Hello everyone~

Recently, Dareu’s mechanical keyboard can be said to be updated and optimized with great effort. From the previous version of the plug-in shaft of the A series, it was upgraded to a silicone layer, and then directly upgraded to a version with a gasket structure and different key positions and different shell materials. Crazy updates can be described as overwhelming. Today, let us take a look at what has been upgraded to the Dareu A87pro mechanical keyboard, which has not only upgraded the overall structure, but also upgraded the internal gasket at the same time, and how it has been upgraded.

Dareu A series comes standard with anti-layer cover (really practical for those who love their peripherals), supplementary keycaps, shaft pullers and keyboard cables. Among the two attached cards, the most practical one is the strip-shaped instruction card.

From the appearance point of view, Dareu A87pro seems to be no different from the previous A87 series mechanical keyboard except for the keycap color matching.

From the side, you can see that the details of the A87pro have changed a little. First, the part on the left side of the keyboard close to the foot support has an additional button for switching the lighting mode (the three-mode version is a connection mode switching key), and the right side of the keyboard. There is a blocked groove (this position of the three-mode version is used to store the 2.4G receiver).

One of the biggest features of the A87 is the magnetic top cover, and because the A87pro is upgraded to a gasket structure, the top cover and the base are designed with a tight buckle, and it is really difficult to remove.

Because Dareu’s recent gasket structure mechanical keyboard has a screw-fixed limit column to prevent displacement of the gasket inside the plug-in shaft, so we have to pull out the shaft and remove the fixing screws after removing the keycap. I have to say that the hot-swapping of the shaft seat is really a good news for Xiaobai and the handicapped party, and it is really convenient to change the shaft.

I believe those with sharp eyes have discovered that the colors of several switches on the keyboard seem to be a little different. In addition to the sky switch V3 with small keys, there is also a light blue switch body with a core. In fact, the Dareu A87 Pro has also upgraded the large key position this time. The large key uses the blue core sky switch V3 with a pressure of 45gf, which is a little heavier than the 40gf sky switch V3. Perhaps it is to satisfy users who need large keys, and to balance the feel of the satellite shaft and the main shaft.

After removing the screws, we can take out the PC and the silicone layer. The silicone layer and the lower cover are tightly fitted, and there are many snaps on the edge of the silicone layer to fix the PC positioning plate, so you can see the PC The fixed and silicone layers are glued together.

On the A98 and A84pro, there is no obvious locking between the PC fixed and the silicone layer, and the edge closure is all made of the silicone sleeve. On the other hand, A87pro designs the edge of the silicone layer into a fence structure, and the fence on the edge can directly clamp the PC positioning board.

And this time, the silicone layer with a hardness of 25duro and a thickness of 3.5mm is used, which is a little harder than the previous gasket-structure mechanical keyboards in terms of hardness.

After taking it apart, we can understand more clearly what the structure of the gasket is. The internal gaskets (from top to bottom) are PC positioning board, silicone layer, PCB circuit board, and silicone bottom pad, and the inner tank is fixed by the upper and lower covers. Since the internal gaskets are all made of soft and tough material structure, and they all have a certain thickness, the Gasket structure of Dareu will be more realistically decavity compared with many mass-produced steel fixed gaskets.

Due to the increased hardness of the silicone layer, the fence-type silicone layer also increases the tightness between the base and the base. The keys at different positions will feel more uniform, and compared with the previous gasket-structured mechanical keyboards, the keys sink slightly. Of course, many people like softer ones, and the steel plate gaskets with a cavity and the previous models of Dareu will be softer.

In general, Dareu really has something in the field of mechanical keyboards. Except for the conventional configurations that are directly given to the top configuration (RGB, PBT keycaps, etc.), the structure and materials will be constantly updated. This time, the interior of the gasket structure The upgrade adjustment also provides different options in terms of feel, and the 87key classic configuration can be used on the gasket to provide users with more choices. The only fly in the ointment is that the driver update is too slow. Although it does not affect the use, there is still progress. Space.

Before I knew it, I became a keyboard guy...

First of all, I am very happy, and I am very grateful to Dareu for providing this 84PRO, so that I can experience this outstanding "aluminum lump" gasket mechanical keyboard. After using it for a while, I want to share my experience with you. The content is as neutral as possible, but there will be subjective elements in it, please forgive me.

First of all, the pink color of this keyboard immediately caught my attention. It can be said that this is the most pink keyboard I have ever seen~ It is a small-sized keyboard with 84 keys in a compact layout. The outer shell and frame of the model are integrally formed from a single piece of aluminum. It also has a gasket structure and the hot-swappable feature of the shaft body, and supports three-mode connections, and it is unambiguous in terms of professionalism.

Moreover, it also has an RGB backlight + unique pickup light bar that is enough to make a macho fall!

Next, let’s take a look at this keyboard~

The packaging box of this keyboard is still very luxurious. After all, the aluminum inside is a heavyweight role. Whether it is the packaging texture or wrapping, it is worthy of the price of the product~

After opening, the contents inside are as shown above;

It includes a keyboard, a set of black and white replacement keycaps, a two-in-one tool for pulling out the shaft and keycaps, and an A2C charging data cable.

Not much, all useful~

In addition, there is a dust-proof plastic cover outside the lens, which can cover the keyboard when not in daily use. But I think it's useless to me~

The shell and structure of this keyboard are entirely made of aluminum alloy. It can be said that it is processed by CNC from a whole piece of aluminum, and the cost is high.

The surface is anodized, and the color presents a pink texture like rose gold, which still looks very advanced~

The edges are chamfered, hard but not sharp.

And there is a "diamond cut" edge on the inside, the highlight is very beautiful~

come

The design on the back is extremely cool, the printed text and graphic elements make this keyboard full of technological texture~

The slope of the bottom case + the protruding black part makes the keyboard have a certain inclination, and it has a good typing experience without the support pad.

The top is designed with a 2.4G USB receiver storage slot, a C-port charging port, a pairing switch, a pickup light bar switch, and a mode switch.

Dareu 84PRO uses three-color keycaps. The different functional areas of the keyboard and special keys are matched by peach pink, white, and black. The matching is very harmonious, reasonable and has a color contrast effect.

The material of each keycap is two-color injection molding PBT, and the closed characters are directly formed by injection molding without fading. The surface is frosted, which is not only comfortable to touch, but also has a high content of PBT material, and it is not easy to oil up after long-term use.

In addition, the axis body is the sky axis V3 self-developed by Dareu and manufactured by Huanuo. The main material is blue and transparent, which can well let the backlight below shine through.

In addition, the color and feel of the shafts in different regions are different, and they should belong to different shafts to distinguish the feel~

By the way, as shown in the picture above, this keyboard supports hot-swapping, so I can remove the switch body with confidence.

The weight of the entire keyboard is as high as 1.5kg, and it is very, very stable on the table. Although the keyboard casing is a heavy and hard material, the actual feel of the keys is quite springy.

Because the interior is a gasket structure, the silicone gasket gives the keyboard motherboard enough cushioning, and with the soft PC positioning plate, the sound of the whole keyboard becomes very small, and there is no metal sound or cavity sound. And it's bouncy, neither too rigid nor too soft, and feels good~

The trigger height of the switch body of this keyboard is quite suitable. It is neither the slight paragraph feeling of the brown switch nor the ultra-short trigger stroke of the red switch. It is true that it is not easy to accidentally touch it. Stimulation, but after a long time, this kind of feel is less likely to be tired, and it does not disturb the people~

If it is said to choose the green switch when entering the pit, and the red switch when the fever is gone, I think the sky switch of Dareu is also a switch that is worth aftertaste after the fever is gone.

Yes, there is a pressable metal knob on the upper right corner of this keyboard, through which you can easily adjust the system volume, it is very convenient to use~ and it feels great~

RGB+ pick-up light bar, the atmosphere is full~ Which hunk can refuse? ?

Due to the fact that the keys are opaque, the RGB lights can only pass through the gaps in the keycaps~ a little regrettable~

And the sound pick-up light bar can move according to the ambient sound, you can think about the visualization effect of playing music in Windows Media Player ~ (exposure age)

The keyboard has a large built-in 4000mAh battery, which lasts up to one month. But in the case of turning on RGB, it must not be so long~

But this keyboard can also be used for charging when it is plugged in, so there is no battery anxiety~

In Bluetooth mode, it does not interfere with my Bluetooth mouse, mobile hard disk and WIFI, and there is no perceivable delay in daily use. Even in the process of playing games, such as Call of Duty and Fortnite, you can play smoothly without stress, and the delay is negligible. Of course, the effect of using 2.4G will be better.

This is a high-end mechanical keyboard with full appearance, excellent feel, and absolutely thick materials. It brings a lively light effect to the boring desktop and becomes a great embellishment. It also makes typing a joy. When you have nothing to do, you just want to press it and type something~ you say , can it also stimulate the inspiration for creation?

If you like it, you can go and see~

When I was in school, my goal was to become a "white-collar worker", because that is an elegant name for a decent worker. After entering this complicated society, I realized that "community animal" is the most appropriate adjective. In the Internet age, there is no such thing as "9 to 5". 996 is a more realistic portrayal of work. After gradually becoming the backbone of the family with "the old and the young", the time spent in the office is not the longest but longer .

Passing through the busy traffic, saying goodbye to the feasting and feasting, and walking into the company facing the rising sun every day, began a day of "Internet" life. If the daily work is to fight monsters and upgrade, then it is particularly important to buy some handy equipment. In the dungeon, a good-looking and easy-to-use mechanical keyboard is especially important. Release some stress. Recently, with the attitude of giving it a try, I bought a K310 of the DURGOD TAURUS series to test the waters. I never expected that the appearance and experience exceeded expectations.

Taurus means reliability, stability and elegance, which is most suitable for social animals. The blue and black color packaging box is quiet and high-end. As an entry-level mechanical keyboard, there are not many brands willing to work hard on the packaging.

If it is nothing unusual to send a key puller, then it is very kind to have two data cable cables (C-B, C-C) as standard, and even a cable tie to solve the length of the cable is very detailed.

Now there are more and more different shafts on the market, but based on my personal experience, if you want to be safe, you should choose [CHERRY] honestly. This thing is still high-tech. Durga is a brand that keeps the bottom line. The whole series uses cherry shafts directly supplied by the original German factory, which are absolutely high-quality in terms of touch and response speed.

K310 is unavoidably the first mechanical keyboard for many people, so here I will talk about how to choose the most suitable one among the various colors of switches. If you like violent aesthetics, go for the black switch. This switch is the toughest. If you are not afraid of noise and like crackling, then go for the green switch or the brown switch. There is not much difference between the two. Choose the color you like; if you are more restrained, you like it. If it is relatively quiet and comfortable, then choose the red switch. I hope to add a word "more" and there is also a silent red switch. As for the silver switch, which is the advantage of Cherry, it is generally a little more expensive than other switches. The biggest feature is that it feels refreshing. It is neat, and if girls want to save effort or play more games and want to operate faster, then the silver axis is strongly recommended.

I am used to using the green switch. Although it is very decompressive and cool, it is really disturbing. It is not convenient for colleagues to knock on the break time, so I bought a red switch this time to try to avoid being scolded a few times, haha.

In addition to the shaft body, the keycap is also very important. Whether it is the touch or the appearance, the material is more important. The K310 uses a high content of PBT material, which performs well in terms of wear and resistance, and is relatively more oil-resistant. Make sure it stays looking good even if the pan is a little longer.

Dujia's painting process looks good. Blue is actually a "dangerous" color. If you are not careful, it will be very LOW and cheap. But as a blue lover, you can only gamble on "light fog". Blue", I was really worried before receiving the goods, and to be honest, it really exceeded expectations after I got it. How should I put it, that kind of vision is very elegant and beautiful!

Let’s talk about the operating experience again. From the side, you can see that this keyboard uses OEM height stepped keycaps, which are fully compatible with the aesthetics and feel. Many people are arguing about the advantages of OEM height keycaps and original factory height keycaps. I personally think there is no comparison. This depends on the choice of the brand. After all, different manufacturers have different compatibility requirements and design languages.

In terms of overall experience, the layout of the keys is still very reasonable. There is no conflict among the 104 keys. Whether it is a cousin or a game expert, any number of combination keys can be easily triggered.

Pull in the "lens" and look at the F keys on the top row. Different commonly used function logos are printed on the side, making the office process easier and more convenient.

In addition to the simple key combination design, Dujia’s keyboard can also edit other keys except Fn through its Zeus driver software. Macro settings are really a blessing for gamers. It can solve various complex key combination operations. God's way is one step faster than others.

What can bring people back to the good memories of the "computer class" is the classic simple indicator light design. Let me introduce the meanings of each, from left to right: Number Lock indicator light, Caps Lock indicator light, Scroll Lock indicator light (scroll lock, scrolling pages more conveniently), lock key (Fn+ Left WIN) indicator light (win key is locked to prevent accidental touch pop-up window during the game), driver software custom key layout configuration call (Fn+F12) indicator light.

【Two-stage foot support design】Three different use angles can be realized to meet the needs of more users and scenarios.

The rotating shaft here is actually the detail that distinguishes the quality of the keyboard. It is recommended that you can compare and compare it yourself if you have the conditions.

[Three-way wire slot design] Keep the desktop clean and simple, whether your power supply port is on the left or right side, it can be hidden and arranged, and the socket is also designed with a fool-proof slot to make the wire power supply more stable.

A simple design, although it will increase the cost of the merchant, but the aesthetic level has really taken a big step.

If the wire is too long, this strap will come in handy, it's really the details.

The German original cherry switch ensures the experience, the high-quality PBT keycap guarantees the life, and the Duga Zeus drive realizes the expansion, and then it is matched with colors such as high-quality spraying technology, large key position of the satellite switch adjusted by professional technicians, OEM The presentation of details such as height stepped keycaps, two-stage foot support design, three-way wire groove design on the base, and key wire separation design has undoubtedly created a high-quality mechanical keyboard with both appearance and experience. It can be said that this The K310, even as a social animal, has decent and excellent equipment.

In summary,

Yufu R series, as the vanguard of Dachang Fude's attack on the mechanical keyboard market, can be said to be the pioneer of "buy the switch and get the keyboard free". The brand "Royal Axe" was established, but it also linked Royal Axe with cost performance, which is very similar to the relationship between Xiaomi and cost performance.

The R series has brought considerable sales and high brand awareness to Royal Axe, allowing many consumers to experience the "noble" TTC shaft at a lower price. All of this is so similar to how Xiaomi let everyone experience the Snapdragon!

In the following Y series, the texture of the kit has been greatly improved, and the GasKet structure that has become popular this year has also been explored. Although Yufu still uses screws to fix the inner tank and the bottom case. The Y series has successfully caught up with the popularity of TTC Kuaiyin V2. It has to be said that the sales bonus brought about by the "axis fever" has helped the Yuaxe brand grow rapidly.

Looking at the R series and Y series, they are firmly bound together with TTC's gold powder and Kuaiyin, and with affordable prices and good workmanship, they have won the favor of many consumers. How exaggerated the popularity of the R series is, many people hear gold powder, hey, this axis is good, I want this, I want the royal axe, it’s so cheap, many noobs are like this!

The Royal Axe L series rushed into the "cost-effective" market developed by the R series and Y series, and rushed to the high end. The price of the L98 reached the initial price of 899.

1. The strategy of Royal Axe L series to impact high-end

1. Shaft body heat - just because it is the shaft

The heat wave of gold powder and quick silver allowed Royal Axe to fully enjoy the dividends brought by the heat of the shaft body, and also tied Royal Axe to TTC warships. The L series uses TTC’s Giant Heart RGB shaft, and a single TTC official The retail price has reached 7 yuan, which is really "noble" TTC. Although the L series hits the high-end, and the price also touches the high-end, but compared with competitors, it is still "cost-effective".

2. Screen heat - more perfect color screen

This year's sudden wave of screens has further stimulated the popularity of key circles. However, the screens before the L series were still black and white. The Royal Axe L series brought the color screen to the keyboard, and achieved the most complete experience, which can display time, battery, and connection mode. , system, and replacement animation, etc., and when we switch lighting effects and other usage scenarios, they can all be displayed on the screen. The degree of perfection of Yufu's screen experience is unmatched by other companies.

3. Structure heat - practice 0.3 "two and a half" GasKet structures

The Royal Axe L series finally uses the Gasket structure, which is very popular this year, and the PC positioning plate is slotted horizontally. Under the double-layer silicone filling, you can still feel obvious deformation, and thanks to the double-layer silicone With the support of the phone, the consistency of the feel and the sense of hearing is very good.

2. High-end experience

1. High-end beauty experience

Part of the Y series can be seen on the L series, and finally abandoned the ancestral super-large three-mode switch that was criticized by many people, and moved it to the left side of the keyboard. ah. The L series uses a lot of splicing design elements as a whole, and four splicing frames are added up, down, left, and right. The complexity of the kit mold is very considerable. Friends who want to disassemble the machine should not think about it.

2. High-end lighting effect experience

The lighting effect of the L series benefits from the LED light strip on the lower edge and the blessing of the RGB axis light guide mirror in the heart of the giant. The overall lighting effect is very cool. After all, the blessing of RGB to the game is very metaphysical.

3. High-end input experience

The front height of the keyboard of the L series is very low, like a low-lying sports car, and a good input experience can be obtained without a hand rest. The experience of using the Giant Heart RGB switch body is very good. It is still a quick-trigger silver-like switch, but its appearance, structure, and experience are all better than those of the Quicksilver V2. Coupled with the blessing of the ASA height ball cap, the comprehensive input experience is very good.

4. High-end driven by three-mode connection

9

At the end of 2022, many keyboards support connecting drivers in 2.4G mode, but the Royal Axe L series actually supports connecting drivers in Bluetooth mode.

3. The beginning and regret of the high-end road

No one is perfect, and there is no perfect mass-produced keyboard at present. Even the L series trainees who have practiced for 0.3 years and a half are still like this. The obvious shortcoming is that it takes too long to import the "just because" animation. Optimize drive. The Royal Axe L series has started its high-end practice through more expensive shafts, better designs, better experience, and perfect color screens. I hope that Royal Axe will practice better and more comprehensively in the future. "Just because" mechanical keyboard that can sing, dance, rap, and basketball!

In the past year, new products in the keyboard circle have also emerged in an endless stream. No, Rapoo has launched the 299 Rapoo V700DIY hot-swappable RGB backlit gaming mechanical keyboard, which supports hot-swappable full keys. It is also Rapoo’s first 104-key full-size keyboard. Customized keyboard, with Rapoo self-developed KA-12 linear fast silver switch/spring white switch, comes with factory run, more playability and convenience.

To say that the biggest change in the key ring is undoubtedly the popularization of customization. In the environment where the mechanical keyboard is quite mature and the price is getting more and more affordable, the homogeneity of the mechanical keyboard is getting more and more serious. Now only The highly customized attributes of the customized keyboard can bring players a different sense of freshness. Let's talk about this Pennefather V700DIY mechanical keyboard product that I started with.

Rapoo V700DIY is very novel in design, with 104 programmable keys and no red keys. PBT two-color keycaps, separate key line design, the aluminum alloy upper cover is suspended to present a simple and narrow frame, the tough dorsal fin shape on the right, the floating ergonomic keycap sorting, the selected silver aluminum alloy material upper cover and pure white keys Cap, the typical temperament emerges spontaneously.

The keyboard adopts PBT two-color injection molding process. The material is solid and kind, with fine-grained touch and even light transmission. The keyboard only uses a separate key line design with a detachable storage line of 1.5m or more, which is easy to carry. The gold-plated USB interface has anti-oxidation and corrosion resistance, keeps transmission stable for a long time, and has a long service life.

Surprisingly, there are 5 special function multimedia buttons in the upper right corner. From left to right, there are mode switch button, light switch button, scroll wheel mode switch button, mute button and the scroll wheel on the far right. It is absolutely convenient to adjust the volume by scrolling.

Rapoo V700DIY mechanical keyboard, the key travel is very short, the response is fast, the touch is comfortable, the keys are full of mechanical feeling, the keyboard is relatively compact, the space is greatly saved, the initial experience is very good, the keycaps that are not easy to slip, not easy to accidentally touch . The appearance is simple and the lighting effect is amazing. After all, Rapoo is an old brand, and the quality of workmanship is guaranteed. After hot-swapping, you are not afraid of a certain key failure.

Rapoo's independent hot-swappable linear fast silver axis, calibration factory moist satellite axis, equipped with Penpoo's independent hot-swappable linear fast silver axis mechanical switch, suitable for most five-pin hot-swappable shafts on the market, and can be changed at will. Feel the impact of different touch. The short key travel triggers the signal faster, the rebound is strong and fast, and the service life of the single axis is 50 million times. Hot-swappable linear fast silver switch triggers sensitive rebound and strong fast silver switch, sensitive rebound, steady attack, 4mm total stroke, 1.3±0.5mm trigger stroke, 45±10gf trigger pressure.

Axis body composition: PVC axis + PC high transparent upper cover + stainless steel spring + alloy copper sheet + high density nylon base. Flick the white axis, faster and lighter, and trigger quickly. Surprisingly, it also supports hot-swappable, hot-swappable metal shaft seats that can be customized and replaced for 10,000 times. The hot-swappable metal shaft seat is stable and firm. The hot-swappable metal shaft seat is used, which is anti-oxidation, strain-resistant, stable and firm contact, and has a service life of 10,000 times of plugging and unplugging, which is durable.

104-key full-size key layout, USB connection can realize key conflict-free, ensure that every operation can respond accurately, and experience a smooth gaming experience. Coupled with the RGB backlight system, the game mode can be set independently by one key. The key trigger is sensitive and the rebound is strong, with a strong touch feel, and the sound when typing the keyboard is relatively quiet, not only suitable for gaming scenes, but also very good for office use suitable.

The adjustment function is also very simple. Through the combination of Fn + F1~F12, the 12 multimedia shortcut functions of the Win system can quickly switch between multimedia playback, volume adjustment, mail and other functions. Independent programming, macro settings and lighting effect settings can also be performed. Fn + Win key realizes the opening/locking of the Win key, which prevents the screen from being cut out due to accidental touch of the Win key during fierce games, and is suitable for both office work and entertainment.

Write at the end:

Customized keyboards have become the mainstream, and Rapoo V700DIY is definitely rare as a 299 hot-swappable mechanical keyboard. The key is the use of RGB lighting effects. The silver axis body is comprehensive and suitable for games. It is also suitable for office work. I have to say that the design of Rapoo is very good.

However, currently it only supports wired mode, which is still a little lacking. I am still looking forward to the next upgrade to add 2.4G and Bluetooth mode, so that it will be a more perfect customized keyboard.
