/[Preface]/

▲ Keyboard is an input device. Without it, office work, learning, social interaction and entertainment are basically impossible. For programmers, editors and other professions, it is not only a medium of communication with computers, but also a livelihood.

At the beginning of the 21st century, the household membrane keyboard, with its novel and excellent shape, small and light, low cost, low noise, strong sealing and other advantages, has won the favor of many consumers, occupied a large market, and quickly replaced the position of mechanical keyboard. Until recent years, people paid more and more attention to the feel of the keyboard. This pattern, which lasted for more than ten years, was gradually broken. Of course, just having a pleasant and incisive operating experience is not enough to return the mechanical keyboard to its former dominance. Factors such as shaft diversification, price nationalization and appearance fashion are also important.

In recent years, Raduto, which is famous for making mouse pads, has also entered the mechanical keyboard market and launched MXX series mechanical keyboards. It shows us that mechanical keyboards can also be so "domineering and leaky" with its cool shape. I am lucky to be here@ Love to play computer games We won the preemptive experience qualification of Rado MXX Limited Edition (Gold Label) Flaming Red Backlit Game Mechanical Keyboard. Now let me take you to experience this high profile Gateron axis mechanical keyboard.

/[Packaging]/

▲ The delivery time was delayed because the red paint was not in place on time. In this regard, the manufacturer of Radium Tinto sent a Radium Tinto H1X mouse pad to thank the experiencers for their understanding and support, and the service was of a very high standard. The gold label limited edition uses the out of print fluorescent yellow package shown in the above figure, and the physical rendering on the package is the classic Rado MXX deep space gray metal wiredrawing mechanical keyboard. Would it be better if it was replaced with a corresponding product (Flaming Red Edition)?

▲ On the back of the package is a series of introduction, product and manufacturer information, two-dimensional code, etc.

◊ [Unpacking, accessories] ∨

▲ Raeto MXX mechanical keyboard adopts double-layer packaging design, the outer packaging adopts sliding design, the inner packaging is pure black, and the flip button design is adopted. The inner package has a certain thickness, which is convenient for stacking and makes the keyboard Not vulnerable to external damage There is also a transparent plastic dust cover inside the package to ensure the cleanness of the keyboard.

▲ Radium MXX mechanical keyboard The accessories include 1.8m separate gold plated USB braided connection cable, binding tape, fluorescent orange acrylic key puller, product user guide, and Rado product atlas.

 [Appearance, details] ∨

▲ This is the first mechanical keyboard that the author has seen with his own eyes. It is not a simple painting process. It is said that in order to successfully launch the magnesium aluminum alloy paint version of the mechanical keyboard, the Rado technical team has continued to explore and try for five months, scrapping 7000+pieces of aluminum plates, overcoming the technical difficulties of dirty spots, foreign matters, sagging, sand holes, pinholes, dust spots, uneven paint, referring to the process flow of Porsche sports car paint and using automotive paint. Even so, the yield of baking varnish aluminum plate after mass production is only 30%! There are still many processes that need manual creation, review and inspection. This is enough to make people look forward to!

▲ The number of keys on the Rado MXX series mechanical keyboard is 87. The limited edition uses the key cap with radian on the lower edge, while the common edition cancels the radian on the lower edge. The official size of the keyboard is 385 × 124 × 44mm, which is highly portable, but the key spacing is small, so it is easy to enter errors when hitting the keyboard.

▲ The fourth generation skin like coating transparent key cap is adopted, 12 layers of spray oil resistant, Grade 6H scratch resistant. It has a good touch and is not easy to slide keys. Color is Our most common white characters on a black background are clear and eye-catching. The disadvantage is that it is easy to get the obvious fingerprint, which affects the visual effect.

▲ There is MXX on the top of the direction key, and there are three indicator lights on the left. C, S, and G are in Caps, Scroll, and Games states respectively. You can also find that the keyboard paint is bright and not easy to scratch. What do you think?

▲ The two sides of the keyboard are equipped with a laser expansion sign, which is also one of the obvious signs to distinguish the limited edition of the gold standard from the ordinary edition of the silver standard. The workmanship is excellent and delicate.

▲ The back of the keyboard is made of common plastic support plate, which has a frosted texture. Inevitably It is easy to accumulate dust in the air, but it can be quickly cleaned with a dry paper towel or dry rag.

▲ There is a fixed elevation between the keyboard and the horizontal plane. Adapt to the sitting posture of human body, bringing comfortable and convenient input experience. Anti slip strips are set at the bottom of the supports at both ends, and the friction coefficient is large enough to prevent displacement.

▲ It can be seen from the bottom label Radium MXX series mechanical keyboard Rated voltage 5V, rated current 150mA. At the same time, in order to increase the friction in the front and rear directions, a anti-skid belt is also set at the label.

∨ [Shaft body] ∨

▲ Because Cherry had stopped selling Chinese brand computers the year before last All MX mechanical shafts of mechanical keyboards are supplied, while Rado MXX series mechanical keyboards use customized Gateron mechanical shafts. perhaps For Jiadalong shaft Many ordinary players are unfamiliar , then it is one of the domestic shafts, It is characterized by dustproof design, which some players call dustproof shaft. Because of the inexplicable relationship with A, it is also called A axis. Of course, because its name is Gateron The author prefers to call it the G axis.

▲ Radium MXX Limited Edition (Gold Label ）Flaming red The shaft body of the mechanical keyboard uses G87 red shaft. Those who have known about the mechanical keyboard should know that the red shaft mechanical keyboard has no sense of paragraph when striking. It is straight up and down, and the trigger key distance is 1.5mm. It is easier to strike, which can give good consideration to the use needs of games and typing. It can code characters for a long time author There is no obvious joint fatigue Knocking, tactile and even I can't feel it There is a clear difference between the C-axis and the C-axis, which can only match the service life. Transparent plastic is used as the fixed support of shaft body, which is opposite to black opaque plastic As for the support, it is more cool and fashionable, and also has high light transmittance, which enhances the visibility of LED lights Perceptual effect.

▄ [Lamp effect, function] ∨

▲ The author believes that A good place for Rado MXX series mechanical keyboard is Key wire separation and anti insertion anti guide groove design are adopted. It's a good way to avoid The cable can avoid irreversible deformation due to excessive twisting, which may cause various problems due to poor contact. At the same time, it is more convenient to replace the cable without disassembling the keyboard shell. The 1.8m gold plated USB braided connection cable can meet the needs of most daily use. If the length is too long, the author suggests that it be rolled with a binding tape to prevent accidents.

▲ Radium MXX series mechanical keys The disk is connected by USB interface, compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 3.0, and powered by USB. It supports Windows 10/8.1/8/7/Vista/XP and MAC systems, but Apple does not support multimedia Shortcut keys can also be used to set macros and customize keys without driver. With on-board memory, Xiaobai can play with the keyboard without losing memory when power is off.

▲ The Rado MXX series mechanical keyboard is equipped with 15 multimedia function keys, Let's look at a paragraph first The video of light effect can be adjusted by keyboard combination, Fn+F10 Select preset light mode/custom light mode Fn+F11~F12 adjust backlight brightness Fn+Page Up/, age Down switch preset light mode Fn+Delete Edit backlight Fn+↑/↓ Adjust the preset light effect speed Fn+L switch the "MXX" logo light to breathe/stay on/off Fn+N edit macro Fn+M Customize key functions. As can be seen, Rado MXX Limited Edition (Gold Label) Flaming Red Backlit Game Machine The keyboard backlight group is a pure white LED light, which can also be clearly seen in a dim environment, and emits the visual effect of aggressive side leakage.

▲ In addition, Fn+F1 Open calculator Fn+F2~F4 volume adjustment Fn+F5 Turn on my computer Fn+F6~F8 multimedia control Fn+F9 game mode, lock the win key and switch the desktop shortcut key, and the indicator light G lights up, which meets the daily needs of some users for quick multimedia operations.

/[Key punching detection and experience]/

▼ It is said that Radium MXX series mechanical keyboard With the 87 key full key anti-collision design and 1ms response speed, the author is very curious about this. How many keys can be pressed without conflict?

▲ After some experiments by the author, it is found that When the number of keys exceeds a certain number, there will still be a small number of keystrokes, but rest assured, who will press this button in daily use? Unless you think ten fingers are not enough, you should also use your toes. So, I am quite satisfied with the non impact design of this mechanical keyboard and its fast response speed, which is really a good news for gamers.

▲ Keyboard body Cable not included Weighing about 650g, it is a relatively light and compact model in the mechanical keyboard market. It can be put into a smaller backpack, and can be carried with the bag in outdoor office. Of course, it is not a heavyweight model compared with the membrane keyboard, so there must be a choice.

/[Summary]/

★ On the other hand, Cherry no longer For Chinese brand computers Mechanical keyboard supply All MX mechanical shafts There are not only negative effects, because this has promoted the growth and improvement of domestic brand mechanical shafts. As we all know, the most obvious advantage of domestic shaft is its price, just like this Radium The official price of MXX Limited Edition (Gold Label) Flaming Red Backlit Game Mechanical Keyboard is 349 yuan, which is a big discount to the price of the original shaft mechanical keyboard. At the same time, after some experience, the author believes that Jiadalong Axis is similar to Cherry in touch and sound. Unless you are a senior player, it is difficult to distinguish male from female. The author has already felt that in the near future, both the "national axis" and the "national football" can compete for a seat in the world.
