I have also used Rapoo's previous products, and I feel that they are taking the cost-effective route, but I have no impression on the appearance. However, with the launch of the Rapoo V700-8A multi-mode wireless gaming mechanical keyboard, I finally feel that Rapoo Cypress is also gradually catching up in design, who doesn't want a high-value cost-effective keyboard? unpack The size of the box is not small, and the main color of the outer packaging is gray, with blue edges on both sides, which still looks very exciting.

BTW, Rapoo has designed a whole set of wireless game peripherals, with the latest V+ technology, if all Rapoo devices are used, the game delay can be greatly reduced and the game experience can be improved.

At present, most of the mechanical keyboards on the market are connected by soldering tin, which is commonly known as "welding keyboard". The shaft body is welded on the PCB board. The advantage is that the connection is stable. That is: During the long-term use of this type of keyboard, if some shafts are damaged or you want to experience a different feel, you need to use tools such as electric soldering iron to disassemble the keyboard and then "de-solder and de-solder" the internal circuit board. It is not particularly friendly to most friends who have poor hands-on ability or feel that it is too troublesome to do it by themselves. However, the hot-swappable keyboard just solves the pain point of players wanting to "easily switch axes". This type of keyboard is more common in the customization circle at first; players who want to experience the feel of different axes can keep the keyboard disconnected In some cases, the shaft body can be directly inserted and replaced through the shaft puller, and there is no need to disassemble it, which is troublesome and time-consuming. However, compared with soldered keyboards, the connection of hot-swappable keyboards is relatively unstable. Poor contact may occur due to oxidation of copper sheets after frequent plugging and unplugging. Poor contact occurs when the body pins are bent, but for the latter, the player only needs to re-plug and straighten the shaft body pins to solve it. In terms of playability, the hot-swappable keyboard has to be said to be even better...

In the past few years, after being planted into the pit of mechanical keyboards by value friends, there are many keyboards that have been handled one after another, but I have never had the opportunity to experience the legendary "Durga Silver Switch" for so many years. Just after the new year, I need to buy another keyboard for company use. My request is very simple. The Durga silver switch is a must. To save money, the basic version is fine. The 104 standard keyboard is a bit too big for me. The company with 60% of the keys already has one, so look around and place an order. Durga's K320 matte version. This can be regarded as the fulfillment of a small wish many years ago. The space design of the packaging is relatively reasonable, which can not only effectively fix the keyboard, but also make partitions on the left and right sides of the keyboard to prevent the keyboard from being damaged by accidental bumps during the logistics process. The dust cover of the plastic case is well received and very practical. Although it is the basic version, the accessories are more sincere. The keyboard adopts the design of separating the keys and wires, so the Dujia manufacturer has prepared two 1.6-meter data cables, corresponding to the Type-c interface and the USB interface. . Wire key puller and finishing line are also necessary. Finally, there is a coaster produced using the material and technology of Dujia's specific model mouse pad. I feel that this thing should be used as a mouse pad for that kind of trackball mouse. The K320 model was launched in 2018. Since it adopts the classic 87-key male model version, it will not look outdated even after many years. The entire keyboard is made of frosted plastic, but on the basis of the frosted effect, silver-gray spray paint is applied to give the entire keyboard a metallic texture. The whole back of the keyboard gives people a sharp and angular feeling, and the design style is a bit tougher. The design of separated keys and wires is combined with the upper three-way outlet, five rubber feet and two-stage feet, which can realize three heights of keyboard placement. The data cable interface of Dujia K320 has a separate card slot, and it will be more seamless after the data cable is plugged in. The Type-c interface is commonplace now, but think about it, this is a model that has been on sale since 2018. At that time, Du Jia belonged to the peripheral manufacturers that adopted C-mount keyboards earlier. Personally, I prefer the 87-key layout, after all, in my daily life, there are relatively few areas involving the use of number keys. However, the retained F functional area and independent arrow keys are indeed used more frequently in daily work. The keycap adopts PBT two-color closed font, and the Fn level is also treated with a side engraving, which feels slightly frosted to the touch. Compared with ABS material, PBT material keycaps have better wear resistance and are less prone to oiling. The use of high-content PBT keycaps is also a product highlight of Dujia. In terms of the shaft, I chose the Cherry silver shaft that I have always wanted. Although there are more and more shafts to choose from, the influence of this "Dujia silver" was too great. After all, the popularity of the brand Dujia is also due to this silver. axis. After so many years, Durga’s K310 and K320 series are still equipped with Cherry shafts, which is one of the main reasons why I chose K320 this time. Regarding the trigger pressure of the silver switch, it is marked as 40cN on the product description. In my impression, the introduction of the silver switch should be the same as the 45cN of the red switch (if anyone understands this point, please answer it in the comment area) , compared with the red switch, the silver switch has a shorter trigger stroke. In the process of actual use, you don’t even need to press the keycap to the bottom. It can be triggered by lightly touching the keycap. You can even find that superficial touch when typing. a feeling of. For text workers, it is also more labor-saving. In theory, the silver switch is also suitable for playing games. The only thing to pay attention to is not to touch other buttons by mistake. K320 has different keycap heights depending on the version. The matte version I chose this time uses OEM keycaps, while other versions use original keycaps. The heights of the two are slightly different. If you have higher requirements for the height of the keycap, the matching difference between the two should also be taken into consideration when placing an order. From my shooting angle, it can be clearly seen that the satellite shaft of the big key has been moistened when it leaves the factory. The big keys are not very fleshy, and feel pretty good. During daily work, the keyboard is mainly used to switch software functions, and the frequency of tapping is not too high, which does not reflect the advantages of silver switches. But when switching to pure text input, the feel of the silver switch is immediately reflected, especially the individual keys are full of the ancestral spring sound of the Cherry family. This little feeling comes up immediately, absolutely authentic. Regarding the so-called cavity sound, since the K320 adopts a boat-shaped structure and has no internal filling, this design will have some more or less. This depends on personal acceptance, at least I didn't feel uncomfortable during my use. Of course, if you have strong hands-on ability, you can also modify this keyboard by yourself, but it is relatively difficult to upgrade, so it is not recommended for novice friends to take the initiative to try. The general keyboard is plug and play, and the functions are not so rich, but Dujia's Zeus driver software can automatically identify the type of peripherals after installation. Through the Zeus driver software, you can edit other keys on the keyboard except the FN key, including macro settings and so on. If you bought the RGB version of the model, this driver software can also set the lighting of the keyboard. As a keyboard launched in 2018, it is still sold on the market for so many years, which also shows that its product life cycle is relatively long and the market recognition is relatively high. Whether it is the workmanship, feel, or use experience of the keyboard, it was indeed unique in that era. Moreover, the K320 matt is also the cheapest option to buy Durga silver shafts. In the past few years, the keyboard circle has been too involuntary, and many functions have been delegated to the price range of 500 yuan, such as three-mode, RGB, hot-swappable switches, Gasket structure, etc. Years developed rapidly. Consumers have a lot of choices in this price range, but in this crazy wave, there are still countless dream fulfillers of Dujia Silver Axis, and I am one of them. As for what the friends think of the basic version of this Dujia K320, whether it is cheap and old or classic, or in the price range of about 500 yuan, do you think there is any better keyboard worth buying. We can communicate in the comment area, maybe your message is the target of my next keyboard.
