When it comes to mechanical keyboards, foreign brands such as Logitech and Razer may be the first thing that keyboard players think of, but in fact, many domestic brands are also quietly rising. Among them, Lofree is the most worth mentioning. His mechanical keyboard is unique. , redefining the mechanical keyboard with its own style. I praise his products so much because I recently got one of Lofree's classic works - Lofree Luofei Xiaoqiao Mechanical Keyboard, a customized keyboard that can be completely DIY by yourself. Players can customize it according to their own preferences. Choose the shaft, keycap and bottom plate, and come with me today to see how playable his keyboard is. After getting the Lofree keyboard, the switch body, keycap and bottom plate are divided into three separate packages. The switch body and keycap need to be installed by yourself. Although the whole installation process takes a long time, it can reflect DIY of real fun. I chose the 68-key cement gray body according to my preference. The 68-key keyboard is much smaller than other keyboards, which can save most of the desktop space. There are independent direction keys, and the main key area is complete. Instruction manual The above also gives a complete function of Fn plus major keys, which has a wide range of practicability. The switch body is the Kaihua Box white switch. The keys of the white switch are soft, the return force is quite strong, the paragraph feeling is extremely obvious, the typing speed is very stable, and the Kaihua Box white switch has a waterproof function. What I like the most is the social animal banana-themed cap. The light yellow and green color scheme, coupled with the cute banana pattern, adds a touch of color to the usual boring code life. There are many styles of keycaps, and you can also Enter Lofree Luofei's small program according to your own preferences--Lofree Luofei builds and chooses your favorite keycaps. The origin of the name Lofree Luofei Xiaoqiao may be because the keyboard is slightly tilted by 9 degrees as a whole, which just lifts the keyboard to the most comfortable position for typing. help. Xiaoqiao’s keycaps are made of PBT thermal sublimation material, which is not easy to leak oil and affect the touch feel. The texture of the keycaps is not rough, and the characters are not easy to wear. rate is greatly reduced. Lofree supports three-mode connection, including wired, bluetooth and wireless 2.4G, which is convenient for office use. To switch modes, you only need to toggle the lever at one end of the support column, and the 2.4G receiver can be stored on the back to prevent drop. In terms of details, Lofree has always done a good job. The small keyboard is powered by three AAA batteries, and the batteries are cleverly hidden in the cylindrical support column at the bottom of the keyboard. After sliding the cover, it can be used after inserting the battery, which is convenient. It can be used on the go, and the keyboard is also equipped with a USB Type-C interface data cable, three AAA batteries, and a key puller. In addition, if you connect the keyboard to multiple devices at the same time, you can press and hold Fn and QWER four keys to switch between different devices, which can be said to be very convenient. Generally speaking, Lofree is very satisfactory in terms of appearance, feel and quality. In addition, its unique customization method allows users to customize their own unique keyboard, which is very suitable for Young people nowadays feel very comfortable to use. If you also want to customize a personalized keyboard, then Lofree is the best choice.

Recently, I have tossed several mechanical keyboards with all-aluminum casings, including Heijue's AC067, keychron's Q1, and Q5. It must be admitted that there are many advantages of aluminum tuo, high appearance, good texture, stable as Mount Tai when placed on the table, and will not shift due to vigorous knocking. However, although the materials and crafts of the aluminum lumps I have are in place, they all have some shortcomings. For example, the slope is fixed (this is what I am most dissatisfied with), and secondly, the mass-produced aluminum lumps have simple shapes (to put it nicely, concise and elegant to restore the essence of aluminum), single-mode (it is your keychron) and the problem of high prices. So I have always planned to buy a kit separately and assemble it myself. I paid attention to the bald 9402V3 before, but later gave up for various reasons (quality control, futures, color matching, etc.). Mxrskey CK820 (Key to Mars) , this is a very interesting kit that I recently discovered. The independent private imitation reel has a super distinctive shape, three-mode, Gasket structure, full-key hot-swappable, RGB backlight, independent volume knob, magnetic suction foot stickers, the first release is 799 , super cost-effective The matching keycap is a new product recently launched by Luo Fei ( Shipboard Panda + Cute Cat ), recently a lot of people posted this, looking at itching in their hearts, they directly ordered a set of each, and the shaft body is HaFox Peripherals and Jingwei Technology jointly launched the navigation axis , the finished product is as follows ▼Mxrskey CK820 has a total of three color schemes, and of course the silver color is the first choice for aluminum. The key layout is a standard 75% sequence, and the upper right is the recently super popular volume adjustment knob. ▼The transparent PCB satellite axis, the lower light position, the white bottom plate and the aluminum alloy shell are fixed by spacers. This structure has no screws, so the hand feel is more uniform, and the spacers will add cushioning to the vertical directions of the keyboard. This is the biggest reason why the Gasket structure has become so popular recently. ▼The surface of the shell is anodized and sandblasted, which perfectly restores the texture of the metal itself. Judging from the surface of the volume knob, the craftsmanship is still in place, and the texture is extremely good. ▼A lot of effort has been put into the shape design of the keyboard. The middle is slightly arched, and the sides form a smooth arc. To tell the truth, I mainly started with this shape. Most of the shapes of aluminum lumps are sharp-edged, and this kind of arc design is really rare. ▼The sides are not monotonous either. There are hidden lamp beads inside the two RGB light strips, and the white silicone strips create a smudge effect for the light effect, and the visual effect is very good. ▼The effect after lighting is good, the light brightness is very high, and it is in the lower light position, friends who like light effects will definitely like it. ▼The Type-C interface on the top, the key line separation design, the pattern on both sides borrows from the ancient moiré shape, full of details. ▼The bottom is also very interesting. The disc area above is the position of the foot pad. The two paddles below correspond to mode and system switching. The space below is not monotonous. I don’t know if the evenly spaced jagged grooves have any special effect. But the visual performance is first-class. ▼The rubber strips distributed at the four corners of the bottom can firmly grasp the desktop, and at the same time raise the keyboard for easy input. The round foot pads are fixed by magnetic attraction, and the installation is quick. The details of the whole keyboard are really in place, especially the arc-shaped design on both sides, which is extremely rare in customized kits, because the large-angle arc surface is the key to CNC machining. It is very labor-intensive, and the cost estimate is indispensable. ▼Lofey's of the key cap use Shipboard Panda , at that time also entered the set cute cat . In the past two years, Luo Fei has also been in the key circle. The birth of Xiaoqiao Xiaolang directly conquered many users with its appearance. The subsequent 1% transparent keyboard directly brought PC materials into the public eye. To be honest, it would be an exaggeration to say how easy-to-use Luofei's keyboard is, but regardless of the keyboard keycap, the aesthetic feeling is absolutely in place. However, most of the keycaps launched by other companies can only be used on their own keyboards. It is rare to see that they are compatible with other keyboards, so naturally they have to support them. ▼The two sets of keycaps are 131-key large sets, which can basically satisfy 90% of the keyboards on the market. The shipboard panda has a cool style, which is very suitable for the aluminum tuotuo kit of the same style, and the cute cat has a pretty color scheme. I plan to use it on the previous Kezhi 980 kit for my wife. ▼The keycap material is 85% High PBT , this material has excellent dynamic mechanical properties, not to mention wear resistance, and it is not easy to oil up after long-term use. By the way, I will give you a popular science about the pit of PBT content. At present, PBT material is basically the first choice for keycaps, but the PBT content is the decisive factor. For example, some keycaps on the market dare to claim "no oil" just by adding some PBT material. Remember to pay attention when buying keycaps, the higher the PBT content, the better. ▼The key cap surface characters adopted Five-sided dye-sublimation process, engraved with large fonts, the height is OEM , basically most users can get started easily. It can also be seen from the picture that the workmanship of the keycaps this time is really good, with clear characters and bright colors, and this color is penetrated into the interior of the material through high-temperature steam, so there is no need to worry about the problem of color fading after a long time of use. ▼The mold of this set of keycaps is well done. Look at the spout, the water is smooth, and the corners are treated with reinforced arcs. Not to mention the internal ribs are enough, and characters are printed on each area, and then The thickness is also thick, and the processing cost will not be low. ▼High and low-content PBT materials also have a big difference in touch feel. High-content PBT keycaps are difficult to process, so they are usually made with a delicate matte texture. Low-content PBT keycaps often feel slippery, and the details of the keycaps cannot be experienced. ▼The shaft body I chose this time The Nautical Axis jointly launched by Hahu Peripherals and Jingwei Technology , this axis is a typical applause but not popular, of course, this may also be the reason why the audience of the paragraph axis is already small. as a typical advance paragraph axis , this kind of axis has an obvious segmented feel. You can feel a pause when you press it for the first time, and you need a certain pressure to touch the bottom. When it rebounds, it goes straight up like a linear axis. mistaken touch. ▼The color matching corresponds to the name of the shaft body. The light blue transparent PC top cover, the water blue nylon bottom shell, the blue cross POM shaft, and the support for the light position. It is very attractive in terms of appearance. Dismantling the inside of the shaft shows that there are obvious lubrication marks on the shaft center and side wall guide rails. The 19mm double-segment gold-plated spring and the shaft center are also lengthened, and the appearance is still very good. ▼The nautical axis is a paragraph axis, and the sense of confirmation is more obvious. After playing the game for a long time, the hands are tired, so I replaced a few keys commonly used in LOL with Kaihua’s Danxia axis, and the arrow keys with Kaihua’s Yanmo axis. , ESC was replaced by the Cangling axis. These three axes have been evaluated in the Black Canyon I wrote before, so I won’t go into details here. ▼The taste of the whole set comes out when the keycap is replaced ▼CK820 This kit is quite well done, not only the appearance is excellent, but because of the small cavity and the Gasket structure, the interior is relatively compact, so there is almost no cavity sound, which is the popular "mahjong sound" now. In fact, to put it bluntly, all keyboards with dense filling inside are like this. Of course, if what you are after is sound, you can choose from the axis body to adjust. For example, my nautical axis this time is such an axis body. ▼Because the characters on the keycap are opaque, the light position is basically used as an ambient lighting effect. The light brightness is relatively sufficient, but fortunately, it can be adjusted. However, the kit is too horizontal without the foot pads, and the typing experience is a bit uncomfortable, so the foot pads are better. ▼The detail craftsmanship is really in place, and there is a superimposed frame on the surface of the kit. ▼In terms of shaft experience, you can clearly feel the pause when you press for the first time, and you need to apply a certain amount of force when you press again. The second half is relatively smooth, and the rebound is fast and easy to follow. The bottoming sound is hard, and friends who like crisp sound may not like it. Generally speaking, it is a bit similar to Moyu Black, but the price is much more affordable. Try playing the audio as follows ▼The creative inspiration of shipboard pandas comes from Shandong warships and national tide culture, adding elements of national treasure pandas. The color of the main body is white, blue and red, and the large keys are designed with various elements that echo the main body. The simple lines outline gears, missiles and eye-catching text, which military fans should especially like. ▼The cute cat is based on girls’ favorite pink color, and the pattern is also based on cute cartoon cats, supplemented by smart font design. With the white Kezhi 980 kit bought before, the whole keyboard looks full of fun. ▼Put a few pictures for everyone to enjoy The whole set costs 799 (kit) + 240 (shaft) + 309 (keycap) = 1348. Separately talk about the personal evaluation of keycaps, shafts and kits There are actually quite a few aluminum kits on the market, but most of them are made of molds, and the details are handled in an ordinary way. What are the advantages of CK820? There are three modes, hot-swappable, with RGB lighting effects, independent volume adjustment knobs, and the mainstream Gasket structure has not been pulled down. The most important thing is this exclusive private model imitating a scroll, with excellent workmanship and details. 799 The price is still pretty good. My set of combinations is mainly because the switches and keycaps are not cheap. If I replace them with the very cost-effective ash wood switch V3, plus a set of keycaps of about 50 yuan, it can be done for more than 800 yuan, which is cheaper than mass-produced aluminum lumps. Not a lot. In addition, before October 10th, there will be an additional FR-4 material positioning board as a gift for orders placed during the pre-sale period. In terms of the switch body, the navigation switch can be regarded as a very characteristic switch body, with beautiful color matching, high pressing pressure, smooth second-stage experience, and low sound feedback. Dali King Kong Finger is my favorite. It is very suitable for office codes, and this kind of shaft body is also suitable for preventing false touches. However, although this switch feels good, the price is still a bit high. In addition, not many people like the paragraph switch. If the price can be reduced to less than 3 yuan, I strongly recommend it. Luo Fei’s Wenchuang keycaps are really not cheap in terms of price, but I agree with the concept of paying for the design. Whether it’s the hardcore style of warship + panda, or the cute cat keycap, you can feel the designer’s dedication. The hard work, excellent quality control and excellent craftsmanship also add a lot of points to the keycaps. Personally, if you have a certain pursuit of quality, you can try it out. That's it, self-assembled aluminum lumps with no technical content, the effect is very satisfactory. If this article is helpful to you, I hope to give a triple support, refill!

As a working social animal who makes a living by coding every day, the keyboard brother is probably the one with the most intimate and familiar hands~ Just like a warrior’s weapon, a keyboard at hand is undoubtedly the best partner. Updating the keyboard equipment from time to time can also add some new ideas to the working life of Kucao. This time, the old friend Dujia has released a new series of Hi Keys products, why don't you hurry up and try something new? ! This time, Dujia Hi Keys launched a two-color option of silver white and dark blue. I chose the darker blue with a more calm color scheme. I have a good understanding of Dujia's product series. Most of the products start with K, such as the K310 series with the highest sales. This time, the products launched by Dujia have changed from the normal, adopting a more flexible name of "Hi Keys", which seems to express a new product language. The naming of Hi Keys reveals a hint of naughtiness and playfulness. The keyboards we use every day seem to lack a greeting to Ta, Hi Keys~ Hi Keys is full of personality. This time the layout is 84 keys. Compared with 104 keys, Hi Keys cancels the numeric keypad in the key layout, which saves about 25% of the space. The keyboard is much shorter horizontally, short and compact. As for whether the existence of the numeric keypad is necessary, it depends on the user's use environment. Users who hardly use the numeric keypad at ordinary times, the optional keyboard is naturally more refreshing with the small array. The overall appearance of this keyboard is mainly simple, which is in line with the current direction of people's pursuit of simple style. In a society full of material desires, everyone wants to pursue simplicity and authenticity. The decoration company I work in contacts customers, and the choice of decoration scheme with simple style is the largest proportion of customers, which directly explains the problem. Simple is to give people a sense of comfort and security. The performance of Hi Keys is 322*138*33.7mm, with a weight of only 826.5g, light and compact, expanding the possibility of portability. I have played many keyboards with the connection mode in the form of a toggle switch, but this is the first time I have seen the switch with indium plating. As a biochemical major, I am quite familiar with the periodic table of elements. Indium element can be said to be one of the rare metals. The color of its metal form is silvery blue, and its overall physical and chemical properties are quite stable. I still remember the information when I communicated with the teacher about this element. The indium plating of the Hi Keys toggle switches is indeed a bit of a novelty. Toggle the switch to realize fast switching between 2.4G wireless and Bluetooth gears, good news for lazy people. ABS engineering plastics are widely used in the production of various parts because of their acid and alkali resistance, wear resistance, and high compositional stability; after dimensionality reduction, they can be used to make high-quality keycaps. A closer look reveals that the design of the keycaps is very thoughtful. The square keycaps do not have sharp edges and corners, and the corners are rounded. It does not have a slightly cut feel like some chocolate keyboards, and the overall feel is quite good. Hi Keys has Kaihua’s tea switch and silent red switch for choice. This is a choice between different people. Each switch has its own characteristics. You can choose what you like. Personally, I prefer to be close to the mute, but I can’t have no sound at all, so I choose a mechanical keyboard instead of a membrane keyboard. Personal preference, it may be hypocritical in the eyes of outsiders~ The side of the keyboard is the best angle to observe the ergonomic design. At this angle, the tilted angle of the bottom support and the curve of the keycap design are fully displayed. Hi Keys adopts a brand-new key design this time, which conforms to the ergonomic curve, and the roundness reveals boldness, and the visual tension is full. There will always be someone who always loses things like me, right? I have lost more than one wireless receiver for keyboards and mice before, and this thing is not easy to match, so it is always embarrassing to deduct three rooms and one living room... Fortunately, this kind of appeal has been responded to by peripheral manufacturers, Hi Keys wireless The receiver is arranged in the exclusive storage card slot, and it adopts magnetic storage, which is very advanced~ If you store it in time when not in use, you don’t have to worry about losing the receiver! Small but complete. Hi Keys has also made great efforts in managing customer experience. The preset height at the bottom of the keyboard can be adjusted by feet, and the height of the two gears can be adjusted as you like. Windows, MacOS, Android, iOS and other systems all support connection, but it seems a bit comprehensive. The mainstream computers, tablets, and mobile phones on the market are all covered. The hKBTest software tests the button condition, the face-rolling keyboard is randomly tapped, and the performance of all keys without punching is not bad, so I can play games with confidence and not be afraid of sticky multi-keys resulting in poor operation! The normal ambient sound is about 30dB, which is used as a basic reference. Numbers are the most accurate language, and the mute effect is more convincing with measured data. The volume meter is placed between the keyboard and the monitor, and you can type with normal speed and strength. At such a close distance, the typing volume is always controlled within 50dB, and the overall mute effect is quite good. The comfort of the hand is also relatively comfortable. The resilience of the mute red switch brings a soft touch to the fingertips, and the overall feeling is like a soft girl. When typing quickly, there is no sharp feeling of cutting the edges of the keycaps. The keycaps of Hi Keys are relatively round, and the long-term typing feel is really nice! WOW has been withdrawn, and the little SF can still play nostalgic. For occasional casual games, you can’t put yourself at risk because of button conflicts. The full-key no-click is also effective this time. F1-F12, which are usually idle buttons, will not be idle at this time. Hi Keys has given them different functions, among which F1-F6 is the lighting control area, which can operate the lighting effect mode, lighting brightness, lighting effect speed, etc.; F7- F12 is the multimedia control area, which can be used for playback operation and system volume adjustment, which can be said to be very comprehensive. I was not used to it when I first started, but after many times of practice, I can operate it smoothly and quickly, without him, I am familiar with it! With the increasing popularity of electronic products, people born in the 1970s can basically do touch typing without looking at the keyboard, and few people keep looking at the keyboard while typing. So whether it's RGB on the keyboard or white light, it's all about creating an interesting atmosphere. Hi Keys supports white light ambient light, which is matched with the overall avant-garde and simple style of the keyboard, showing a sense of fashion and a versatile aura. Such a keyboard with avant-garde fashion elements, a little lighting embellishment will be more perfect~Hi Keys still continues the Durga light show, the atmosphere is conveyed through the light, the white light brings continuous and stable performance, and the environment is versatile. Personalized people are actually looking for a change of mood frequently, such as constant light, rotation, breathing, starry, response, laser, ripple, wave, up to 8 ambient light modes should be enough! Of course, we can also adjust the brightness of the light according to the characteristics of the environment - no matter what, it's good to be comfortable! Isn't it just a worry-free choice to choose a wireless keyboard! Wired keyboards drag the "long tail" wires, which will cause discomfort both visually and in use, so it is best not to have charging cables frequently for wireless keyboards. The battery life of Hi Keys is not bad. According to the official introduction, under the condition of turning off the ambient light, the Bluetooth mode can last for 360 days, and the 2.4G mode can last for 200 days. It is a good news for lazy people! It is even more reassuring if it is carried on a business trip. Of course, if you like the ambient light and need to turn it on for a long time, you can check the actual battery life according to the brightness of the light in the early stage to prepare for charging. If you use it at home or in the office, you can ignore the charging problem, and you don't need to think about the charging environment that is available at any time. A good-looking and practical keyboard is like a cool and sharp sword. Who would not love it? The Durga Hi Keys series is really amazing!

If you want to turn your iPad into a lightweight laptop, then you definitely need a keyboard that works. There are many iPad keyboards on the market, and the most popular one is Apple's official Magic Keyboard. With features like an excellent trackpad, scissor-foot keys, magnetic connection, and floating stand, this keyboard lets you enjoy a MacBook-like experience. However, this keyboard also has many disadvantages, such as high price, heavy weight, limited angle adjustment, and easy bumping of the shell. Therefore, many people will look for some alternatives to meet their needs and budget. Recommend a very cost-effective iPad keyboard - WIWU Bluetooth keyboard. This keyboard is specially designed by WIWU for iPad, and its function is not much different from the original Magic Keyboard, and it is even better in some aspects. I will compare these two keyboards from the following aspects: connection method touchpad keyboard bracket protective battery life price connection method WIWU Bluetooth keyboard adopts American Broadcom 5.1 Bluetooth chip, which has fast connection speed, strong stability and wide compatibility. You only need to turn on Bluetooth in the iPad settings, select the WIWU keyboard to pair, and you can easily connect. Moreover, the WIWU Bluetooth keyboard also supports simultaneous connection of three devices, and it is very convenient to switch between different devices through Fn+Q/W/E. The original magic keyboard adopts the magnetic connection method, you only need to put the iPad close to the magnetic area of ​​the keyboard, and it can be automatically absorbed and connected. Although this method is simple and fast, it also has limitations. For example, only one device can be connected, and only models that support magnetic connection such as iPad Pro and iPad Air 4 can be connected. The touchpad of the WIWU Bluetooth keyboard feels silky and supports a variety of gesture operations, such as single-finger click, two-finger slide, three-finger pinch, etc. The trackpad is sensitive and precise, allowing you to operate it as smoothly on the iPad as you do on the MacBook. The touchpad of the original magic keyboard is also very good, and it also supports a variety of gesture operations. The size and position of the touchpad have been carefully designed to allow you to achieve the maximum operating range in the limited space. The WIWU Bluetooth keyboard uses scissor-style keys, which are evenly stressed and have a comfortable rebound. There are 14 shortcut keys on the top row, which can realize screen brightness, volume, lock screen, search and other functions. The keys are well spaced and comfortable to type on. The original Magic Keyboard also uses scissor-style keys, which have a strong sense of pressing and an excellent typing feel. However, the original Magic Keyboard has no shortcut keys, and some functions can only be realized through the touch screen or touchpad. The bracket of the WIWU Bluetooth keyboard adopts a detachable design, and the protective case and the keyboard are connected by magnetic attraction. The back shell of the protective case can be opened to support the iPad, and the angle can be adjusted arbitrarily. The protective case also has a pen slot, which can hold Apple Pencil or other capacitive pens. The bracket of the original Magic Keyboard adopts a suspension design, and the iPad is fixed on the bracket by magnetic attraction, and the angle can be fine-tuned. Although this design looks cool, it also has disadvantages: first, it is heavy; second, the range of angle adjustment is small; third, there is no pen slot. The protective case of the WIWU Bluetooth keyboard is made of a fabric-like material, which is low-key and simple, and feels very comfortable to the touch. The protective case can wrap the iPad in all directions, effectively preventing scratches and drops. There is also a small detail in the protective case: the base can be tilted at 15°, which can improve heat dissipation and typing comfort. The shell of the original Magic Keyboard is made of hard material, which looks more advanced and can also provide a certain degree of protection. But the case is prone to dust and fingerprints, and the edges are prone to bumps and flips. The WIWU Bluetooth keyboard is powered by a built-in lithium battery, and it can be used for about 30 hours after charging for two hours. There will be a red indicator light on when charging, and it will automatically turn off when it is fully charged. When in use, a white indicator light will light up, and it will flash to remind you to charge when the battery is low. The original Magic Keyboard is powered by the iPad itself and does not need to be charged or replaced separately. But this will also increase the power consumption of the iPad itself, and it will not be able to display the remaining power or remind you to charge. The current price of the WIWU Bluetooth keyboard is about 278 yuan (different models may vary), which is much cheaper than the original magic keyboard of about 2399 yuan (different models may vary). To sum up, there is not much difference between the two keyboards in terms of functions, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages in details. If you are price sensitive and don't mind using third-party brands and products, the WIWU Bluetooth keyboard is a good choice in my opinion. It allows you to enjoy a MacBook-like operating experience on the iPad, and it's also very affordable. Of course, if you have higher requirements for quality and appearance, and don't care about the price, then the original Magic Keyboard is also worth considering.
