| Dahl has always been a good peripheral manufacturer in China. As a self-designed Wrangler mouse, I have left a deep impression on everyone. On the keyboard side, there are also many good products, wireless dual-mode thin office keyboard. Etc. And what we got today is the Darwin EK925 mechanical keyboard. This keyboard is made by Darwin's self-designed mechanic mold + Darwin's autonomous shaft. The biggest highlight is the RGB lighting, not only the keyboard. The shaft has RGB lighting, and the RGB ambient light is added around the keyboard. Moreover, starting from this keyboard, the DRS lighting linkage system is introduced in the Darwin peripheral ecology, and the full set of Darwin peripherals will be used in the future. The lighting linkage function is blessed.  Package appearance overview   The outer box of Darwin EK925 RGB mechanical keyboard (hereinafter referred to as EK925) adopts Darwin's iconic orange + black color scheme. The front of the box is printed with Darwin's brand LOGO, keyboard model and product hard photo. The back of the box It shows some of the characteristics of the keyboard and so on.  In addition to the keyboard body and quick start guide manual and Darwin product introduction card, it is very convenient.  The EK925 adopts the master mold designed by Darwin, which is a 104-key standard key + 4 function keys. The overall size is 443mm × 134mm × 35mm. We will find that the EK925 is similar to the previous EK820, also the metal panel. +CNC high-cut trimming, the look is simple.  On the bottom of the keyboard, the ABS material is treated with a matte process, and a three-way cable slot is embedded in the bottom surface to facilitate the wire alignment of the keyboard. The legs can also allow the keyboard to have more angle options. Detail display  The surface of the keyboard is made of aluminum alloy metal panel, the surface is frosted and coated, and CNC high-cut trimming is carried out around. The whole keyboard is full of metal atmosphere, and the touch is very good.  The keyboard is equipped with two first-level adjustment feet, and rubber feet on the bottom to ensure the grip of the keyboard. In addition, there are 4 long-shaped pads on the bottom of the keyboard, which can be placed on the desktop to ensure the keyboard. With anti-slip effect.   In terms of wire, the keyboard is equipped with a rubber wire with a length of about 180cm. The flexibility of the wire is quite good, and the addition of the gold-plated plug and the external anti-static magnetic ring also maximizes the life of the wire and the stability of data transmission, ensuring the stability. Keyboard experience.    The Darwin EK925 keyboard keycap uses the ABS two-color injection molding process, which is quite good in light transmission. The shaft body adopts Darwin's autonomous shaft body, which is similar in parameters to the cherry shaft body. What we are currently getting is Darwin black axis version, using the keystrokes and feedback of the feel button has a very similar feel to the cherry shaft. The large key position uses the balance bar design, the key position stability is still guaranteed.  Of course, the game keyboard full key without punch is also an essential part. Lighting effects and DRS lighting linkage system  In addition to the RGB light on the keycap, the EK925 is surrounded by RGB light strips around the panel of the keyboard. The brightness and color performance are good performances. However, because the full light strip is used, the light is not softened. The good light is down, so we don't look directly at the light source. What we see is the light that scatters the light and the desktop map.  The upper right corner of the keyboard is equipped with 4 special buttons for light adjustment, which respectively correspond to the backlight color adjustment of the peripheral lights of the keyboard, the loop mode adjustment and the color adjustment of the keyboard button lights, and the loop mode adjustment. The upper area of the arrow keys sets a Darwin LOGO. This LOGO adopts a dot matrix design and is also consistent with Darwin's recent keyboard new products.  DRS (DAREU RGB SYSTEM) Darwin RGB lighting linkage system is a new peripheral concept introduced by Darwin in September 2018. It is also the first peripheral company in China to introduce this concept. The DRS system is not limited to the current mouse. Keyboards, earphones, mouse pads, and other computer peripheral products such as headphone holders, charging docks, etc., can be adapted to DRS. From October 2018, Darwin products with DRS logo will be RGB interoperable in the near future. In the first phase, DRS products will be specified, such as 925 mouse and 925 keyboard, 925 headphones, which can be RGB first. Light interaction. In the second stage, as long as you have DRS-tagged products, you can achieve RGB light interaction between them. This greatly increases the flexibility of users when purchasing products. In the third stage, DRS will also light with PC. Linkage, bring more shocking effects. PConline evaluation summary  The Darwin EK925 RGB mechanical keyboard achieves a good feel at the price of 299 yuan, and the performance of the spindle body is also quite good, and the display and lighting linkage in RGB lighting is rare at this price point, but at present, If you need to further adjust the lighting of the keyboard, you need to adapt the driver software. In general, this Darwin EK925 RGB mechanical keyboard can satisfy your yearning for RGB lighting peripherals on the basis of high cost performance. |
