Mechanical storm is coming — SteelSeries 7GgamededicatedkeyboardEvaluation report
Remember to reviewIKARImouse, SPmouse padIt was mentioned when waiting for the product. Since the end of 2007, Steel has brewed a wave of new product birth storms covering almost all product types. Finally, the role transition from only producing a single product in the past to the current all-round manufacturer has been completely completed. In all fairness, before this new product storm,STEELIt was really silent for a long time. In this period when almost all manufacturers are stuck in the bottleneck of new product development, many people are beginning to doubt that STEEL, which has always been known for its creativity, has also entered a bottleneck period this time, and has even begun to lose its skills? Faced with this situation, STEEL successfully relieved everyone''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''s doubts with 4 new products with distinctive features and excellent performance.

1. Appearance
First, it is the outer packaging. To be honest, the first time I saw the packaging pictures circulating on the Internet, I was shocked, but after I actually got it, I was shocked again. Because its size is too big. Such a large volume has begun to give dealers a headache for transportation. The big 7G is printed on the left side of the box, typical STEEL packaging design style. The transparent part on the right allows consumers to see the appearance of the keyboard directly from the outside. Below, the various features of 7G are highlighted in the form of 9 headlines. They are:

9. Two-meter-long braided material cord and 4 joints(USB\PS2, audio\microphone)
The back of the package is a detailed feature introduction, and the content can refer to the front.
The design idea of ??the inner packaging is obviously to learn the lessons of transportation in the past 6G era. The left and right two styrofoams made according to the shape of the keyboard only fix the keyboard in the box, and because the keyboard is in a suspended state, even if it is barbaric Handling will hardly cause the keyboard to receive additional vibrations and bumps.
The shape of the styrofoam is made strictly in accordance with the shape of the keyboard + wrist rest, which greatly guarantees the safety of transportation.
It can be said that the details of this 7G are extremely well done. This can be seen from the distinguishing marks on the left and right styrofoam. The letter R in the picture means that the position where it wraps the keyboard should be on the right side inside the box.
Plus the full picture of the keyboard in the hand rest. The reason why the packaging volume of 7G is so huge is the “culprit”It can be said that this area is almost abnormal.
As a feature of 7G and one of the signs of STEEL mechanical keyboard, the design of this hand rest can be said to be original. First of all, it is not connected to the lower part of the keyboard through a buckle like a traditional keyboard hand rest. But ingeniously design the hand rest directly into the border of the keyboard, and it is split. The advantage of this design is that it provides users with a great deal of freedom. If you like a comfortable ergonomic hand rest, then the hand feel of this hand rest can fully meet your requirements. And if you like the narrow bezel and simple design that is popular nowadays, you can get a simple keyboard that is easy to carry directly by removing the palm rest.
Remove the 7G of the hand rest, the shape is very delicate.
7G adopts the standard US with American keys, which is also a familiar key setting for Chinese people. However, it should be mentioned that the ENTER key of 7G does not adopt the standard American-style one-font design. Instead, the configuration of Big ENTER is used. In this case, the backspace key will be smaller than normal.
7GshellA matte material with larger particles is used. Looking at the rough surface, it is easy to reminiscent of the surface of STEEL''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''s classic mouse pad SS.
The visual effect of the classic narrow-edge design is indeed excellent. In addition, an eye-catching STEEL logo appeared on the position of the Ω lemon bean INDOWS key. So what is this logo?
This key with the STEEL logo is actually one of the major features of 7G-multimedia function keys.
This key replaces the original position of the WIN key, and the function of the WIN key is also cancelled. Replaced by something likenotebookcomputerFunction like FN shortcut key. That is, special functions can be realized by pressing and holding the STEEL key while combining other function keys. It is precisely because of this design that 7G has become the first product with multimedia functions in mainstream mechanical keyboards.(JAKI can also be achieved through programming functions, but it is not a native function, so it cannot be regarded as the first)The usage is to hold down the STEEL key and press the six keys F1-F6 at the same time to realize different multimedia functions. F1 is the mute button, F2 is the volume down, F3 is the volume up, F4 is the audio orvideoFor the start and pause during playback, F5 means fast rewind, and F6 means fast forward.
Another feature of 7G is that it not only provides multimedia keys, but also provides 2 USB HUB ports and 2 external audio + microphone ports.
The original intention of setting up USB and audio interfaces should be to increase the convenience of keyboard use when players go out for training or competition. It can be said that this design is extremely considerate and saves players the trouble of moving the case or even drilling under the table to insert equipment. But judging from the number of connectors, if you use 7G in an Internet cafe, players will still have to face the trouble of plugging in equipment. This is because the connector part of 7G contains 4 different parts: USB connector, PS2 connector and two connectors for microphone and audio. So if you want to realize the function of USB HUB and front audio interface, you must plug in all four connectors-first of all, 7G has the function of full key conflict-free, but this function must be under the premise of PS2 interface It can be realized, so the preservation of the PS2 interface is particularly important. The second is the power supply problem of the USB HUB. If the HUB shares a USB interface with the entire keyboard, the HUB is prone to insufficient power supply. Therefore, STEEL abandoned the easy way to achieve conflict-free USB to PS2, and instead retained the dual USB and PS2 interfaces. To respond to different needs. Later, the audio 7G did not use the previously rumored built-in USBSound cardInstead of using a chip, the two audio connectors are used as extension cables, and the extended audio interface is integrated into the keyboard. This seems troublesome, but there are reasons. First, if the USB sound card chip shares a USB connector with the HUB, the problem of insufficient power supply will still occur. Second, if other USB devices are plugged into the HUB at the same time, the devices will have to reluctantly give up the built-in chip design. Instead, the extension cord solution was used, which was the second best option. In addition, it is unacceptable that the USB connector among the 4 connectors actually only bears the power supply task of the USB HUB. Therefore, after plugging in the USB connector separately, the keyboard will not work properly. In other words, 7G is not a USB and PS2 dual-purpose keyboard that everyone imagined, but a pure PS2 interface keyboard. In fairness, although the PS2 interface has many advantages such as stability and not occupying resources, compared with the hot-swappable function of USB, the PS2 keyboard that needs to be restarted is obviously inferior in convenience. This directly offsets the convenience brought by the rich front interface. Therefore, for players who want to use it in Internet cafes, the convenience of 7G can only be said to be worthless. Another thing that needs to be said is that although the convenience has not increased, it can be seen from the details of the connector that the workmanship of 7G is indeed luxurious enough.
The nameplate on the back clearly indicates various information about the keyboard and the manufacturer, including the serial number, official website, and place of origin.
The back of the hand rest is marked with a prominent font that the choice of hand rest material is ABS engineering plastic. The robustness is extremely reliable.
The supporting leg part is the big difference between 7G and the current mainstream mechanical keyboard. Different from the traditional design, 7G directly abandons the design of opening and closing supporting feet, and instead design the keyboard shell into a slope structure. And the middle value of the lifting angle of other keyboard opening support feet and flat keyboard is selected. The original intention of the design should be to consider the need for different players to support the existence of the foot and the different needs of the keyboard lifting angle. Compared with the keyboard with supporting feet, 7G will lose some degree of freedom of angle adjustment. However, the right and left lifting angle can increase the applicability of users with different needs. Which one is better depends on your own needs.
Four rubber-shaped oval anti-skid feet are set under the keyboard. From the actual use point of view, the anti-skid effect is relatively good.
The keycaps are made of sturdy ABS engineering plastics. Compared with the previous generation 6G keycap, the thickness has increased by about a quarter. It is full of texture in the hand, and the detail craftsmanship is in place. It can be seen from the picture that the workmanship of the 7G keycap is not inferior to the previous generation. Native keycap with good workmanship.
2. Basic knowledge
Earlier, the author repeatedly mentioned the term CHERRY micro-motion. I believe that experienced players who are familiar with mechanical keyboards have already understood this brand to the extent that they are precious. But for many new players who are new to mechanical keyboards, it may feel a little strange. Therefore, the author here adds a brief introduction to CHERRY''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''s MX series of micro-movements in a past article, so that new players can better understand the mechanical keyboard using CHERRY micro-movements and lay the foundation.
The so-called CHERRY keyboard refers to all products that use CHERRY’s famous MX series of micro-movements, including CHERRY’s original products. Although the company''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''s other micro-motion products are of excellent quality, they cannot be compared with the MX series micro-motion in terms of feel or classic level. So usually the CHERRY micro-movements mentioned in the discussion mostly refer to this series, rather than other series produced by CHERRY. Therefore, it is necessary to briefly introduce an important concept of MX series micro-motion. In CHERRY''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''s product system, the G80 series mechanical keyboard is sought after by enthusiasts, and the G80 series is popular because of the use of CHERRY''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''s proud MX series of micro-motion. This series of micro-movements can be said to condense the technical essence of CHERRY''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''s product research and development in the past 40 years, coupled with the Germanic''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''s almost harsh requirements for quality, has created this golden sign that is respected by keyboard enthusiasts all over the world. So what is so good about MX series micro-motion? The first is the feel. The MX series is divided into four shafts: green, tea, white, and black. The four kinds of micro-movements have their own unique feel. In contrast, the cookie-cutter feel of the traditional membrane keyboard cannot compete with the MX micro-motion at all. I believe that all users of mechanical keyboards will smile at this. The second is the exaggerated lifespan. The MX series micro-motion all use gold contacts. The major feature of this process is that it is not easy to oxidize and has a strong signal transmission performance. In addition, the precise mechanical structure and reasonable design make the life of fretting unimaginable. If calculated by the number of strokes, they areGreen axis20 million times,Tea shaft50 million times, black axis 5-60 million times, white axis 20 million times, and this data is only the life of a single micro-motion, CHERRY is guaranteed to reach 1 billion times for the entire keyboard.
This time, 7G adopts the popular black axis among gamers. The characteristic of the black axis is that it feels straight up and down without any sense of paragraph. I believe that players who are accustomed to traditional membrane keyboards will be a little uncomfortable when they first get started. But I believe that after adapting, you will discover the beauty of this feel. The black axis has a large pressure in grams, so you will feel a little tired when you get started. This also needs to be used.
3. Use articles
1. The touch of the keycap: The surface texture of the 7G keycap is much finer than that of the keyboard shell. The grain is moderate and the hand feel is very comfortable. Another point that needs to be mentioned is the 7G keycap font printing. The 7G font uses a laser filling method, which is characterized by its solidity much higher than that of traditional ink printing, so even if it is used for a long time, there will be no dropout problems. But the black keycap white laser font also has a flaw, that is, it is easy to change the color of the font under the influence of hand sweat. This is a common problem with all laser keycaps. What the author hasMicrosoftMultimedia and IBM8815 also have this problem. The solution is to wipe with a cotton swab dipped in a small amount of detergent.
2. Key position: The standard American key position certainly does not have the problem of adaptation. After the actual trial, you have to admire the designer''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''s unique ingenuity. First of all, the function of replacing the WIN key with the STEEL key can largely avoid the situation of exiting the game by accidentally pressing the WIN key in the game. Secondly, the multimedia operation mode that only works in combination can effectively reduce the risk of misoperation. It can be described as the best of both worlds. However, the slight disadvantage is that the adjustment interval of the volume keys is slightly larger and not delicate enough. For example, in CS, the sound is a bit loud, but after pressing it twice, the sound is much lower. Although it is acceptable, it is not the right volume. So if it can be adjusted more delicately, it will be complete.
3. Key drop:(Define reposts from previous articles)The so-called key drop concept is the height difference between each row of keys. This is the ergonomic design included in most keyboards that is not easily noticed. When it comes to ergonomic keyboards, the first thing that comes to mind is those ergonomic keyboards with keys arranged separately from the left and right between the number keys 6 and 7. In fact, this is only part of the ergonomics, and the other part is the height difference between the keys. . The height difference between these keys is not made randomly, but the keyboard R&D designer has gone through thousands of times, tens of thousands of tests, simulations, and combined with user feedback after use. The key height arrangement designed through such a complicated program is to add more comfort to the user, so this is the basic and considerate ergonomic design. From the picture, 7G obviously also adopted this design.
4. Key conflict: As mentioned earlier, 7G has a full-key conflict-free function. Therefore, for games that are often plagued by conflicts such as CS and Jin orchestra, the emergence of conflict-free technology can be said to be a great boon.
5. Experience: In games that are more sensitive to key conflicts such as CS, Jin Orchestra and King of Fighting, 7G''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''s conflict-free features are extremely prominent. In WAR3, because the F series keypad is closer to the numeric keypad, it is very convenient for heroes to operate. However, it is worth noting that due to the large number of grams of pressure on the black axis, such as the Caps Lock, Shift, and Ctrl keys(Little finger keypad)The little finger will feel tired due to prolonged use. This is especially true for beginners. But after adapting, it will be greatly improved. What is depressing is the slower data transmission speed of the USB HUB interface. It is difficult to understand why STEEL still insists on using the 1.1 specification USB interface in this period when the 2.0 specification has been fully popularized. This is undoubtedly an added obstacle to the originally extremely convenient HUB.
Advantages: exquisite workmanship, powerful performance, luxurious materials, and extremely detailed processing. The hand feel is excellent, and the multimedia function is the highlight.
Disadvantages: The connector is more cumbersome, which deviates from the original design that emphasizes portability. The price is too high, the laser keycap font is easy to change color, and the USB1.1 interface is a big pity.
