Another year of 618, mechanical keyboards will also usher in greater discounts. This article brings you a guide to purchasing at various prices.

The price-performance ratio of mechanical keyboards at this price is not high, and they basically just click. It is recommended to add a few hundred dollars to buy an entry-level mechanical keyboard with cherry switches. If you really don't want to add money, the following two items can be considered.

Black Canyon (Hyeku) GK707, the box white switch equipped with the standard cherry blue switch in terms of feel, also killed a lot of entry-level products in that year. It’s cool in the dark, but its shortcomings are obvious. The workmanship is rough and the keycaps are cheap. If you want a mechanical keyboard with a strong feel, you can choose it.

The Xiaomi mechanical keyboard, which attracted quite a lot of attention at the beginning of its launch, adopts the consistent minimalist design of the Xiaomi series, the compact layout of all keys, and six backlight modes, ergonomic design, priced at more than 100 clicks, which is not bad , The disadvantage is that the keycaps and feel are not good, it is best to choose self-operated, and if there is a problem, it can be solved after sale.

This price range is the distribution range of the main mechanical keyboards. You can choose ones that feel good in the hand, or those that focus on appearance. Both wireless and wired ones are available. It depends on what you focus on.

Goss GS87 is a cherry switch mechanical keyboard with a price of only more than 200 yuan. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the cheapest cherry switch keyboard. The highlight is the cherry switch, which is durable and can be used casually for three to five years without any problems. The small flaw is that the adjustment of the large keys is average, the problem of the spring sound is a little bit, and the quality control still needs to be improved.

The IKBC classic series is a best-selling work of an old domestic keyboard manufacturer. It has been sold for so many years. The simple and unaesthetic design is still pbt wear-resistant. The highlight of this keyboard is that the large keys are well adjusted and feel It is comfortable on the top, and there are few phenomena such as spring sound. It shows the high-quality feel of the cherry shaft body. It is a good choice at the price of 300 yuan.

The akko manufacturer has perfectly entered the field of appearance in recent years. Its co-branded IP series are released one after another, and it is really unique in the theme design. Combined with the price of some of its products, it is only more than 300 yuan, which is true. It's buying a face value and getting a keyboard. Akko’s cherry blossoms are pretty good for girls, and rough guys also have a cute feeling when using them. Their products don’t feel good in the hand, and the shafts they use are so-so. Buying Akko is just for the appearance, and nothing else Extravagant.

This price is considered to be the most cost-effective range for mechanical keyboards. This is because the price increase is not obvious anymore. It needs to be doubled at least to say that there is an improvement in all aspects. At the price of 400 to 500, I think Dujia is the best choice, because I like to buy two and keep them in my hands.

Dujia, which turned out to be born in the sky, was known for its cost-effectiveness when it was launched. Its excellent hand-feeling workmanship and simple and elegant design concept have won praise from many players. Baize is a higher-level mechanical keyboard, but I think Dujia K320/310 is the most perfect masterpiece at this price.

The minimalist narrow bezel design is the conspicuous point of the K320. Although the male model is used and slightly modified, the height of the original factory is more in line with the ergonomic concept. This simple and elegant design aesthetic makes the keyboard look pleasing to the eye as a whole.

In terms of keycaps, Dujia's workmanship is worth mentioning. PBT's high wear-resistant keycaps are made of hard work. The two-color closed characters are used. The keycap spouts are perfectly processed without burrs. The contact surface feels very strong and is not easy. Oily, even people with sweaty hands feel comfortable.

The hand feeling is the most proud point of Dujia. The cherry switch body equipped with it is refreshing in the handling of the large key position. Although it is a satellite switch design, the large key position feels straight up and down after careful adjustment. No wonder it was called a half-price big L back then, haha, of course this is a joke. Mention here that the silver shaft is the most popular shaft, and it is well received under the product evaluation!

In terms of color matching, k320 also launched four colors, ranging from calm space gray to clean and refreshing natural white, and there are also two options of light and matte. It also takes care of the wireless aspect. It can be said that it is continuing the workmanship. On the basis of this product, it takes care of various consumer groups, and truly brings out the characteristics of k320. The price of 618 activities is as low as 400 yuan, which is really delicious! !

Girl, looking at the mechanical keyboards in my closet, she asked me with question marks on her face: You only have two hands, how can you buy so many keyboards, and how do you use them?

I just asked a question: Have you ever thought you have too much lipstick?

What does a mechanical keyboard mean to boys? Personally, I think the hobby of collecting keyboards is a great way to maintain mental health. A well-designed and well-crafted mechanical keyboard not only makes you look happy, but also provides feedback to your fingertips, which is an unrivaled way to decompress.

Then, here comes the question: Is there a keyboard that can turn the question mark on the face of a girl who doesn't understand technology into a fanatical look of fascination?

I think the Lofree "Vitality Orange" transparent 1% dual-mode mechanical keyboard has this magic power.

Lofree "Vitality Orange" 1% transparent dual-mode mechanical keyboard is a compact wireless keyboard with a 68-key layout.

Whether it is the Apple iPad that is trying to replace the notebook, or the Honor Tablet and Huawei Tablet that advocates "light office scenarios", the 68-key layout mechanical keyboard that is more compact and portable but still maintains an excellent feel is a good CP combination choice. .

Like Lofree's previous 1% transparent dual-mode mechanical keyboard, "Vitality Orange" is also a member of the 1% transparent mechanical keyboard family. From the official definition, "Vitality Orange" is classified as a limited edition.

Therefore, in terms of packaging elements, Lofree designers deliberately added orange elements.

Restriction naturally means extraordinary.

In terms of packaging design, the packaging of the limited edition "Vitality Orange" 1% transparent dual-mode mechanical keyboard is completely customized. Not only is the orange element added to the cabinet, but the theme copy of the design is completely different from the previous 1% transparent regular version:

Vitality is: true and unaffected childishness,

Vitality is: the courage to take risks and face adversity,

Vitality is: proud, stubborn and unconvinced!

In the accessory part, in addition to the essential manual and warranty card, a type-c elbow data cable and a scratch card are included.

I'm rather surprised, why the wire is sent in black. I bought a Lofree three-mode keyboard before, and the gift is a gray wire, which feels more suitable.

To be honest, I just looked at the pictures on the official product page, and did not go to the store to see the actual product and directly "blind in". Although I know what the Lofree "Vitality Orange" 1% transparent dual-mode mechanical keyboard looks like, but the moment I unpacked it, I was still amazed.

The keycap of the "Vitality Orange" 1% transparent dual-mode mechanical keyboard has an amazing visual sense. According to the parameters on the official website, the 1% transparent double key cap is made of imported material from Germany, which has ultra-high permeability and stable molecules. Under normal circumstances, there will be no yellowing and discoloration.

The keyboard shell of the "Yuanqi Orange" 1% transparent dual-mode mechanical keyboard also adopts a particularly advanced silver high-gloss plating process, and the texture is very outstanding.

The design of "Vitality Orange" 1% transparent dual-mode mechanical keyboard is a test of craftsmanship and quality control. It is no exaggeration to say that even a single flaw in the installation will have devastating consequences.

I am very happy, it seems that Lofree, a local product, has perfectly mastered this extremely challenging craft.

The keycap part adopts pad printing + UV process, which can ensure that the characters will not fade after long-term use.

Different from the normal version of the 1% transparent dual-mode mechanical keyboard:

Under the orange transparent keycap of the switch body is an orange MX structure jellyfish switch, and under the transparent keycap is a transparent MX structure jellyfish switch.

"Yuanqi Orange" 1% transparent dual-mode mechanical keyboard has built-in white LED lamp beads. It has seven lighting effect modes, the brightness can be adjusted in four levels, and the light effect flickering frequency can be adjusted in four levels. The light and shadow effect in the working state is very dazzling.

In addition, I would like to specifically mention the last sentence: the keycap of the "Yuanqi Orange" 1% transparent dual-mode mechanical keyboard has the theme elements of "Energetic Summer", full of energetic summer vitality.

The Bluetooth wireless connection mode of the 1% transparent dual-mode mechanical keyboard of "Yuanqi Orange" not only has good support for WIN10 and Apple MAC OS, but also is universally compatible with Linux, Android, and iOS.

The "Yuanqi Orange" 1% transparent dual-mode mechanical keyboard feet are added with a large area of ​​rubber material, which supports two-stage height adjustment, and the grip of the flat surface is very reliable.

Built-in 2000mAh lithium battery, once charged, can support up to one month of battery life. The compact size and weight control of 812 grams undoubtedly make it a very good mobile and portable feature.

The knocking sound of the code word of the MX structure jellyfish switch belongs to a relatively light mechanical switch body, and it is not noisy at all to use it outside. The feel feedback of keystrokes belongs to the category of silky linear shafts. There is no trigger pressure, and the rebound and feel of the shafts are particularly good.

The trigger pressure of the MX structure jellyfish shaft is 45gf, the rebound force is 15gf, the total stroke is 3.6±0.3mm, the conduction stroke is 1.8±0.3mm, and the life span is 100 million times.

"Vitality Orange" 1% transparent dual-mode mechanical keyboard is obviously a peripheral peripheral that can win by its appearance design, but Lofree Luofei still gives the fun that a mechanical keyboard should have.

"Vitality Orange" 1% transparent dual-mode mechanical keyboard is not only super-looking, super-portable, and super-feeling, but also firmly locks the vitality of summer in the FUN 2m² space within our reach, with a lively and interesting The design elements let us meet a more interesting and happy self.

The continuous price drop of mass-produced keyboards, coupled with more and more personalized styles, has made many inflated customized keyboards have nowhere to go. I believe that friends who are still choosing a new keyboard recently may find many excellent choices within the price watershed of 500 yuan.

Of course, there must be trade-offs in some aspects within the budget, which can be niche configurations, shafts, backlights, and even wireless dual-mode with built-in batteries. The Dujia family has come up with a very distinctive new member-Hi Keys dual-mode mechanical keyboard. Compared with Fusion, which was popular in the early years, it has the same effect, but this time the price is much more affordable, and it is likely to become the sales king in the follow-up brand.

Straight man Dujia played a retro style in Fusion, and finally used Hi Keys to show that he can also go trendy and young.

The 84 keys satisfy most of the wind vanes who do not want to start with the 87/104 traditional keyboard arrangement, so there is no need to worry about not being able to adapt to the arrangement. In addition to the lack of a small numeric keypad, the function keys are complete, and the font of the silver-white color keycaps is clear and intuitive.

The packaging has changed a lot this time, and many designs and details have shown a young and fashionable new face. Since it is a wireless dual-mode keyboard and does not support hot swapping, Hi Keys is only equipped with a charging cable as an accessory.

Whenever I change to a new keyboard, I need to get used to it more or less. As I mentioned earlier, there is no pressure to use this 84 configuration immediately. But for its unique "curved body", it needs to be reminded that the design of the whole machine can be said to be round and angular, and with the unique height of the floating keycap, it still needs some adaptation and transition period.

I personally recommend that when using Hi Keys, please directly use the height of the raised support feet to work, especially for office parties who use a lot of F area, it is especially recommended.

For the wireless small array keyboard, my requirement is to have as few openings as possible, and the sense of unity is more important than anything else. The front of Hi Keys uses silver + white as the main color as a whole, and it is the first time to see the square frame design in the keyboard. The keycap characters are clearly embellished with Fn orange, which makes the all-white design stand out as well.

The entire large-area foot pad above the bottom is made of very strong materials, which also meets the needs of wireless use anywhere. Not only that, Dujia has the obsession with the storage compartment of the 2.4G receiver. Even on the keyboard of Hi Keys, which focuses on Bluetooth mode, it has not given up the consideration of 2.4G users.

The design surprises of Hi Keys are far from over. I once thought the indium-plated ball was just a shape design, but I didn’t expect it to be a toggle switch. The same indium-plating process is applied to the top knob and lever switch. This series of small designs and materials are very suitable for my concept of integrated design, and also meet the original intention of this young and energetic design.

The Hi Keys keycaps are of the height of the private model, the large key satellite axis, and the slightly raised pressing area have a completely different typing experience from the traditional keyboard. Considering the highly personalized keycaps, the ABS material + UV font technology is expected to maintain a good balance between cost and feel. As for the durability, it is definitely not as good as PBT. If you need to replace the keycap in the future, you need to consider the direction of short shaft, suspension, and flattening.

In terms of the shaft body, Hi Keys provides two options: Kaihua tea shaft (paragraph) and Kaihua mute red (linear). This has been seen in the follow-up white version of K610w. This Kaihua Turbo customized shaft body, the wall shaft design, stability and smoothness have a good guarantee. In terms of parameters, the 80 million lifespan of the tea shaft and the 50 million lifespan of the mute red are used and can be passed down to the family, so the durability of the non-hot-swappable design does not need to be too entangled.

Faithful to design and unique personality, more and more keyboards are now avoiding the RGB route. Compared with e-sports, there should be RGB, and the daily office keyboard that pursues focus and battery life seems to be enough for monochrome. Hi Keys gives a good white atmosphere lighting effect, supports light and dark, fast and slow, and up to eight light effect adjustments. There is no glare when using it, and the white overflow light may be the best outbound light effect.

Compared with the concept of giving everything, Hi Keys canceled the wired mode very thoughtfully, and the three-channel wireless (2.4G+Bluetooth 1+Bluetooth 2) has the fastest switching knob and lever mode currently. Perhaps mobile office itself is the original design intention of Hi Keys, not to mention mobile devices, even desktop computers are now turning to wireless office. As for which one is better or worse, I can't judge. As far as my current needs are concerned, it seems that the wired mode is not so necessary.

If the cable is "castrated", then the wireless function is bound to get extra points. This time, Dujia has achieved nearly a year of battery life (Bluetooth + light off mode) in Hi Keys, which can be said to directly fill up the low power consumption. Even if the lighting effect is full, the keyboard still supports (5V2A) three-hour full charging, which is really a master of battery life.

It has to be said that Hi Keys, a new member of Durga this time, has made a new understanding of the hexagon, which has seen too many differences in the homogenization of mass-produced keyboards today. The simple but not simple 84 keys can make it easy for office novices to get started, and it can also allow experienced peripherals to experience a different tapping feel. On the premise of high performance, low latency, and stable output, the dedication to white light has also created a new understanding of users' self-needs.

Hello everyone! Today, I will give you a hands-on experience to experience a small and compact keyboard, which is the purple gold version of the A81 mechanical keyboard from Dareu. The reason for choosing this version is also because it is more vivid and warmer than the other black transparent version and frost blue. Moreover, the price is less than 500, and there are many practical designs. Not much to say, let’s take a look at whether such a mechanical keyboard can stimulate your desire to buy?

Nowadays, mechanical keyboards have gradually gained popularity. When we choose a keyboard, in addition to caring about its appearance, the feel is also very important to us. After all, in the entire desktop culture, the keyboard has assumed a very important role. , Yan value means justice, and not many people would refuse it.

The Dareu A81 mechanical keyboard we chose this time adopts a simplified 75% layout, with only 81 keys on the entire keyboard, and such a compact design allows us to release more desktop space to store some other items. s things.

In terms of functional connection, Dareu’s A81 mechanical keyboard adopts a three-mode connection method, supports Bluetooth, 2.4G, and wired connection methods, which can perfectly match the connection needs of our Windows computers, Macs, and even Android or iOS devices. Moreover, the end face of the keyboard also brings us the connection options of Windows and Mac, fully taking into account the needs of users of the two major systems, and it is quite careful.

And if you need it for daily office work, I suggest that it is more comfortable to choose the wireless 2.4G mode connection, so that you can fully extend its battery life and give you a stable connection performance.

When it comes to the battery life of a keyboard, I think Dareu’s A81 mechanical keyboard with a 4000 mAh lithium battery must have a name, and it can last for more than one month when the RGB light is turned off. Under the environment of the light, it is not a big problem to use it for a week, and this keyboard also sets a smart sleep function for us, which fully reduces the frequency of our physical switching, which is simple and convenient.

Next, I will talk to you about the feel of the mechanical keyboard. In fact, the reason why everyone chooses a mechanical keyboard is that many users must be for better work efficiency and a more comfortable button feel. The biggest feature of Dareu's A81 mechanical keyboard this time is that it uses an innovative elastic arm Gasket structure design.

The main reason is to form a better soft contact force through the combination of the newly designed T-shaped PCB board and the high-toughness silicone sleeve. In the entire three-dimensional structure of the keyboard, there are more materials such as interlayer sound-absorbing silicone, Poron cotton silicone sleeve, and silicone. To increase the soft bounce feel of the keyboard, it can bring us more comfortable feedback in daily office or games.

In terms of the choice of the switch body, we chose the Zijin Switch Pro this time. The overall elasticity is good, and the key travel is not long. It will not bring excessive fatigue and numbness to the fingers in the daily code word office and game process.

In terms of details, this keyboard also supports the hot-swappable function of all keys, we can completely replace the main body according to our own needs, and easily DIY a keyboard of our own.

After this period of actual use, the overall feeling of this Dareu A81 mechanical keyboard is still good. The good impression mainly comes from the following two aspects. The first point is that its bright color matching can bring our desktops Come to be more angry. In addition, the switch body of the Zijin Switch Pro brings us a more comfortable writing feel in daily life. The key is to consider that the price of this keyboard is less than 500 yuan. I personally think it is still worth considering. of. I don’t know what do you think of such a Dareu mechanical keyboard A81? Welcome your comments and discussions in the comment area, today’s sharing ends here, and we will see you next time!

A few days ago, I bought the GK980+ kit of the little nerd. The unboxing content is in the previous article, so I won’t repeat it here. If you are interested, read "Unpacking the Nervous GK980+ Keyboard Kit, Is the price of 238 worth buying?" "This time the content is mainly about assembly and sharing experience, so let's go directly to the topic.

Kit is bought back. But the shaft and the keycap have not yet started. And this kit doesn't have a satellite shaft yet. Although you can customize the switch body, keycap, satellite switch and the like from the small nerd, the price is relatively expensive. Or you can choose to buy additional ones according to your needs.

PS: The minimum cost of the small worm's axis is 100, and the most expensive is more than 200 (gold powder axis v2). The satellite axis is also 40.

After doing homework on the Internet, the hyacinth of the bald brother used for the satellite axis. A set of 19 yuan can be said to be very affordable. The only thing is that you need to lubricate the shaft and assemble it yourself. It may not be friendly to novices, but it is not difficult. It's my first time too.

A set of satellite shafts can be made of 9 (1 large and 8 small), and a small bottle of grease, brushes, foot pads, two adjustable iron posts, and a pack of white ones.

The switch body was originally planned to buy the ash wood switch V3, which is the king of cost-effective rolls. Toto usually has more than 50 and 100 pieces. However, after reading the news, there is a discount at 8:00 pm on Duodu. You can buy 100 for 36 yuan. So I decided to try squatting for three days. However, it didn't come out for three days. Instead, I saw a TTC gold powder switch v2 in Xianyu, with an asking price of 170 for 112 pieces. I'm a little interested, I tried to chat with the seller, and finally got it for 150 free shipping.

This set of gold powder shafts has been machined. The seller also made no secret that it was collected from Xianyu. When the previous seller collected it, some shafts were filled with soot. I'm fine, as long as it works.

The TTC gold powder switch V2 is a linear switch, and I have been attracted to this switch body long ago. The last rk98 was equipped with colorful axes. It is said on the Internet that it is a gold powder shaft for skin replacement. The last rk98 is pretty good in terms of typing. It just feels draining after a long time. This time, by chance, I entered the gold powder shaft, and I will have a good experience in a while.

I want to buy a set of keycaps on Xianyu. I feel that buying keycaps in Yuli is either cheap or not good-looking, good-looking but not cheap, and most of them do not include postage. So in the end, I bought a set of programmer keycaps for 40 yuan in Duodoli. This price must be a replica (imitation).

As a money-saving expert, I don’t think about box packaging, and it’s affordable to pack directly in bags.

Regarding this set of keycaps, it is not very recommended. Although it is good-looking. But the workmanship is average, and the overall texture feels thin. Moreover, the burrs on the inner wall of several keycaps have not been dealt with properly.

I lubricate the satellite shaft before assembling. In fact, it doesn't matter whether it is moist or not. Some people like customized things and some don't. I also shot a video before the break, but there was that kind of steel wire sound. Those who are interested can take a look.

Before wet

It is also the first time for me to moisten the satellite shaft. I thought that the inside of the shaft should also be moistened. (I thought, anyway, it’s so lubricating, so it’s not for nothing.
), the result is a super-meat feel, and it will not rebound when pressed. Checked online, too much grease was used. So it was removed again, and the grease in the shaft was wiped clean, and only a little grease was applied to the two rods.

Of course, applying grease is also a personal preference. Some people may like the feeling of this kind of meat, so they should apply more oil. I don't like it very much, just brushed it a little bit. It feels better in the hand, and the sound is crisp and crisp as I like.

After moistening

Install the shaft body, there is nothing to say. Insert it directly into the alignment port.

Satellite shaft part.

After the programmer presses the keyboard, you're done.

I always feel like something is missing. By the way, the optional rotary button has not been installed yet.

Installation is also very simple, just plug it in.

The assembled keyboard weighs 1239 grams.

Typing experience:
The gold powder shaft is known as the best shaft for codewords. I have experienced it myself, it feels really good. It feels very carefree, and the sound is also like the sound of mahjong. The trigger is relatively soft, and there is no sense of exhaustion like the colorful switch on the rk98. But I have a disadvantage when using the gold powder scroll, that is, typing too much is very tiring. I don't know if it's a personal reason.

big key sound

Wireless Latency:
The current experience of this part is very good. I plug the 2.4G adapter directly into the interface on the back of the computer. The same connection is very stable. It's never disconnected, it feels like a wired connection. I just don't know if it will be a problem for a while.

RGB lighting effect:
To be honest, I don't pay much attention to this point, as long as it feels good in the hand and the wireless connection is stable. The effect is still there, but the keycaps are opaque. So it's hard to see the lights.

Let me talk about its shortcomings through a few days of experience.

Computer Software:
It seems that many functions can be set, such as lighting settings, key settings, macro settings and the like. But the summary of my experience is that it sucks. I found that the simple setting of lighting effects did not preview when I clicked the keyboard, and it did not take effect when I clicked save and apply. Anyway, I didn't bother to study it later.

shop service
: Bad, as mentioned above, I want to ask how to use the customer service software, the answer is: Dear, you can follow our official account, there are the latest tutorials. However, it didn't pay attention. Also, it was found that there was no shaft puller, and I asked the customer service and said there was. Respond to him, ask me to send him a photo, and after sending it, ask me to send him a video. After sending it, please ask us for after-sales feedback on a working day.

Data line interface:
The design of this keyboard charging interface is really difficult to use. As shown in the figure below, the interface is inside, and the basic blind insertion cannot be inserted. Moreover, this kind of design port is not easy to insert, it needs to be turned over, and coupled with the hard data cable, I don't want to pull it out every time I plug it in for charging.

Because I am not satisfied with this set of programmer keycaps, I just saw the EVA zero-themed keycaps for sale in Xianyu, and the free shipping is only 30 yuan. Start decisively. After getting it, I really feel that I have earned it. The quality is better than programmer's. After pressing it, the appearance is also very good. I won't go into details here.

There are two sets of keycaps, which one do you guys prefer?

Overall, I am very satisfied with the GK980+ keyboard kit. The appearance is very high, and the functions you want can be used stably. It is recommended if you want to buy it.

Well, this is the end of this content, thank you for your patience to watch. Give me a thumbs up if you like it.
