What Is How to Clean a Mechanical Keyboard?

Hello everyone, I am a keyboard tossing enthusiast~ Zhao Huayu.

Since I started to enter the pit of mechanical keyboards last year, I have really tossed a lot of keyboards during this time. It has to be said that the domestic brand is really YYDS, especially the various very distinctive shafts, fancy hanging cherry shafts that used to sit firmly on the altar.

This article shares with you a recently acquired mechanical keyboard, the latest K610W series from Duga. This keyboard follows the steady and elegant color matching style of the Duga series, and the mainstream three-mode connection, hot-swappable switch body/keycap, and automatic adaptation of Windows/MAC OS dual systems favored by multi-platform users are also included. Overall, it is a very distinctive mass-produced mechanical keyboard.

The K610W series has two colors, Fog Blue/Dark Green, which are officially named Echo/Island respectively. The names of the two color schemes are full of literature and art, especially the isolated island. My first impression reminds me of Hemingway's classic work "For Whom the Bell Tolls", which comes from the handed down work of the British poet John Donne.

no man is an island

", the original text is as follows:

No one is an island,
alone in the sea;
Everyone is like a little piece of clay,
connected to the entire continent.
If a piece of earth is washed away by the sea,
Europe would lose a corner,
It is like a promontory,
As well as your friends and yourself.
whoever dies,
Parts of me are dying,
Because I am included in the concept of human being.
therefore,
To ask for whom the bell tolls,
death knell tolls for you
The moral of this poem is not death, but to explain human existence from different angles. At the beginning of the poem, each person is like a small piece of soil, forming the entire land, and each person does not exist independently. At the same time, it emphasizes the importance of each person or each thing. Without a part, it is not complete, which is used as a metaphor The importance of the keyboard to players is almost a whole.

▼Dark green outer carton, double-layer packaging, printed brand, model and keyboard renderings on the surface, the overall color scheme is calm and restrained, with a unique temperament.

▼Look directly at the family portrait. In addition to the keyboard body, accessories include data cables, straps, macOS replacement keycaps X 3, shaft pullers, key pullers, C to A adapters, and instructions.

▼Durga K610W adopts a classic full-size 104-key layout, and the digital area is still very convenient for daily use, especially for financial personnel. However, I am used to a compact layout, and this full-size keyboard takes up too much space on the desktop. When it comes to the layout, Dujia is still too rigid. Taking this series as an example, although there are small-sized 87-key and 61-key layouts, it does not have my favorite 100-key layout.

▼The color matching of Dujia has always been well-known in the key circle, and the color matching of the isolated island is no exception. Dark gray + dark green constitute the main color of the keyboard, the large white keys are used as color embellishments, and the border of the keyboard is pure dark green. There is not much fancy design language, but it gives people a calm and restrained texture.

▼The upper right corner of the keyboard is the indicator light. This area is covered with high-transparency acrylic sheet, and the bottom is decorated with diagonal lines. Not to mention, it is rare to see such a design. At first glance, it always looks like a piece of glass. There is a desire to dig it out.

▼Although the shell is a traditional ship shell, a lot of effort has been put into the details. The double-layer frame forms a sandwich wrap, and the layered chamfering design makes the keyboard not look too monotonous, and the overall recognition is very high.

▼The LOGO in the lower right corner is the universal design of Durga.

▼The power switch and the type-c line interface are located on the upper right of the keyboard. This layout is not considered mainstream at present, but I personally like this wiring method, which looks relatively simple.

▼The four corners on the back of the keyboard are equipped with non-slip pads. The obvious trapezoidal structure naturally forms a certain slope when placed flat. If the slope is not enough, you can dial out the supporting feet. The two-stage height can adapt to different input requirements.

▼ There is a hidden storage compartment on the back of the fuselage. The 2.4G receiver lies in this position safely. Compared with the mainstream magnetic storage, it is slightly outdated, but the security of storage is also an advantage.

▼Durga K610W supports three-mode connection (wired/Bluetooth/2.4G), but it does not provide physical switching buttons, but switches through shortcut keys. Convenience is convenience, but the physical switch is more intuitive to use.

▼Original height PBT keycaps, taking into account the feel and durability. The front characters adopt a two-color closed-mouth process. There is nothing to worry about in terms of quality control. After all, it is also a major keyboard manufacturer. There is nothing to be picky about the clarity of fonts, workmanship and craftsmanship of keycaps. I will enter the series with my eyes closed.

▼Look at the details of the workmanship on the back of the keycap, especially the large key position, and look at the dense ribs, so you don't have to worry about the hidden danger of bending and deformation. From the design of this rib alone, Dujia K610W is the most exaggerated on hand.

▼The satellite shaft design adopted by the large key position, no matter whether it is the middle part or the left and right sides, there is no tilting phenomenon. It is very balanced and smooth, and the balance is well adjusted.

▼ After removing the keycap, you can see that there is a layer of silicone pad between the metal positioning plate of the keyboard and the PCB below, which can effectively improve the percussion feel and reduce the cavity sound.

▼Axis body, Durga K610W finally got the hang of it. This time, I didn’t hold on to the cherry, and instead cooperated with Jiadalong to launch a customized axis body-crystal axis. This axis is made on the Jiadalong CAP axis. Improvement, including red switch, silent red switch, brown switch and silver switch

▼The one I have on hand is a linear silver shaft, which focuses on speed. The trigger stroke is only 1.2 mm, and the full stroke is only 3.4mm. It feels fast to trigger, fast in response, low in pressure, and very smooth overall. The rebound follows the hand, playing games or Codewords are fine.

▼In terms of noise, the sound of the linear axis is not too loud. With the cushioning of the silicone pad and sound-absorbing cotton, the overall noise is relatively restrained. Even if it is used in a quiet place, it will not feel noisy. I have recorded a video, and you can refer to it when knocking the sound of.

▼The keyboard shaft body can be hot-swapped and replaced. Look at the removed silver shaft, black transparent shell, silver shaft, and Jiadalong's LOGO on the surface, the appearance is really good.

▼Although the appearance is too retro, thanks to the large keyboard size, the built-in battery is also super powerful. The official data is that it can be used for 8 hours a day, the 2.4g wireless battery life can reach 200 days, and the Bluetooth connection is as high as 360 days. Basically, you don't have to worry about power issues.

Durga K610W is a very good mechanical keyboard.

Highly marked shape design, mainstream three-mode connection, hot-swappable shaft/keycap, excellent quality control, dual-system self-adaptation

Wait, it can basically meet the needs of most users, especially the low-key and calm dark green is really beautiful, and the feel of the customized silver shaft is also remarkable. The biggest flaw may be that there is no RGB lighting effect, but to be honest, the lighting effect is very useful when displaying it. As the main keyboard, few people will keep it on all the time. It is too wasteful of electricity, and the lighting effect is really not in line with this. The style of the keyboard.

I am

Zhao Huayu

, an idler who likes to share the joys of life.

Writing is not easy, and code words are laborious. If my article can be recognized by you, I hope you can help me to like, bookmark, and leave a message below. Your interaction is the motivation for me to write. Thanks to all the friends who read here, see you in the next article.

The brand Greenlink is probably familiar to everyone. It covers a wide range of digital peripherals, ranging from small data cable charging heads to large private clouds in hard disk storage. I have also bought a lot of its products one after another. The overall feeling to me is that it is exquisite, the texture is quite in place, and the performance is also good. Recently, I saw that it has also started to enter the keyboard field. The newly launched Fun+ features a short axis and looks good. I directly entered one. Here I will briefly share it with you.

▼Fun+ currently has two color schemes, girls’ hearts are bursting

【Dreamland】

and fresh and concise

【Sea Paradise】

. My model is obviously an island paradise, with dark blue packaging and a keyboard sketch printed on the outer box. The brand logo and keyboard model are printed on the front of the package, which is clear at a glance.

▼The packaging box is opened on the side and fixed by magnetic suction. The first thing you see when you open the packaging box is this product declaration "

Go Fun Surf

", the cartoon pattern on the top cover draws the mind to the summer beach in a second, corresponding to the relaxed and casual style of the keyboard positioning.

▼Accessories include keyboard body, data cable, manual, warranty card, dust cover, Mac replacement keycap, and key puller.

▼The color scheme of the keyboard is obviously inspired by the waves and beaches, and the color layering from top to bottom is extremely obvious. Black rocks, dark blue and light blue correspond to sea water of different depths, and then there are gray-white beaches and jumping white waves. The overall design sense is quite sufficient.

▼The keyboard layout is the 84-key that is very popular recently. In addition to the conventional number input and the large F area, the right side retains independent direction keys and function keys. The overall size is 313 X 124 X 25mm. The compact body looks elegant when placed on the desktop, and it will not take up too much desktop space.

▼The keycap adopts the design of outer circle and inner square, with obvious curve transition around, slightly concave in the middle, wide contact area between fingertips and keycap, and the percussion feel is good. It is said that this keycap is officially defined as "

mushroom

"Let me be a little bit reluctant, I think it is more appropriate to call it pebbles, and it is more in line with the keyboard theme.

▼The keyboard is

suspension design

, this is a common design for low-axis keyboards. If a ship shell is used, the keycap is not as high as the frame. The surface of the bottom plate has been frosted, and it feels delicate. The frame also has a circular arc curve, and the overall spirit is relatively strong.

▼From this angle, it can be found that the keycap has an obvious height drop.

▼PGDN This key is very interesting. The official set it as a separate emoticon key. Press it to pop up emoticons, emoticons, and various common symbols. Although this design is not high-tech, it is quite convenient to use, especially It's time to chat.

▼The keyboard shaft body is selected

tall and short tea shaft

, the short switch is characterized by short key travel, fast feedback, and low pressure, and the brown switch is characterized by silence, so the Fun+ keyboard can hardly hear any sound, and the fast response feature is quite suitable for both office work and games .

▼Fun+ keyboard support

Wired/Bluetooth two connection modes

, the interface is

Type-C

, which is also the mainstream wireless keyboard solution. The keyboard can be connected to 4 devices at the same time, switch by FN + number keys. In terms of compatibility, Win, Android, ios, and Mac can all be perfectly adapted. If the main device is Apple, you can also replace the spare MAC keycaps for a more perfect effect.

▼In terms of backlight, Greenlink Fun+ supports

4 brightness adjustments and 15 backlight effects

, you can choose to adjust according to your preferences, and the night environment is not only convenient for input but also adjusts the atmosphere. One more thing, this keyboard is compact overall, so the power consumption rate is relatively low, and it can achieve 180 hours of battery life without turning on the backlight, basically achieving a monthly charge.

▼A glance at the back of the keyboard, the four foot pads and the mode and power switch are all clear at a glance. Here I want to make a complaint, the font is too light when the mode is switched, and I can't read it clearly after reading it for a long time.

▼Because it is an ultra-thin keyboard, Greenlink Fun+ does not use folding foot pads, but instead uses two kinds of foot pads with different heights to make the keyboard form an inclination angle, and cooperate with keycaps of different heights to make the fingers and the keyboard in a more comfortable position Enter an angle. The non-slip material on the top of the foot pad has a firm grip when placed, and there is no shifting phenomenon when inputting.

First of all, I want to say that if you want to buy a keyboard with a strong mechanical feel, Green Link Fun+ is not very suitable for you. So, who is this keyboard suitable for?

Take a look at the features of the keyboard. In terms of appearance, the lovely temperament overflowing from the inside to the outside, the 84-key compact arrangement is light and portable, multi-device compatibility and wired/Bluetooth connection methods, all of which are doomed to make this keyboard for desktop simplicity and mobile users. Imagine using it When a tablet phone or a laptop is connected to an external keyboard, do you want to put a huge keyboard to destroy the overall coordination? Moreover, the keyboard itself is super small, and there is no pressure to carry it around. For friends who regard simplicity and elegance as the standard, this keyboard undoubtedly has its own value.

So, here comes the conclusion, if you don’t have a heavy demand for keyboard input (text creators), and you pay more attention to the characteristics of portability, simplicity, and wireless device adaptation, Greenlink Fun+ is undoubtedly a good choice. Of course, if you are a keyboard collector with no emotions like me, don't even think about it, just enter it!

Hello everyone, I am Teacher Lin, and we meet again.

As far as the keyboard is concerned, I am quite familiar with it. No matter what kind of keyboard or axis, I will start to experience it. In the end, there are three thousand beauties in the harem, but I only favor one person. That’s right, although the keyboard I have There are many, but the one I like the most and the one I use every day is this Durga Fusion.

Due to the special size of Dujia's Fusion, which is equipped with a 68 keyboard, I specially went to a certain treasure to customize a green sandalwood solid wood palm rest for his exclusive use. However, since it is a customized product, this palm rest is not only for Fusion. No other keyboard configurations can be used. It can be seen that I like this product.

Not long ago, I decided to buy another one as a notebook in my study. I use two computers every day. There is no one at home. I basically use the computer to code in the living room. When the children are at home, I will choose to code in the study. So I need to get another one, this is the man, I have seven identical shirts, I have two identical keyboards.

Not long ago, Durga released a new configuration, Durga GK90 wired gaming keyboard, as a fan of Durga, you must start to experience it, and the most important point is that I really don’t have many keyboards with 104 configurations on hand. Get one.

Durga GK90 wired gaming keyboard adopts an optical shaft body with a service life of 8000W times, and is equipped with a double-sided PBT light-transmitting keyboard with 104 keys. The group programming configuration file is very sufficient in configuration, and the appearance is also rainy, and the light hole system is greatly enhanced.

Let’s first take a look at the special features of this axis configured in the GK90 series. The triggering principle of the optical axis and the mechanical axis will not be repeated here. GK90 adopts Jiadalong's customized linear optical axis, triggered by the speed of light, with a full stroke of 4.0MM, and a service life of about 8000W times, which is basically a relatively high level, which can give users a lighter feel and faster response speed.

Since it supports RGB backlight, this time GK90 is also equipped with a light-transmitting keyboard. The light-transmitting PBT material is rare and valuable. The full-size design with 104 arrays is suitable for most people’s usage habits. The PBT material can also ensure the keyboard for a long time. Use no oil. At the same time, the light-transmitting keyboard can also show the RGB backlight effect of the keyboard very well.

Considering the needs of multimedia, GK90 is also thoughtfully equipped with a volume control button. This button is made of aluminum alloy, which is very smooth to use. It is more convenient to adjust the volume when listening to songs or playing games when coding. .

A separate RGB light strip is also designed on the left side of GK90. This light strip supports independent adjustment, which can bring cool lighting performance and details to the desktop. You can pay attention to it.

In addition to the independently adjustable RGB backlight on the side, the side of the GK90 is also surrounded by RGB light strips, which is more effective at night. Don’t you like this effect?

In addition to the keycaps and RGB colors, the maximum brightness of the GK90 is also equipped with a bowl holder made of ice silk fabric. For daily games or codewords, how important is it to have a comfortable bowl holder? This bowl holder The memory foam design is adopted on the inside, and the cooling material is used on the surface, which can raise the height of our wrist when using the keyboard, keep the wrist relaxed and work more comfortably.

It is a pity that the GK90 does not adopt the mainstream TYPEC key-wire separation design. Whether it is placed in the usual place or transferred to the use area, you need to bring a long cable. What is more gratifying is that the connection cable of the GK90 uses braided wire, and the quality is still good.

If you just type normally, it is actually a waste for this GK90. With the software that supports DZE, you can customize the macro button function. At the same time, this GK90 also supports the Nebula Symphony driver module, adding more Playability.

Durga GK90 supports DURGOG ZEUS ENGINE. Users can customize the keys through software, FN combination key customization, and key settings. At the same time, the keyboard supports online upgrades, and supports saving four sets of onboard memory configuration files. Users can set multiple sets of their own. customary keyboard configuration.

For the GK90, my biggest feeling is the comfort of the bowl holder. The bowl holder made of ice silk fabric is especially useful in summer, and it adopts a magnetic adsorption design, which can perfectly integrate the original keyboard into one.

I have to say that the light-transmitting keyboard is indeed a blessing for the RGB performance of the keyboard. Now, the PBT keyboards of almost all companies are opaque and limited by the cost. Therefore, with the addition of this light-transmitting keycap, the backlight of the GK90 It looks especially good at night.

In terms of backlight performance, Durga GK90 supports a variety of lighting effects, and the common monochrome and RGB performances are very good. Let me show you the actual effect. Does it look much better than non-translucent keycaps?

Have you adjusted the different lighting effects? I can play for a long time when coding at night, hahaha. That's the beauty of RGB, isn't it?

Let me show you the effect of using it at night. Is it very good-looking? Fortunately, you don’t have to worry about running out of electricity and charging. They are all wired designs. If you like lighting, you can start with this Dujia GK90, and you will never be disappointed.

In fact, after the release of Dujia GK90, I personally think that Dujia has started to take the route of e-sports. In fact, there are not many theme designs in the design of Dujia. The previous colors are gray and white as the main color. Ga Fusion is also one of the keyboards I mainly use. Although it does not have a backlight, I like it.

If you have a preference for games, you can consider starting with this GK90, which supports four sets of onboards and can easily adapt to your different needs. .

The downside is that Durga GK90 has sacrificed some convenience for cost, such as the separation of keys and wires, such as wireless support, etc. I have to say that it is a little regrettable, but this GK90 is still worth buying at this price.

I'm Teacher Lin, see you next time.

Botanical Botanical Garden R2

2021.7

Zen philosophy in life is all in the forest

This keycap is a green keycap designed by the designer "Hazzy". In terms of inspiration, the designer was inspired by the plants around the workplace and immersed in this natural and peaceful environment, so he designed this keycap. This keycap brings the botanical garden to the keyboard.

Color matching:

Lime green, aqua, sand, and white color combinations often create a natural, fresh, and calming vibe, especially when they are used to represent botanical designs.

The combination of gray green and light green can convey a sense of vitality, which is closely related to the growth and reproduction of plants, while also making people feel relaxed and comfortable. This combination can make the botanical design look more harmonious, because the hues of these colors are similar, without strong contrast and conflict. White brings a modern, minimalist feel.

The overall combination creates a natural, comfortable, warm and balanced atmosphere.

Personality section:

The personality part of R2 this time corresponds to several different plants, not only the succulents and potted plants in the office, but also the lotus and bamboo by the water.

Metal personality:

Table mat:

Rendering display:

Keycap information:

Material: ABS material

Height: original factory height

Process: secondary molding keycap

Personal Rating: 7—8

As an excellent work in the green series, this botanical garden has already made a name for itself relying on R1. This time, R2 still continues the classic design, and at the same time adds a sand base, and the choice and level of matching are wider. In addition to matching the green shell, there are many interesting collocations.

The dark wood-colored keyboard shell can form a sharp contrast with the botanical keycaps, creating a strong texture, stable and calm atmosphere.

The transparent keyboard case accentuates the gray-green keycaps for a light, fresh effect.

Silver and milky white are also safe choices.

Buying advice:

If you can buy it at the original price, I think it is still worth buying. The green keycaps are all-match.

Hello everyone, this is TANK.

Last year, mass-produced mechanical keyboards also gradually embraced the Alice configuration. Keychron, Feker, and akko all released Alice ergonomic keyboards. I have experience with these three brands of Alice keyboards. Among them, Keychron released the most Alice configurations, and Altuotuo has Q8 and Q10. , plastic single mold also has cheap V8 and V10.

Today I will mainly share Keychron’s Q10, which is an Alice keyboard with an F zone. By the way, I will talk to you about whether the Alice keyboard can really help you correct your typing fingering and improve the efficiency of codewords. After reading it, I hope it can help you choose Buy Alice with a series of mechanical keyboards, and I will talk about the differences between these Alice with a series of keyboards in detail later.

Before going into details, let me first introduce the parameters of the Q10 keyboard.

1. Keyboard parameters

Reference price: 848 yuan

Arrangement: 75%Alice arrangement

Color: night purple (kit), black, blue, gray

Keycaps: PBT material OSA keycaps

Shaft body: Jiadalong G green, red, tea

Connection mode: wired single-mode hot plug

Others: gasket, knob, macro button, split space

This article is typed by Keychron Q10 dark purple color + Jiadalong CJ axis.

Here is a point to explain the color matching. The Q10 dark purple kit in my hand is limited to sale, and there are only 500 pieces in total. This dark purple is the same dark purple kit that was released last year when the iPhone 14 Pro was released.

2. Description of keyboard accessories

This Q10 was actually released in October last year, but because I didn’t find a suitable shaft and keycap to match (in fact, I’m lazy), so I delayed until this year to assemble it. After the assembly, I played with one This experience evaluation article will be issued in about a month.

By this year, the official upgrade package and palm rest corresponding to Q10 are available, so I also completely disassembled the keyboard liner and added the upgrade package.

If you don’t have much demand for the overall feel and surplus of the keyboard, Keychron’s kit is more suitable for beginners in customization than other custom kits. You can use it after buying a finished product or a kit and plugging it directly into the switch body.

The switch body is Jiadalong CJ switch, which is blue and purple in line with the theme color of this kit. The keycap is the purple transparent keycap of lelelab. The overall fit is quite good. You can continue to read to see the finished product picture.

3. Keyboard usage and assembly reference

3.1 Basic Introduction of Keyboard

If you buy a finished product, you will get such an Alice keyboard that you can use directly.

Put the supporting Alice and use it with the palm rest, and the overall fit is relatively close to the lower frame of the keyboard.

The overall layout of the keyboard is 75%. Compared with Q8, there are more F areas. At the same time, the knob is designed on the left side and 5 macro keys are added. Users can customize the keys they want to use. Here I put numbers 1~5 is because I don't have a personalized keycap to use.

The overall dark purple color of the keyboard is slightly different in brightness under different lights, and it looks good together with the colorful bear shaft puller.

The metal knob in the upper left corner has a good texture. Adjusting the knob from the right to the left is to facilitate users to control the knob with their left hand in games or other scenes where the right hand needs to hold the mouse.

Q10 put the type-c interface and win/mac switching switch in the middle of the keyboard

When switching between upper and lower case, the Caps Lock button will light up white.

Q10 follows Keychron's consistent tradition and perfectly adapts to the Mac system. In addition to the buttons, it supports all function buttons in the F area, so I finally brought the Q10 to the office to connect to the Mac.

As for fingering, because my typing fingering is relatively correct, and I have used Q8 before, it is relatively easy to get started. The double B design is more in line with the typing habits of most domestic users, but if you are very used to typing Input G with the right hand, then the Alice arrangement will be a little uncomfortable to use at first.

If you are curious about whether the Q10 configured by Alice can be used to play games, you may wish to continue reading.

After all, with the F area, and there are 5 macro buttons on the left side, it is more convenient for some games to do shortcut buttons.

3.2 Upgrade Package Assembly Instructions

Consistent with the previous Q series, there is no tutorial on the back of an aluminum tuo. There are four dark purple silicone bottom pads. The anode process on the back is easier to leave fingerprints, and the disassembly is relatively simple. Just remove the eight upper and lower screws. .

After unscrewing the screws, you can see that there is a space for the knob on the left side of the bottom case, and a space for the main control connection part in the middle.

After removing the bottom case, you can see that there is a layer of green barley paper on the back of the PCB, which is similar to the effect of masking paper. It acts as a bottom cotton and makes the sound of the shaft body more hifi. The sound is too subjective and varies from person to person. Personally, I don't really like the design of masking paper/highland barley paper, but Keychron's Q series after Q8 all have this filling design.

After tearing off the masking paper, unplug the wiring between the power cord port and the main control, and unscrew the fixing screws on the back of the PCB to separate the positioning board from the PCB. The sandwich cotton that comes with the factory is made of EVA material, and we will upgrade it The sandwich cotton made of Poron material in the bag is replaced.

The shaft seat and PCB satellite shaft are still made by Jiadalong. There is no pad under the shaft when leaving the factory. I am lazy here and did not remove the satellite shaft that comes with the factory. Just open a slot.

After installing the sandwich cotton and the under-shaft pad, the inner tank can be installed. By the way, attach the Poron spacers inside the accessories to the ears on the left and right sides of the positioning plate.

After installing the liner, turn it back intact, then stick the Poron bottom cotton in the upgrade package on the back of the PCB, and finally install the metal bottom case, and the upgrade is complete.

The overall process of installing the upgrade package is very simple, and novices can complete it within 20 minutes.

3.3 Shaft body

After installing the liner, turn it to the front. At this time, you need to install the shaft body. Here I choose Jiadalong CJ shaft, a tripod shaft body with dust-proof side walls, similar to the upgraded version of Jiadalong G silver. The shaft body is smoother and more stable. The Luofei Xiaoqiao Pro in the previous group also used this shaft body. I feel that the shaft body feels good, so I continue to use this shaft body.

The transparent PC upper cover, the shaft and the bottom shell are made of blue-purple POM material, which is the kind that becomes smoother with use.

The trigger stroke is 1.2mm, and the silver-like shaft body is triggered in advance, but the trigger pressure of 45gf is not easy to accidentally touch. In my personal experience, it is more stable than G silver. The factory lubrication effect is better and the rebound is more comfortable. The coding experience and The game experience is good.

After putting on the keycap and looking at the shaft body together, the color is quite good.

3.4 Keycaps and large keys

The keycaps I chose are lelelab's purple transparent keycaps, but since this set of purple transparent keycaps is not a complete set, there is no split space for 2U and 2.75U, and there is no double B keycap.

So here the left space uses the number 0 with a length of 2U, the space with a length of 2.75U on the right uses shift , and the five macro keys on the left use numbers 1~5. So far, the installation of Q10 is complete.

4. Game experience

In terms of games, I used Q10 to play dota2 and CSGO for a few days.

When playing dota2, I often use F1 to control the hero, and F2 and F3 to select the courier to control the courier. Occasionally, I accidentally touch the 5 macro buttons on the left. Fortunately, they are not set as F area buttons. My own skill buttons are set to QWER buttons. , because there is a gap between the Q and W keys of the Q10 and an inclination. Compared with the normal keyboard used before, the left hand has to be inclined accordingly and there is a slight gap between the little finger and the ring finger. The overall experience does not feel much affected.

When playing CSGO, because ESC is relatively close to F1, I often feel strange when pressing ESC to return to the menu after buying items, and the button layout is different from what I used before.

Secondly, the left side is a space with a length of 2U. When you often jump from the box, you will knock down the left edge of the space. If you place it on the space for a long time, your thumb will feel strange to the touch.

But the biggest advantage is that you can use the left hand to rotate the knob to adjust the volume in the game, and there will be no problems caused by adjusting the volume without holding the mouse with your right hand.

5. VIA instruction (driver)

Like Keychron's previous Q series, without a driver, you still need to use VIA to change the key. Compared with the driver, the advantage is that the web page can directly change the key!

And the FN key of Keychron Q10 can also be changed.

In addition to setting the keys, you can adjust the RGB lighting effect and brightness of the keyboard. There are 21 kinds of lights in total. By the way, besides adjusting the volume, the knob can also be used to adjust the RGB lighting through the FN+knob operation.

6. Summary

If you feel that your fingering is cost-effective and you want to buy Alice with a mechanical keyboard to type and let your hands relax naturally, I think Q10 is more worth buying than Q8, because it is more convenient to use with the F area, and the design of the left knob can Operate the knob while holding the mouse.

If the budget is limited and you want to experience Alice configuration, you can take a look at Keychron’s V8 or V10, which are the plastic versions of Q8 and Q10. The shaft body uses the K Pro shaft. I have used the K Red Pro V8 before, and the overall smoothness is not bad. good.

However, the V8 is in short supply and has been sold out, and now only the V10 is available for purchase.

advantage:

Aluminum keyboard with gasket structure, component comparison group

Support via key change, good playability

Alice is equipped with a double B design, which is suitable for the use of Chinese people

The design of the knob on the left plus 5 macro buttons makes daily use more convenient, and it is also suitable for gamers

Areas that can be improved:

The finished shaft body is still the basic shaft of Jiadalong, and I hope that it will be upgraded in the future

The out-of-the-box filling has no under-shaft pad, and the sandwich cotton is made of EVA material. If you have requirements for hand feel and sound, you need to upgrade it yourself

The 5 macro buttons on the left are easy to accidentally touch with the root of the little finger
