Feeling full score, there is a lack of surprises elephant keyboard DX1 retro Bluetooth mechanical keyboard

Hello everyone~

In the first half of the year, under the auspices of Aunt Zhang, the keyboard tossed several. In June, Zhongjun brought a retro Bluetooth mechanical keyboard that resembles a typewriter. After a two-month wait, we finally waited for the protagonist to share with you today, the elephant Dxwriter DX1.

With palm rest body shot

At the time of the test, the elephant keyboard is still in the crowdfunding stage. The selling point of the entire keyboard lies in its retro style, with the crisp sound and percussion sense of the blue axis, and the typewriter's typing experience. In addition, the keyboard is also equipped with USB + Bluetooth dual mode, users can choose according to their own preferences.

Exterior

So one package, one package, one package, and one package received on a certain day of the year

Hurry up and see an elephant

In addition to the parcel box that was mailed, the official packaging is a black box with an elephant logo on the front and no other logos. It is very concise.

After opening, it is the main body of the keyboard. The "weight of the carrying words" on the cover paper conveys its orientation. I think that under the spoilers, the palm rest of the keyboard is really like paperweight, and it is also a deduction.  

The first impression of touching it is that it is enough to force

Family portrait. The family includes the keyboard body, palm rest, matching Bluetooth receiver, USB cable, manual, and a key puller. There is a Tucai button. The default opening of the button puller is larger than the keycap. It can't hold the keycap completely. It needs to be held down by the other hand to use it. At the same time, the keycap is very laborious. The funny thing is to pull it down and the keycap flies out. . Fortunately, it is not for tooth extraction. Practice has proved that pulling the keycap on this keyboard is the easiest way to get started.

In the bright morning light of the morning, a box of glittering elephant keyboards

We know that one of the children who toss the keyboard is tossing the keycaps. Tossing the keycap, saying it is to face the value and personality. I think a typewriter keyboard, can be said to have reached an extreme in the value and personality, as it is not on the desk every day to make eye-catching, this can be a good question. . During my first day out of the box & using it, the question asked by the little friends passing by was not "What is this brand of keyboard?", but "What is this????", "You can tell Why is this for me????, and, "This shouldn't be a keyboard, right?!" I think, like the SP's set of colorful keycaps, the elephant is facing A somewhat awkward situation is that the face value is too high and the personality is too full.

In other words, how much this style is still very appealing, if my family is also like a master, to enjoy a light to step on two paws

To imitate the typewriter's handle, this key can be set to "macro" to replace up to five key rules. Then, when you use it, just pull the wrench and the set keys will be pressed in turn, which is quite cool.

Identify the body, cherry green axis

After the keycaps are completely unplugged, the blue axis of the full keyboard brings back some modern feeling.

Large key satellite axis

From the satellite axis of the space bar, it is relatively clear that the balance bar is adopted. There are no satellite shafts on both sides, but two clips are added to the keycap. This design is indeed more convenient than the addition of the satellite shaft, but it may not be easy to adapt to other keycaps. Considering that there is no need to change the keycap, the fitting problem can be ignored.

Keys behind the keycap and the balance bar

The key cap is pbt material + a circle of metal. Metals are easy to stick to fingerprints, and wood has the rest of the slots.

== This should be corrected: After the addition of a week later, the engraving on this keycap actually fell. . . . It will not be more retro

In less than a week, knocking codes are used every day. The phenomenon of marking off the keycap is obvious, and the elephant key is the most serious.

Take some more body shots

Features

Macro

Let's introduce the macro key wrenches that will be overflowing.

In simple terms, you can configure a sequence, and then just flip the handle, the elephant will help you press this sequence. For example, according to the instructions, set the sequence to abcde, then pull the wrench, abcde, magic!

However, it seems that the more common combination is to set it to command + tab, and then pull the wrench, cut the window, ah, yes, the user bigger add one more point.

Before using the habit, how many will feel that the wrench is a bit out of the way. After getting used to it, I still like this action. After all, before the cut window to move the palm to the position and there are two buttons, now as long as the little finger to go hook on it, practicality can also add one point.

However, in the process, I encountered a problem. Sometimes the macro will only have the tab key and lose the command, resulting in another button. Do not quite understand what the problem is. Here to the elephant's classmates to bring a bug, solve the bug ~

Bluetooth

Another important feature is the dual mode of the keyboard, which supports both wired and Bluetooth dual modes.

First, the Bluetooth/Wired mode switch is manual. For the system, the elephants in Bluetooth and wired mode are also identified as two different keyboards, even if the same keyboard body is used.

The fn key+1/2 is a Bluetooth/wired mode switching function key.

At the same time, the USB Type-C cable attached to the body can also be used as a Bluetooth charging cable. There are some things beyond my expectations. Before receiving the keyboard, I thought that elephants would use ordinary batteries like other common Bluetooth keyboards. The use of rechargeable batteries is more convenient or more troublesome. This is a matter of opinion.

USB Type-C interface and Bluetooth switch. Not aligned, obsessive-compulsive disorder cries in the toilet

The use of the wired part is very normal and without any scaring. The performance of the Bluetooth part is generally normal, but there are some cases of instability. The instructions will remind the first charge to be filled for 5 consecutive hours. In the beginning, Bluetooth had some delays. After the charge indicator went out, there was no longer a problem with the key delay. Just the wrench macro key configuration just mentioned will lose the command key under Bluetooth. In addition, in the course of use, there has been a Bluetooth self-interruption phenomenon, of course, press any button will automatically reconnect, but this interruption phenomenon looks like a technical problem, after all, the Bluetooth keyboard of the Big F family did not appear too.

experience feelings

Overall, the experience of using this keyboard is still very good, even more than my initial expectations. At first, it thought that it had won most of the money. After using it for a week, especially after getting used to its key and arrangement, it was still very easy to use. Especially like these points

1, retro style, and the strong sense of passage and voice of the green axis is very strong, very much in line with their respective expectations to the user, starting from the use of feelings, these are strengthening the "I'm typing a typewriter" psychological hint, this feeling Very interesting

2, the macro key wrench is a small surprise and highlight in the experience

3, the keyboard with the dock is very practical, in addition to the iPad can be used as a base when the keyboard, you can also simply as a mobile phone base, for the office is a good desktop supplement

Let iPad also have a physical keyboard

Also mentioned some deficiencies:

1, although the ergonomic curve of this matter should be considered somewhat subjective, but this keyboard is a bit too peaceful, if not with the palm rest, with a bit tired for a long time.

2, this can not be regarded as insufficient, to pay attention to the size of the keyboard, for the 84-key keyboard, much larger. It's worth paying for .... Of course, a large keyboard is not a problem for a large desktop, so it is a concern.

3, the key imprint has a more obvious shedding phenomenon.

Thanks to Zhong Zhengjun for giving this test opportunity. Recently, it is time pressure is very great, quickly write this test, may not understand the depth of some features (maybe people are not bugs). If there are any omissions or lack of splendor, I hope everyone will bear more. Finally, thanks for someone to help with photography, your 20mm wide-angle film lens and the theme are also special, to the end of a film effect, I wish everyone happy Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day ~
