DIY old driver demolished for you to see | See how Logitech lowered the mouse to 20 yuan

DIY old driver twentieth: This time we are ready to talk about entry into the mouse, many large manufacturers have tens of dollars in the introduction of the mouse for sale, in the office area this does not require too high performance, tens of dollars The mouse is indeed enough. The big brands rely on their mature industrial design, and then through the large scale effect is enough to reduce the cost to a very low position. We are ready to talk about how these big factories are reduced in the current period. The cost of the mouse. This is a small electric skateboard ride. Please take care not to fall.

'PConline DIY old driver'Logitech, a Swiss company that started with OEM, ODM OEM mouse, has now become the world's most famous supplier of computer peripheral equipment. Now it has businesses all over the world, radiating more than 140 countries and regions. His current position in the mouse industry No one company can shake it. Of course, as a famous brand, product forcing is also necessary, but in recent years it was found that Logitech actually lowered the price to 20 yuan on the entry product, and the most soothing is also the package mail.

In fact, with the development of the electronics industry, such as the mouse industry, the technology is continuously improving, and the cost is decreasing. Today's ultra-high-end mouse does have the status of excess performance. However, the IT industry is characterized by continuous innovation and can always find you new. The demand point, such as the emergence of mouse wireless charging mouse pad, makes it possible for the mouse to completely get rid of the wire bondage. So 2017 is the first year of a true wireless peripheral.

Although it is a low-priced mouse, Logitech's packaging is still good. However, since it is a low-cost entry mouse, it is naturally impossible to pack gift boxes. However, from the degree of packaging, it is indeed in line with the packaging of this price, to see the use of color plastic particles or the first-hand goods, after all, the international giant, the quality is still necessary.

Logitech is still a three-year warranty, indicating that Logitech is very confident in its products, and Logitech seems to have always maintained the principle of warranty only. At the same time, Tmall Electric City made a commitment to one-year warranty as long as non-human reasons. There are quality problems that are direct exchange operations.

The mouse actually has nothing to say. The twenty-odd yuan mouse actually has no special highlights other than the low price. But on the mouse of the m105, we see this pinkish color of the girls, which is what we have found so far. Many peripheral brands are actively exploring the women's market. Take the Valentine's Day Key Hat recently introduced by CHERRY, it is very biased towards girls. The earliest impression of peripherals is black and white gray, and a little bit of color is also a basic test. Blue and other cool colors, red e-colors and other colors, rare to compare the color of the girls to the color, Today's peripheral manufacturers are beginning to subdivide the market.

The whole back of the workmanship is structured as a whole, and since only the entry-entry mouse is used, this mouse's floor mat adopts a minimal design to meet the general operation requirements.

The entire mouse is fastened with only one screw and a snap, minimizing the complexity of the entire mold. This is also a common approach to mouse entry.

Actually, this mouse is more like a two-layer structure instead of the three-layer structure of a normal mouse. The entire upper and lower lids are integrally formed. The uppermost surface is only the left and right buttons. Generally, at this price, the middle mouse box is only used as a connection function. Divided into upper, middle, and lower levels because industrial design Need to consider the situation of injection molding. The difficulty of design may lead to the failure of injection molding. . And this body is formed upper because Because of Logitech's outstanding industrial design, the roller is placed directly in the upper case, simplifying the structure of the roller and reducing material back-up.

The mouse adopts an entry-level PCB board material, but the overall cutting and drilling are standardized, and the edge processing is not bad. Using single-sided cloth, single-sided wiring. Although slightly simpler, but the layout of the components is reasonable. The three microswitches are all from the Taiwanese manufacturer Himake. They have data indicating a service life of 3 million cycles. The touch is also very crisp, and there are not too many gaps with the major manufacturers we are familiar with.

The engine is the PAW3520DB, which is an entry-level optical engine that can effectively save costs. Although no specific data was found for this engine, this engine should be similar to the PAW3515. The PAW3315 can provide users with a maximum of 1600 DPI. The default is 1000DPI. For better control of the cost, Logitech did not design a DPI adjustment button for this mouse. The mouse has a DPI of 1000, but its engine allows it to be 1600DPI without interpolation.

If you do not understand the above model data does not matter, as long as know that Logitech is not equipped with this mouse is strong, but the conscience, in line with the configuration of the price, components are used on the components of quality assurance manufacturers.

We can compare the PCB board and components and find out why the Logitech m105's PCB board is so simple, but if I tell you that the blue PCB board has a mouse up to 400+, the m105 will not even have a fraction of the others. In fact, domestic and foreign manufacturers like Logitech will reduce packaging costs at this price point, rationally design to reduce the difficulty of processing, and reduce costs through production-scale effects, etc., and will never be performed on components and the user experience. reduce.

The entire plastic material for the upper and lower lids is also full of materials. It is not because of this is the introduction of the mouse to reduce the requirements, at least in my grip did not feel thin.

PConline evaluation room summary

If I don't say that this mouse was Logitech's work six years ago, does it mean that the appearance of this mouse is actually in line with the aesthetics of everyone? A mouse design is excellent, and the design can still not fall behind many years later. This will allow the mouse to be sold in the city for a long time. The scale effect will bring about continuous dilution of R&D and mold-opening costs, while increasing brand market share. And brand influence. Of course, this mouse also dropped from 59 yuan in 2012 to 29 yuan today. In fact, after dismantling, we discovered that such a mouse carries out quality assurance on key components such as components and components. Although it is not very strong but it meets the quality assurance component of this price point, it must not be less than absolutely. And to reduce the processing difficulty (in fact, mainly to reduce the processing difficulty), the cost reduction in the supply chain to reduce the material, the cost savings should also be saved as much as possible.

In fact, profitability is nothing more than increasing sales and reducing costs. According to conversations with industry insiders, domestic peripheral manufacturers are now also actively investing in research and development, from the design, from the supply chain, without sacrificing performance. To reduce the difficulty of processing as far as possible to reduce costs. Logitech as a mouse industry status is still unanimously recognized by the industry, the combination of soft and hard power is indeed very convincing.

In fact, when doing this, it's not just about this mouse, but I want to make it clear that the peripheral industry is in the right direction to reduce costs. There are also many people who told me that this is not similar to the Taobao 9.9 mouse. The same is true of the use. When the next issue, Fengjin talks to everyone about what I know about the 9.9-packed mouse. What is the low-end mouse industry chain?
