I believe everyone is familiar with the keyboard. We also use the keyboard in many places in our daily work and life. Nowadays, the pace of life is getting faster and faster. Online office and home office are also commonplace, and work efficiency has increased. But there are also some problems along with it, such as wrist pain caused by long-term use of the keyboard. I have suffered from this kind of pain. I recently saw such a keyboard X-BOWS Lite ergonomic mechanical keyboard on the Internet. , the editor started with it with a curious attitude. After using it for a period of time, I found that it can really relieve wrist fatigue and even pain, so I will introduce it to you today.

Not much to say, the editor here directly omits the unpacking link. The keyboard here is different from the square and square look of the keyboard we often see. As shown in the picture above, in fact, when the editor first saw it When it comes to keyboards of this shape, is this special-shaped design for eyeballs or what? It’s the same thing, but when you actually use it, you will find that such a design is not unreasonable.

The above picture shows the standard data cable and key taker of the keyboard, so it should not be difficult to find that this keyboard adopts a professional-grade player key and wire separation design. The wire is a pure copper core conductor with nylon braided shielding on the outside. , On the one hand, this kind of wire has strong toughness, on the other hand, it has good shielding effect and good anti-interference effect. The connection mode of USB Type-c is the same as that of a traditional keyboard. Plug and play.

Let's take a look at the details. Here we mainly talk about the workmanship of the keys on the keyboard. You must know that the keys of this keyboard adopt a secondary oxidation process, which achieves a contrast of the same color highlight and matte texture. This feeling can be felt as soon as you get started. Well typing is no longer a task but a pleasure.

The important thing is, what do we feel when we look at the direction of the keys of this keyboard? It looks a bit messy at first, but if you look carefully, you will find that the direction of the keys is actually designed according to the most comfortable posture of the human hand, which is in line with the angle of the human wrist and fingers. When you put your hands on this keyboard, it will not have the pressure on the wrist caused by the traditional keyboard because of the layout. This is what we call the ergonomic design. After all, it is easy to use. It is the truth to use it smoothly.

After talking about the highlight of ergonomic design, let’s look at another highlight of this keyboard, that is, the mechanical keys. The pleasure brought by the mechanical keyboard to the user is beyond the reach of traditional keyboards. We know that mechanical keyboards can be divided into different types according to their characteristics. There are four kinds of switches: black, red, tea, and green. I like the sense of paragraph and the crispness of the sound brought by the keyboard during typing. The key is that the pressure is also moderate, so I chose the green switch. When in use, there is actually a matte backlight under the keycaps, so the keyboard is not so monotonous.

Let’s look at the back of the keyboard. This keyboard has feet like traditional keyboards, but the detail is that there are non-slip feet on both sides of the keyboard feet, so the keyboard can be stored stably during use.

Since it is for comfortable use, of course it has to be matched, so the editor also chose the palm rest as a set. This palm rest has a honeycomb design from the bottom surface, but the actual effect it brings is stable. Supporting the palm can also provide a soft space for the palm, so the editor also recommends that if you choose this keyboard, then don’t give up the palm rest, because it is really relaxing to use.

The above editor mentioned that this keyboard supports backlight. In fact, it is not just a simple backlight, but supports 16 equivalent mode adjustments. You can choose the one you like to use, whether it is pleasant or soothing. Or you can turn off the backlight if you don't like it.

Summary: This X-BOWS Lite ergonomic mechanical keyboard can be said to have made a bold attempt in the layout of the keyboard, but this attempt has been confirmed in the actual experience, and its innovation has given us a new way of experience , mechanical keyboard + ergonomic design + adjustable backlight in 16, I think this kind of experience is really perfect, what do you think?

With the improvement of players' demand for individualization, many manufacturers have followed the trend and launched many keyboard products with a lot of selling points in the past two years. With the emergence of competing products, there are leading brands relying on brand advantages, and many domestic upstart brands that take the ultimate cost-effective stacking style have emerged. These products all have sincerity-level pricing that is visible to the naked eye.

Today I will bring such a stacking work: CL98 from the Click lab brand. I hope that this unboxing from the user's perspective can give some comparison references to friends who are interested in buying such products.

CL98 has been iterated to 3.0, which is known as the full body version. Based on the technology and experience of the previous generation of products, this time the product will be more mature.

Click lab CL98 is currently available on Taobao. Users can choose a single kit (without shaft and keycap 419), TTC gold powder V2 (699), CL custom shaft (TTC OEM 599), etc. TTC has been out of the circle since gold powder isometric bodies After that, relying on the good quality, stable performance and word-of-mouth of its own products, it was well received in the customization circle, and its feel quality is also relatively credible.

In terms of accessories, in addition to the regular manual, C-mount threaded rubber cable, and key puller, it also comes with a transparent dust cover, additional key caps, and replacement shafts*4.

Click lab CL98 adopts a practical and relatively compact 98-arrangement key design. The compact layout makes the keyboard more refined and outstanding in appearance compared with 104 and other full-size keyboards. White, as a fashionable evergreen color, also has a very good appearance when matched with black and white themed keycaps.

The 98 configuration removes the editing area, retains the direction area and the number area, retains the uppercase and lowercase and number indicators, and the maximum bar light used to display the connection and lighting effect status. It is also very recognizable with the nameplate decoration of the top brand logon.

The two indicator lights are close to the keys, very creative, intuitive and easy to understand.

The left and right win buttons adopt a coverable design, and you can choose the normal arrangement or the front teeth (friendly to the game scene). The adjustment of the win on the right and the direction area is very reasonable and harmonious for me. 98 and 65 arrangement are also my personal favorites. I like the practical arrangement of the keyboard.

The brass-colored inscription on the top is very decorative. Although it is a plastic shell, it enhances the texture.

I don’t know if the 2.4g storage compartment on the back is a case or a design reason. The magnetic sheet attached to the back cover fell off, which made the back cover unable to close, which is a bit regrettable.

The four toggle switches respectively control MIC, WIN switching, power supply, Bluetooth switch, and 2.4G mode. I personally prefer physical switches, which are easy to use and have a strong sense of confirmation in functions with low frequency of use. The area is a constraint, and it is more flexible and slender when you need to switch.

The details at the edge turning are still in place, and there is no low-level flaw in the eyes.

In terms of the switch body, the click lab switch (cl) manufactured by TTC has not been released by the official. The cherry red switch is convenient for everyone to understand that it has a linear feel. Since the expiration of the cherry patent, the mechanical keyboard switch has also been available in a variety of versions. This CL axis is composed of a PC transparent upper cover with a POM axis, a nylon lower cover and a long spring. The trigger pressure of about 42g is also the most popular force range of the current linear axis, and the friction triggered by pressing is optimized. And spring sound and shake feeling. The friction and spring sound and shaking feeling triggered by pressing are handled well.

The consistency and smoothness of pressing are unexpectedly high. Visually, it has been lubricated by the factory, and there are not many shafts that have been touched. However, compared with the price of TTC gold powder, I personally feel that the cl shaft may be more cost-effective.

In addition, the PCB and POM positioning board are filled with PORON sandwich cotton, ixpe shaft underpad, and silicone bottom pad. The investment in these customized kit matching solutions brings the percussion cavity sound and shock feeling that mass-produced keyboards have. Common problems have been greatly eliminated. And thanks to the separation of the Gasket small board and the PCB and the help of the filler, the pressing under the leaf spring structure also has a certain soft elastic feeling, and the overall feel feedback is quite good.

Hot-swapping is also a standard configuration of many keyboards nowadays. For novice users, it can greatly improve the DIY and playability of the product, and lower the threshold for customization. It is also very simple to change the shaft. Use the shaft puller to press the shaft Gently pry the lid open. With the included key puller, you can easily replace the diy shaft body. It is also compatible with ordinary tripod and pentapod axes, as long as it is an MX-like axis. The shaft body adopts LED and transparent shaft cover, and the SMD LED at the bottom of the upper light position design is also relatively clear and obvious, and the keycap design has a tight gap, and the light is not dazzling.

The keycap is PBT two-color injection molding, with clear characters and elegant style, moderate thickness, fine and smooth surface, and dry and delicate touch. Supplements and even seven-character carriage returns are compatible with other keycaps.

In terms of connection, the Click lab CL98 three-mode wireless hot-swappable mechanical keyboard supports Bluetooth and 2.4G wireless connections. Its anti-interference and stability performed well during the experience period. The Bluetooth connection typing test of the computer/mobile phone was carried out respectively. During the experience process, there was basically no sense of delay. Although the stability needs to be verified for a long time, the field office The use of input requirements can be fully satisfied. And it can match three devices at the same time, and the delay of the second cut is almost impossible to check, which is very useful for multi-device users.

The battery life of the keyboard is also good. The official 3000mAh lithium battery does not provide reference data, but according to the battery life experience of several wireless keyboards with similar capacity I have, it is estimated that the Bluetooth mode/2.4G mode can give almost 200 days. / About 150 days plus the keyboard itself is not very mobile and can be supplemented by plugging in according to the power indicator at any time and supports wireless Qi charging. In theory, there is almost no constraint and anxiety of wireless use.

The compact layout makes the keyboard more refined and outstanding in appearance compared with full-size keyboards such as 104, and it is only a little longer than the 65 layout, while the reservation of the direction area and the number area makes it more practical and practical than other small layouts. It is convenient, and because it occupies a small space on the desktop, it is very friendly to students and cost-effective parties.

Judging from the experience of several days, this is a relatively mature cost-effective stacking product launched by emerging manufacturers after several iterations. The black and white color matching and styling have a very versatile appearance. PBT keycaps, the most popular and well-recognized gasket structure scheme, and TTC customized shafts bring quite good feel feedback. Compared with the mass-produced competing products at similar prices, it is still very cost-effective, of course, there are some in the experience. Defects, such as the falling off of the bottom storage compartment cover and the detailed experience of the toggle switch, have room for improvement, but in general, the impression and experience this time are quite good. Combined with the price of a certain treasure 599 and the evaluation feedback of the hands-on group friends, it is quite worth recommending to practical users.

For boys, tossing various digital products is probably very interesting! As more and more digital devices are acquired, such as Bluetooth headsets, sound test lights, game controllers, mice, keyboards, etc., for Uncle V, digital products are naturally very popular, and he will never get bored. In contrast, I have a special love for mechanical keyboards. Nowadays, there are more and more customizations of mechanical keyboards, both in terms of function and appearance. I have been using a 104-key keyboard before, and there are also 87-key keyboards, but I personally prefer a full-featured keyboard with number keys. Recently, I bought a high-end brand HELLO GANSS HS108T White Feather keyboard under GANSS, and I have experienced it for a while, so I will share it with you below.

Compared with some simple packaging on the market, HELLO GANSS HS108T adopts very colorful colors and interspersed text design, which makes the overall look very artistic and energetic. After taking out the main body of the keyboard, you can also see a lot of accessories, including manuals, keyboard cables, a pair of AA batteries, Type-c adapters, key pullers, shaft pullers, supplementary keycaps, and transparent keyboard covers.

The appearance is convenient. This time I started with the white feather color, and there are other colors to choose from. From the overall design of the keyboard, the color combination of orange + light blue + white feels very small and fresh. As a standard keyboard with 108 keys, it has all keys without punching, and there are four function keys in the upper right corner: calculator, mute, volume down, and volume up. With these shortcut function keys, it is more convenient to use . It retains the number key area on the right side, which is very friendly to accountants. In addition, it uses non-transparent two-color PBT keycaps, and the surface has a very fine matte texture, which can prevent sliding during typing.

There is an English "HELLO GANSS" brand LOGO on the top side of the keyboard, and on its right side is a three-mode switch, which are: Bluetooth 5.1 wireless, wired mode, and 2.4G wireless. In Bluetooth mode, it can support connecting up to 5 Bluetooth devices, which can be switched by combining shortcut keys, FN+Q / W / E / R / T, which is more practical.

The details on the back of HELLO GANSS HS108T are well designed. It is a standard 3-slot outlet design. There are 4 non-slip feet at the bottom and two built-in foldable feet. The matching silicone feet have great stability. Viewed from the side, the keyboard has its own angle, which is actually sufficient when the feet are not used. This support foot supports three height adjustments. After opening the support foot, you can get a better typing angle. If you use it with a wrist rest, you will feel better. Whether it is typing or gaming, it is very easy.

This free Type-C adapter is worth mentioning, because motherboards with C ports are also very popular now, and most notebooks now have their own C ports. After plugging in the adapter, the keyboard cable is the C-C cable. So it can be easily plugged into a laptop or tablet to use the keyboard!

Switches are the soul of mechanical keyboards. HELLO GANSS HS108T has: TTC switches, Jiadalong switches and Cherry switches. I have been using the red switch before, but this time I chose Jiadalong’s G silver PRO switch body. Its total stroke is: 3.4mm MAX, the action stroke is: 1.2±0.3mm, the trigger pressure: 45g±15gf, and the life span can reach 8000 Ten thousand times, the design of the satellite shaft is lubricated at the factory, the feel is well adjusted, smooth and crisp, because I have never used it before, I am still looking forward to it.

As shown in the picture above, this is the real body of the switch after the keycap is removed. From the feel, this switch rebounds quickly and has a crisp sound. It is a very representative switch in mechanical keyboards. body. In addition, the shaft body can be replaced. For friends who like DIY, they can replace the shaft body they like, so that they can get a different use experience.

Support RGB lighting effect, HELLO GANSS HS108T supports 16.8 million color lighting effect display in wired mode, because it is not a light-transmitting keycap, so the lighting effect is less dazzling than the light-transmitting keycap, and it looks more atmospheric at night . You can quickly call the budget lighting effect through the Fn+1-8 keys, and you can also adjust the display effect of the lighting effect through the combination of buttons. The playability is still good.

In terms of games, the experience of HELLO GANSS HS108T has to be said to be surprising. In my spare time, I open the LOL game and use it to play large-scale online games. Thanks to the three connection methods, both wireless and wired are smooth. Play hacks with your teammates, and you will never be complained about pressing the wrong button again. I believe many friends have encountered it. If one is not paying attention, the skill press becomes a flash? Well, embarrassing indeed!

Summary: On the whole, HELLO GANSS HS108T is a mechanical keyboard with both appearance and interior, which is very practical for office work or games. This multi-mode mechanical keyboard can also support full-key without punching in the game state. As a full-featured keyboard, it retains the number key area, has PBT keycaps, RGB backlight, supports hot swapping, and is powered by AA dry batteries. It also supports three-mode connection, and has a long battery life in a wireless state. In addition to being connected to a computer, it can also be connected to a notebook, mobile phone, tablet and other devices, free to connect and use without worry.

The upper and lower covers of the keyboard are buckled and fixed, and high-toughness silicone is used between the inside of the keyboard and the bottom case, and the Gasket structure is optimized again.

Taking advantage of Double 11, the author started another pair of IQUNIX's new color theme - "Thin Rattan", OG80 keyboard. Recently, IQUNIX has become more and more expected and appreciated in terms of keyboard themes. For example, the thin rattan theme this time is also at the forefront of popularity, using the recently very popular thin rattan color: a purple color, in purple Into some gray, intertwined with mystery and elegance.

The outer packaging of the product is also the classic IQUNIX classic black box + girdle design, and the meaning of LAVANDIN and lavender purple is also very close.

The OG80 keyboard series adopts a translucent shell + 80% layout with 83 keys. The small numeric keypad is completely removed, making the keyboard compact and exquisite, suitable for desktops with little space. The aesthetics and simplicity of the keyboard are very strong. The author did not choose the RGB version this time, but the version without lighting effect. Because this thin vine color is beautiful and elegant enough, cool lighting is no longer necessary.

First look at the keyboard accessories, you can see that the IQUNIX OG80 thin rattan accessories are the same as usual, full of sincerity, including MAC keyboard replacement keycaps, 2-in-1 key puller + shaft puller, telescopic cleaning brush, TYPE-C data cable , interface converter.

The shell is made of translucent matte material, and you can see the various mechanical structures inside the keyboard. The texture is very thick and does not have the texture of plastic.

The keyboard as a whole adopts the slanted key distribution in the F area, with a large inclination angle, giving it the feeling of a retro typewriter, especially the function area, which is at the top of the keyboard, and the inclination angle is even higher.

The shaft of the disc is the TTC fast silver shaft, which is very popular at present. The TTC fast silver shaft is very smooth to use. It gives people the feeling that the trigger is fast, and the rebound is also very fast, and it is straight up and down, very Smoothness is very different from the axis body that pursues a sense of paragraphs, and it is not easy to cause false triggers.

The keyboards all adopt hot-swappable PCB design, and are compatible with TTC and Cherry at the same time. With the help of the shaft puller, you can replace different shafts as you like, which greatly improves the follow-up playability of the keyboard. I think the current Kuaiyin switch It's already a very, very good choice.

The keycaps are made of PBT material, with a little frosting on the touch, durable and wear-resistant, and will not oil. The characters on the keyboard are opaque because they are printed. It is compatible with PC and MAC, and the keycaps can be flexibly replaced according to the needs of use.

On the upper right corner of the keyboard is the metal nameplate of IQUNIX and the model number of OG80

On the top of the keyboard, there is a magnetic storage compartment for storing the 2.4G receiver. Below is a USB-C port for wired mode and charging. Due to the lower latency of the wired mode, it is also the first choice for gamers. For the author who likes to use across devices, the three-mode function of the keyboard is very practical. The keyboard supports three connection modes, wired, 2.4G, and Bluetooth 5.1. In Bluetooth mode, multiple devices can also be paired. For example, mobile phones can also be easily connected.

There is an indicator light in the upper left corner, which can realize the reminder of the function. For example, if Bluetooth is currently used, the indicator light will be blue. There is also a white light, which means that the caps lock is on and so on.

On the back of the keyboard, the semi-transparent effect is more significant, and the structure of the circuit board can be seen. On the top is the nameplate of the product, which is filled with information of various products. In the middle is a small switch, which is used to control the wired mode and wireless mode. .

Through the keyboard, you can see the 2 batteries built into the keyboard. Each battery pack is 2000mAh, which can provide a total of 4000mAh of power, and there is no pressure on battery life. In the mode of low-power Bluetooth connection, the battery life can reach 3000 hours.
