Black Lord's product naming has always been very regular, but the ID design style is very different, just like the previous K690T, who can think of the design inspiration of this keyboard from the old typewriter. In the same way, the latest K840T three-mode mechanical keyboard has changed the image of "hard and straight" before, walking up the cute style of the younger female group, and its base is also ingeniously wrapped in leather, which is so special in front of the cookie-cutter plastic shell.
Only a USB receiver and a 1.8M long cable are included inside the package
K840T three-mode mechanical keyboard with 84 matching, there are sea salt lemon green and white peach mousse two colors, the first impression is fresh and elegant, equipped with keycaps made of four colors, the upper cover and bottom shell also with the keycaps to do visual unified processing, large R angle, do not cut hands. In terms of details, the K840T uses a metal panel, and the surface is sprayed with theme colors, which feels a bit of skin-like texture. The upper cover edge has a highlight chamfer and two LED perforations are made in the upper right corner. Due to the suspension shaft body design, these two indicator lights are most likely to be blocked by keycaps under normal sitting posture.
The leather base is quite a finishing touch, the surface has obvious texture, the texture is different from the common frosted shell, the specific performance is rougher, the texture feedback is clearer, and the resistance to dirt really needs to be tested by time. The bottom is also adhering to minimalism, only 4 round rubber feet and power switches, and even the nameplate is attached. Because it is a fixed rubber foot pad, it is impossible to adjust the height and fix the inclination angle.
K840T's ABS round keycap is very distinctive, with an oil spray coating, very smooth, warm feel, and not easy to stain fingerprints. The color scheme is very novel, made up of low-contrast 4-color keycaps, the arrangement looks irregular, and even 3 colors are used between peers. This set of flat-breasted keycaps has no gradient and a slightly concave surface, but the curvature perception is not as good as the common OEM keycaps. In practice, due to the relatively close distance between the keycaps and the keycaps, there will be occasional mis-touches, which still needs attention. The radium character is marked with general key combination related functions, and unexpectedly, the keyboard also has a game mode, which turns on local lights through FN+1 to 8 (FN+9/10 is a custom mode). Wireless connection switching is achieved by keys such as FN+Home/PgUp/PgDn, and the multimedia key combination with a very high application rate is placed in the F area, which is intuitive and user-friendly.
Whether it is sea salt lemon green or white peach mousse, you can choose a high special green shaft or a red shaft, corresponding to the two feels of paragraph and linear, wall shaft core, play a certain role in dustproof. The big key bottom is unexpectedly crisp, no meat, and the fly in the ointment is a little tightrope sound. I have to mention that the shaft body of K840T is built into the bottom of the panel, one is that the shaft cannot be changed, and the other is that there are certain requirements for replacing the keycaps, and the common keycaps are incompatible with K840T because the chrysanthemum column is too short.
Keyboard built-in 1500mAh battery, personal habits of the highest brightness can be used for more than two days a day, if you change to Bluetooth mode, reduce the brightness of the light or even turn off the light, insist on three or four days should be no problem. There is a response time of about 2 seconds at boot time, and then it will connect to the device without delay.
K840T only has practical white light, can switch a variety of lighting effects through FN + PrtSc, because the keyboard is on the lamp position, can not fully take into account some of the keycaps with FN function annotation.
This K840T three-mode keyboard costs 369 yuan, starting from the value, the maverick color mixing style keycap with the leather base has formed a huge differentiation in the 84 matching products. More importantly, the K840T has not forgotten to do its job in keycaps and shaft body feel, which is both attractive and practical.
