I use the keyboard most every day, typing and playing games with it every day. I don't know when the mechanical keyboard became popular. The mechanical keyboard has a good feel, quick response and durability. A few months ago, I got a tea shaft keyboard of a certain brand, which is very comfortable to use, and I can't stop using it. But what I want to say here is this titanium TKM610 gunsmith. Tidu is an e-sports peripheral brand founded by SKY (Li Xiaofeng), the first person in China's competitive sports. On September 23, Titanium released a host, three mechanical keyboards, and a smart game machine cooperated with Tencent. Titan Gunsmith TKM610 mechanical keyboard is one of them. Now let's begin to experience it!

packing

In terms of packaging appearance design, Tidu Gunsmith TKM610 maintains a strong e-sports style. The black background is printed with the effect picture of Tidu Gunsmith TKM610, plus the brand logo and product model. The Cherry MX axis on the package is more valuable. The Cherry axis imported from Germany makes the product more high-end in an instant (most users familiar with mechanical keyboards should know the position of Cherry axis in the mechanical keyboard industry).

Open the inner packaging of the firearm division and you can see that the keyboard is wrapped in a plastic bag, which can reduce the friction between the keyboard and the packaging and play a protective and dust-proof role.

There is only one user guide (manual) for the accessories of Tidu Gunsmith TKM610, which is too little compared with the mechanical keyboard at the same price in the current market.

appearance

The biggest feature of the appearance of the gunsmith is the military camouflage appearance, which has a distinct personality. This may be the origin of the name "Gunsmith". Green, white and grey camouflage spraying, well, I admit I can't tell what camouflage is. But I think this should have an attraction for military enthusiasts. I? It's average, but I think the painting is very personalized.

The size of the firearm division is 380 × 150 × 40mm, with a built-in steel plate counterweight and a weight of about 950g, which is very useful.

I am used to using 104 or 108 full-size keyboards at ordinary times. When I started using them, it always seemed that something was missing. Gunsmith adopted the rare 97 key design. Although it is a 97 key keyboard, the firearm division has many key functions. The fireman combined the keys in the editing area and the number area, and switched the key functions through "NUM LOCK". This design has little impact on game users, because they seldom use the keys in the editing area. At the same time, it can reduce the width of the keyboard and reserve more space for the mouse.

The bottom design of the gunsmith is very careful. The two-part foot support and a small slope chassis make typing feel very comfortable. If there is a keyboard holder, it will be more perfect.

The gunsmith also designed three outlet slots at different positions at the bottom, which can meet the needs of different players for desktop layout. The whole keyboard is equipped with multiple rubber anti-skid feet and steel plate counterweight, which makes the overall anti-skid effect of the keyboard quite good.

The top of the gunsmith's support foot is also equipped with anti-skid rubber, and the anti-skid effect is also excellent when the support foot is opened. There is a gunman's reset hole hidden under the left support foot. If you want to restore the factory settings, just poke the hole with a small needle.

Gunsmith's Only ordinary rubber thread is used as the wire material, and the handle is slightly hard. The popular nylon braid is not used, which is a little disappointing. The length of the cable is about 1.8m, which is enough for most users. Unfortunately, the USB plug is not gold-plated, so I'm sorry for the word "limited edition"!

According to the different needs of users, the gunsmith has set two different modes: standard and game. The FN+S key enters the standard mode: the standard 6 key has no impact, the left and right WIN keys are on, the macro recording/playing function is off, and the light switching mode is off; Enter the game mode by pressing the FN+G key: the full key does not flush, the left and right WIN keys are turned off (the FN+right WIN key can be turned on/off), the macro recording/playing function is turned on, and the light switching mode is turned on. Press and hold the FN key for 3 seconds to query the current mode status, and the S key or G key will flash. (The above quoted some official statements Ming). It is very convenient to switch between the standard mode when working and the game when playing.

gun The mechanic integrates the edit key area and the number key area, and can use the edit key normally when the number key area is closed (Num key is closed). However, whether the numeric keypad area is turned on or not does not affect the use of FN key combinations, such as: FN+1 volume reduction; FN+3 mute key; FN+4 volume increases; FN+5 light recording on/off; FN+* or - keys increase or decrease the light brightness; FN+7、 8. 9 corresponds to light mode 1, mode 2 and mode 3 respectively in light mode. There are many functions and some are complex. It is difficult for non e-sports players like me to learn. I suggest that Titania add a driver software to make the graphical settings more user-friendly and friendly.

firearms division The function key area of is designed very closely. In addition to the common F1~F12, there are five common editing function keys that rise to the same column of function keys. Del key, Ins key, PrtSc key, ScrLk key, PauBrk key, these five keys are very common for both office users and game users, and this location is also very convenient to use.

Key cap shaft body

Gunsmith keycap adopts ABS skin coating radium carving keycap. The initial feel is really great, the touch is exquisite and comfortable, and the anti-skid effect is excellent. However, the oiling index of this kind of key cap is high, and it won't take long for the key cap to become shiny. Fortunately, it is very convenient to remove and clean the key cap of the mechanical keyboard.

The shaft body of the gunsmith adopts the Cherry MX shaft body made in Germany, and the whole keyboard has a high hand consistency. The big key adopts the popular satellite shaft design. The hand feel is adjusted fairly well, and it is also very crisp to hit (this one is green shaft in my hand).  

lighting

In terms of lighting, the gunsmith uses the classic red backlight! The lighting effect can be adjusted by four levels of brightness, which can basically meet the needs of different people in different periods of time. At the same time, the fireman's light can also be customized, However, setting is difficult for beginners. Well, I admit I haven't studied, and I'm still groping.

Game experience

In fact, I am a professional teammate and a rookie, so I let the beauty next door play with a mechanic for several rounds. The effect is good, the beauty said, the voice is very clear, it feels good to use it for a long time No win. Well, I seem to feel cheated.

summary

The camouflage shell and the humanized 92 key arrangement make this mechanical keyboard look small and beautiful. The original Cherry axis also guarantees the feel of this keyboard. However, the price of this keyboard may be a little high. At the price of 699 yuan, the competitiveness is not very obvious, and mold workmanship may need more work.
