We are very lucky to get this opportunity to experience Rado MXX mechanical keyboard. Thanks to Lei Feng.com!

When it comes to the "aristocrat" in the keyboard -- the development of mechanical keyboard can be said to be ups and downs. I remember that the keyboard with my first 586 multimedia computer in the 1990s was large and heavy (accidentally exposed my age), and the milky white appearance clicked when pressed down (this is the mechanical key disk). At that time, the mouse matched with it was a two button mouse with a rubber ball, Slowly, large and heavy keyboards are gradually replaced by thin and light film and capacitive keyboards. Who would have thought that with the gradual prosperity of the e-sports market, the nearly disappeared mechanical keyboards have killed a comeback with excellent hand feel, cool appearance and other factors, firmly standing in the high-end market.

Raduto is a well-known brand of peripherals in China, mainly including mouse, mouse pad and other PC peripheral products. This experience of "MXX" is the second mechanical keyboard product launched by Raduto. Compared with the first "MT", 87 key design and small and portable appearance are the biggest characteristics. Let's take a closer look at "MXX".

There is nothing special about the MXX package. The logo of the green shaft is very eye-catching, and the performance and parameters of the keyboard are printed on the back.

List of product accessories

Rado MXX has four colors: gray, blue, red and white. The gray version is the most low-key one (I have this one). The brushed aluminum alloy is covered with a faint metallic luster, and 87 keys float above. The almost endless design makes the keyboard look very small; The "MXX" sign above the right direction key lights up after power on, which is very eye-catching.

The MXX keyboard is slightly higher than the ordinary keyboard. The two sides are not straight up and down like cliffs, but adopt a trapezoidal design, which makes people feel very calm. The chrome plated "Raoto" nameplate here does not violate the sense of harmony, and everything is so natural.

In order to conform to ergonomics, Rado raised the rear of MXX, and designed the height and tilt angle of each row of keys separately, so that fingers can easily reach the far end F shortcut key, and the wrist can maintain a relatively comfortable posture when typing for a long time, which is commendable.

The bottom two sides are equipped with long strip feet, which are very solid compared with the four corner point feet. They are placed stably on the wooden table or smooth glass table. Even when players are excited, they will not easily push the keyboard away from its original position.

In consideration of portability, MXX adopts the design of separating keys from wires, so it can be carried out in a bag without fear of damaging wires; The gold-plated USB interface looks high-end, and the flexibility of the braided cable is also good. The length of about 1.8 meters is enough to connect to the USB interface on the back of the chassis.

As a mechanical keyboard, it is common to change the key cap. The translucent fluorescent key puller attached to the package is very beautiful, but the collet is slightly soft. Rough people like me are worried about folding it in cold winter.

The drive free design of MXX mechanical keyboard allows you to connect to the computer and "snap" it. The top row of F key has a shortcut, which can directly call out the calculator in the win system, and perform volume adjustment, fast forward and fast backward, play pause and other operations, which is easier to use.

"Light effect" has always been the symbol of mechanical keyboard, and this MXX is no exception. Although there is no colorful light effect, the design of Shan Liang is very cool, MXX supports six effect modes: wave, ripple, breath, tracking, six grid and constant light. The brightness and flashing speed of the light are adjusted in five gears. You can find the effect that suits you no matter in the day or at night. In addition, MXX also supports user-defined light effect modes, and you can set which keys are always on or off.

Only video can fully show the light effect of MXX mechanical keyboard, and a light effect demonstration of 2 minutes and 30 seconds.

My gray MXX uses Jiadalong green shaft, which is also called G-shaft. It is one of the shaft bodies with high cost performance among domestic shafts. According to the color, the type of shaft body should be from Cherry, the leader of the mechanical keyboard, The Jiada Long Green Axis (in fact, it is blue in my opinion) has a very clear sense of paragraphs. It can be triggered by pressing down about 1/3 of the position. The rebound force is moderate, the speed is fast, and it is very close to the hand. The sound is crisp without stuffiness, and the words can be printed "Pa Pa Pa"! Since I have not experienced other Jiadalong shafts yet, I am not sure about the structure and mode of other shafts for the time being, so I will try again later.

In front of the green axis is the LED light bulb. The light is projected through the letter area of the key shell. Watching the bright light emerge at night, the dry (ku) and dry (bi) codeword work has become a kind of enjoyment!

Since they have started to take off, why not take off all of them! Unplug all 87 keys to see what it is like.

Finally, let's talk about the experience of using the Rado MXX mechanical keyboard. After about 10 days of use, the keyboard is generally high. If you use it on a high desktop, the wrist will fold upward. After a long time, you will feel uncomfortable. If the desktop height is appropriate, or it is used on the key tray bracket, there will be no problem (small suggestion: you can use it with a palm rest); When I removed the key caps, I could feel that the removal force of individual key caps was uneven (three or four key caps were tight or loose). This should be a quality control problem of individual key cap slotting. Although it did not affect the use at all, it is recommended to strengthen this aspect; In addition, the 87 key position design of MXX highlights the characteristics of light weight and easy portability. If it is placed directly in the backpack, it may scratch and scratch the key cap. Would it be better if it could be equipped with a storage soft shell in the package to protect the keyboard? In the whole mechanical keyboard market, the price of MXX is very cost-effective. If you and I are constantly coding, then as an object to touch every day, be good to yourself, yes!

Hmm, well, I admit that I have fallen in love with the light effect of MXX (like ripples most), the pleasant touch when knocking, and the rhythmic "slap" sound every day when I carry MXX from home to work, which not only pleases me, but also welcomes the admiration of beautiful colleagues from time to time~!
