more than half a month, it is not as expensive as it is said on the Internet, and it should be no problem for 3-4 months of normal use.

Summary: Among the keyboard products I have used in recent years, I am most satisfied with the performance of Lofree Xinghe Xiaoqiao. The appearance is beautiful even for men. It is commendable that the arc design and height reduce hand fatigue. The downside is that the design of 3 AAA batteries is not very friendly to heavy users like me.

Keychron recently launched the new Q12 customized mechanical keyboard, which adopts a unique layout and the numeric keypad is placed on the left. It is now officially on sale, with a starting price of 838 yuan.

The Q12 adopts a 96% layout, and the left-handed design of the numeric keypad is suitable for left-handed users, while leaving more room for the mouse.
