This is an era of change! In the late 1990s, I caught up with the tail of DOS. Later, I enjoyed Windows for more than 10 years. Now, it is also popular in Android In the world of Ios and Win, the computer host has been in the home for less than 20 years. Since the mobile phone has been transformed into an intelligent one, people have less and less time to stay in front of the computer. Some games, movies and other computers can solve the use needs, which can also be done well through mobile phones and tablets. From people's use habits to the promotion of hardware and software manufacturers, Are accelerating this change!

Today's protagonist is Oneboard Pro+, a mechanical keyboard with Android system, or an Android host with mechanical keyboard. It doesn't matter what you call it. This hybrid style has brought fresh blood to the market, and the hardware can still play like this! In fact, a similar product appeared about 20 years ago. At that time, the "Little Overlord Learning Machine" was a mainframe product with a keyboard that could learn from you. Although they were separated by so many years, they had similar advantages.

Exquisite workmanship, comfortable to use

I first saw Oneboard pro+, which can be said to be perfect from the appearance alone. The silver white aluminum alloy frame with a thickness of about 3mm holds the black keyboard at a certain angle, All edges and corners of Pro+are treated with radians. Although they are made of metal, they are not cold at all. The keyboard is similar to a laptop layout, with a total of 83 keys. After power on, the backlight functions and areas are displayed in red, green, yellow, blue, and white. The brightness can be adjusted from weak to strong according to personal needs. The interface area on the side and back of the keyboard is made of translucent frosted plastic, and you can also see the blue light emerging during operation.

Pro+ The aluminum alloy frame of is not integrally formed. Considering the complexity of the internal structure and the convenience of disassembly and assembly, it is spliced at the bottom and the upper cover, and there is no gap and sense of paragraph at the interface. There is the only logo shaped heat dissipation hole at the bottom of the whole machine. Because the aluminum alloy frame and the upper part of the keyboard are conducive to heat dissipation, the host machine does not use an active heat dissipation fan. This design structure is very quiet in actual use (only the crackling sound when hitting the mechanical keyboard), and there is no temperature feel, so the thermometer is not used. (Play network video for about 2 hours)

As an Android host, pro+has abundant interfaces. The interfaces concentrated on the rear are USB mouse special interface, RJ45 network cable interface, USB interface, SD card slot, multi-functional digital output interface, HDMI interface, D-type power supply interface, and 3.5mm audio output port on the left.

Game weapon Cherry black axis mechanical keyboard

All friends who often play operation games know Cherry's black axis. Its biggest feature is its short trigger key range, strong knocking force, straight up and down, quick response, and the feeling of playing games with the black axis is happy and anti fabrication! Pro+'s solid metal frame is combined with the black axis mechanical keyboard, which can be said to be a combination of strength and strength. Although the keyboard host is thick as a whole, it is very comfortable to start to hit the keyboard. However, after a long game, the fingers and wrists will still feel tired, which is related to the characteristics of the black axis keyboard that requires a lot of force to hit.

Android desktop host -- there is still a long way to go to replace PC

In fact, if you just use the mechanical keyboard to play games, there are hundreds of good products on the market. The user group of oneboard pro+should pay more attention to its other major feature - Android host! Indeed, by connecting the host computer to the display through the attached connection cable, the system can be started to enter the desktop at a speed of about 28 seconds, which is equivalent to the startup speed of Android phones, tablets and other products. The One os interface customized by "Zhiku" for oneboard is very similar to Win7. There is an application key on the left side of the taskbar at the bottom. When you open a single or multiple applications, The current running task will be displayed on the taskbar like Windows. The desktop can add application shortcuts and Android widgets, and the notification bar of the system will be displayed on the bottom right. This UI layout is the combination of Android tablet and Windows.

One os It is deeply optimized on the basis of Android 4.4.2, and the system is smooth. Unfortunately, there is no Android 5.0 version at present, and some of the latest Android features cannot be played out. Pro+uses a quad core 1.8GHz Ruixin micro RK3288 CPU, The combination of 2G storage+16G memory, the RK3288 of Ruixin Micro is the flagship product launched in 2014, which is characterized by supporting hard solution of H.265 encoding and 4K video, which is also the reason why many TV box manufacturers choose. In the actual experience, there is really no jam and delay when playing online video through video applications (regardless of network factors), and the system can be set manually Automatic adjustment of various screen sizes, ranging from a 20 inch PC monitor to a 42 inch ordinary LCD TV, Oneboard Pro+can handle it easily. Let's run around with Anthare.

From the score, it is only one step away from last year's Samsung flagship Note4, and it is analyzed based on the product price, Pro+is still very competitive. The key is to see how the system is optimized. We downloaded some applications and games from the application store of One OS, and most of the experience is good. Some games support keyboard hotkey control. In addition, we can also define them separately through the Universal Control plug-in of One OS, and simulate the control of mobile games according to personal habits.

However, in the actual experience, some applications will flash back and crash, even "Weibo" and "Office" also happen from time to time. It seems that "Zhiku" still needs to constantly optimize the system.

Oneboard Pro+ It can run at the same time with the PC, and connect to the PC through the host's own connection line. If you need to use One os, just click the "Tai Chi key" on the upper right corner of the keyboard to switch from the Windows interface to One os, which is very simple and convenient. I installed WeChat in Pro+, and when you need to make a long speech in the group, you can switch to it and hit it with a bang, It feels great to take one as ten! In addition, it is also excellent to use Pro+to hang up in Android games. Hanging up 24 hours is not a dream, and you don't need to worry about the problem of mobile phone power consumption anymore!

After a period of use experience, I felt that this hybrid product of "Zhiku" was really creative. Android open source brought us more ways to play, but it also brought some problems, such as compatibility, fitness, etc, If Oneboard pro+wants to occupy a place in the market segment, it needs to develop more unique applications to enable it to have more functions. The problems that were solved only by PC in the past can also be well completed through pro+, which is the direction of "smart cool". In addition, I hope that the official can also launch other types of products, such as the mainframe with red axis and green axis, which is a good news for long-term codeword friends! It can be predicted that in the future, PC hosts will mainly provide more professional services, such as professional image and video processing, large-scale games, etc., while other non professional work and entertainment such as ordinary audio and video playback, social applications, etc. will be completed by other terminals. The market will continue to be subdivided. Let's welcome the arrival of a new era!
