The first time I considered buying a mechanical keyboard was due to my decision to use an external monitor for my laptop. I usually need to input a large amount of text. I hope it is the green axis or the tea axis. The notebook is the Macbook Air. It is because of this that I can't play the game. He always hates the large, heavy and electronic products connected by wires. I found that the product that fits my needs is really poor.
First of all, the 61-key layout of the keyboard, such as IKBC Poker and RK61 do not have arrow keys, I think the arrow keys are still very important to me, and Poker does not have a Bluetooth version, does not meet the requirements; 87 key seems too big, home The depth of the table is relatively shallow, and after the 87-key release, the bowl rest is no longer fit. Armillo's VB87M falls into this category (today it was not found to be the Cherry shaft!), and there was a FIlco 87 dual-mode model that came out later; Matthew. Asian FK303QBT is designed for the Mac key, but it looks bigger than Amilo. The key is that the axis body is my own. I am not sure whether it is suitable or not suitable and can't buy it. Then there is the Filco Minila Air, which basically meets the requirements, in addition to the price. So the free fish on the collection of a Japanese, almost new, the seller sent directly to me with a Japanese Amazon's box.
The seller is a very real person. When I bought it, I told him to keep an eye out. Japanese allocation is a pit. You have to be psychologically prepared. Actually, I think the impact is not so great. Originally, Mnila's key arrangement was an exotic and it took a long time to adapt. Adapting to the Japanese keyboard arrangement is obviously not a big problem. If Filco is recognized as a US keyboard in the system and then adjusted with Karabiner, it is found that changes in the positions of Fn and Burton significantly increase the efficiency. Haha, Minila is a perfect choice.
The key change artifact Karabner, in fact, did not seem to change a few just fine
It's strange! As a result, the biggest problem is that the symbols seen on the keyboard are inconsistent with the actual symbols. The keyboard is my own and no one except my family can remember the position of all the symbols. In addition to switching equipment egg pain is very high, as mentioned below.
When I first saw Luo Fei’s Dot on Taobaozhong, I was dismissive. Humph! Is the 199's keyboard comparable to my Filco? But still shamelessly looked at the introduction, I think the designers themselves must be loyal users of MacOS, the design all hit points, mainly Macbook keyboard layout plus backlight (custom), Bluetooth connection and switchable devices (Mac users have three more Set or more sets), using the green axis (Mac users play the game to play eggs). Curiosity kills cats. One did not hold back and bought one on the day that crowdfunding began. Supported the 239 yuan selection of a black keycap white body.

Although one-time packaging, but it will affect the user's mood, affecting the user's tolerance for some small flaws, compared with Filco's box design is too distracted.

I think the keyboard is still static to see the past, there is no major flaw, but also can expect the price of 200 yuan price keyboard overturned Filco not?
experience feelingsLuofei Crowdfunding mainly emphasized three aspects. For Mac key optimization, Bluetooth wired dual mode and mechanical keyboard, then I will introduce the use of these three aspects.
As a dedicated keyboard for Mac
General layout of Mac computer keyboard, some models are slightly different
Lofei Dot's key layout
I'll say good things first. Luo Fei has kept all the keys needed for the Mac intact. Filco's function keys were implemented after being modified by Karabiner, and there was no symbolic indication, and Lofay was fully owned. In addition, Luofei's backlight adjustment button was modified to adjust its own three-level backlight, to meet the Mac user habits; MacOS Sierra added a short press CapsLock switch English and Chinese, long press CapsLocks lock English capitalization features, Luo Fei Can also be achieved, and the indicator lights on the left side of the CapsLock key can also function normally, which shows that designers really do. The only work defect is on the Fn key. MacOS can wake up the voice input by double-clicking Fn, and Lofer double-clicks on Fn without responding.
In terms of key arrangement, at first glance, Lo Fei's arrangement is not different from that of the Mac computer's American keyboard, but a closer look reveals the difference. When Apple designed the keyboard for Mac computers, it might be for the sake of beauty. The gap between the keyboard keys and the keys was the same, and the entire keyboard was assembled into a complete rectangle. A circuit board on the membrane keyboard solves this problem, but how does a mechanical keyboard plug two axes in a single button space? So there are two solutions, either the keyboard is enlarged, the space for the shaft body is added, or the size of the key position is changed. Matthew's solution was the former, and Lofei chose the latter.
Matthew ia fk303qbt, feeling lower right corner and Fn will be more uncomfortable
and then?
Then it was a tragedy! Many positions between the keys and the keys on the Lophy keyboard are different from those on the Mac computer keyboard, which results in the use of the keyboard's muscle memory being useless. This has become the biggest problem for this keyboard. The other key is OK, the most obvious effect is that the keyboard uses F and J as the keys for blind positioning. In the ready state, my left ring finger presses on S. If I need to press 2, my muscle memory moves to the upper left. Touching W, and then dragging it to the left, I found 2, but what I did on Lofay touched was 1.
I think that Luo Fei chose this kind of design on the one hand because of the consideration of the characteristics of the mechanical keyboard, and on the other hand, he also bought in order to pursue the compromise of visual effects. Luo Fei's keycaps are round and round together. The most visually compact combination is to arrange the upper and lower rows in a dislocated position, just like when a group of photos is taken. We can observe that the Loctite Dot's Z key is designed directly below the W key. However, due to the legacy of the typewriter era, normal keyboards do not generally put any two keys from top to bottom in a row. The Z of the other two keyboards is located to the left of the bottom of W, and our skill in blind fights is based on the formation of muscle memory. The more skilled the person typing, the higher the probability of wrong use of Lophy. This is more efficient. The impact is fatal.
So I think that as a Mac exclusive keyboard, Lofei Dot is mixed...
As a Bluetooth keyboardFirst of all, Luo Fei's Bluetooth system hung up on Filco. Filco's switching method is to disconnect A device Bluetooth, automatic connection B device Bluetooth, sounds very simple? My laptop is hidden behind the monitor with the lid closed. Bluetooth is connected to the keyboard and touchpad. After Bluetooth is turned off, the touchpad is also disconnected. Do you tell me how to turn on the Bluetooth of my computer after connecting the B device? Do you also mean to say that this method supports multiple device switching?
Luo Fei more elegant, Fn plus 1,2,3 switch, about 2 seconds to switch to Ipad Air2, other devices have not tried. In terms of delays, I feel that Lo Fei is slightly faster than Filco's reaction, but the difference is negligible. It may also be due to the fact that Filco's tea axis feedback is not as obvious as the green axis. In addition, Luo Fei supports wired connection mode, and I feel that there is no big difference in delay between wired and Bluetooth connections.
1, 2, 3 keys have a Bluetooth logo
In most cases, there is definitely no need for portability for mechanical keyboards, but I would like to briefly mention it. Filco comes with a protective cover that can be covered with a protective keycap when it is carried, or it can be protected from falling when not in use. Lofer is not equipped. I also have to swear about Luo Fei on battery life. The publicity is that the backlight can be used for 2 years. There is no mention of the battery life to open the backlight, but the backlight can't be seen clearly! I opened up against the backlight and insisted on using it for 3 weeks. It was the second time I was charging today. I am not satisfied with the life, Filco buy back more than six months now, the original battery has always been electricity.
As a mechanical keyboardI haven't used Cherry's green axis. With Luo Fei's keycap and shaft, it feels a lot higher than the trigger pressure of FIlco's tea shaft. Feel this thing can not be described, describes the officer you do not feel, anyway, I think it may be the quality of the domestic shaft, perhaps Luo Fei's design problems, or perhaps the green shaft on this urine, one by one button down to do Cool, just like a magical ballpoint pen switch, but it would be too tired to write long texts and slow down the input speed. My two days back to Filco feels as if it's just after being squeezed out of a crowded traffic stream.
Lofei Dot's axis
Another very poor design of Lo Fei is the structure of the left Shift and the right Enter keys. Each of Filco's big keys uses a balance bar, and Lo Fei's spaces use satellite shafts. I don't want to get involved in the satellite shaft or balance the good war, but I firmly believe that no matter which faction, I would not like a key. The design of the two-axis design is very simple.
Structure of the space bar
Enter key structure
These two keys require twice the pressure of the normal key to trigger the switch. The space bar, if so designed, can be pressed with the two most powerful thumbs, and these two keys need to be pressed with the least powerful little finger. , On several occasions, I used normal strength to press and did not press, and I have to make up for it, affecting efficiency. In addition, the two keys adopt the shape of two round combinations. After the completion of an article, the most satisfying thing is to knock on the bust. If you use Luo Fei, it will feel like knocking on the table, but you don't have to worry about it. There is an 80% probability that you will not be able to press the upper or lower key.
Enter key shape
My conclusions have been written on the subject. I think that Lofei Dot is incompetent as an efficiency tool. If you are already a very efficient input person and often need to input a lot of content, then you should not consider this. Keyboard, honestly buy a normal keyboard.
But if you need a computer that controls your Mac and you use a computer to just enter short text, type text into a search box, or chat, it's much closer to Apple’s own Magic than what other mechanical keyboards can do. Keyboard. Luofei Dot has achieved a qualitative change in touch compared to the Magic Keyboard keyboard. The price is still a lot cheaper than the Magic Keyboard, and it also implements a Bluetooth switching function similar to that of the Logitech K380. Although equivalent to the K380 replaced with a mechanical shaft, but now the price I think is still expensive, not the shaft of Cherry dare to sell 400! Referring to the price of the RK61, I think that the 300 yuan is more reasonable, the patience and so on.
In the e-bike market where innovative, minimalistic designs are talk of the day, we see that manufacturers are constantly looking for smart electrical wiring systems and reliable connections to support these developments. With years of experience with our e-bike customers, we have already worked successfully around themes like the integration of brake & signal, battery and number plate lighting, high power electrical connection.
