What is the difference between various mechanical keyboard axes?

Suppose you know what a mechanical keyboard is and read the article "What makes a mechanical keyboard good?", you may want to pick the axis of the mechanical keyboard.What are the axes of the mechanical keyboard?Let's take a look at the differences between the white axis, black axis, green axis, tea axis, and red axis of the mechanical keyboard. (In most cases, the "mechanical keyboard axis" in Long Live PC refers to the cherry MX axis .)

Differences between mechanical keyboard shafts (Overview)

Mechanical keyboard axis difference:

1. White axis
   The operation pressure is greater than that of the black axis.
   The paragraph feels better than the tea axis
   Discontinued
2. Black axis
   Operation pressure: 58.9g ± 14. 7g
   No paragraph sense
3. Qingzhou
   Operation pressure: 58.9g ± 14. 7g
   Touch pressure: 58.9g ± 19. 6g
   A good sense of paragraph
4. Tea axis
   Operation pressure: 44.1g ± 14. 7g
   Touch pressure: 54w.g ± 14. 7g
   Slight paragraph
5. Red axis
   Operation pressure 44.1g ± 14. 7g
   No paragraph sense

* Yellow axis-self-developed by leibai, with a pressure of 50 grams

PS: What is the paragraph style of the mechanical keyboard? This is very difficult to describe in words. If you scroll the scroll wheel slowly, you will feel that there is a scale slightly stuck, but you have a slight push, and it is very fast to roll over. The paragraph on the keyboard is similar to this one. It's easy to understand after using a mechanical keyboard with a paragraph.

Differences between mechanical and keyboard axes (details)

Note: the differences between the following mechanical and keyboard axes are widely accepted, but they do not feel the same when used because of their individual habits. For example, the black axis is regarded as the preferred mechanical keyboard axis for the game, but some people prefer to use it for typing.

Black axis: first choice for games

Black axis-Cherry's summer

Play games? Select black Axis! Black axis straight up and down, was recognized as the best choice for the game mechanical keyboard. The black axis mechanical keyboard will give the game a hearty feeling. Of course, the black axis can also be used for typing, but the black axis has a short trigger key, a large number of pressure grams, and it may be a little tired for a long time.

* The single-axis service life of the Black-axis mechanical keyboard is up to 50 million times (other mechanical keyboard axes are 20 million times ).

Qingzhou: a typing artifact

Spring of cherry

No matter the paragraph, click sound, or mechanical sense, the green axis is the strongest in the cherry axis. The blue axis represents the axis of the mechanical keyboard. Qingzhou has a strong sense of paragraph, which is an obstacle for games and is more suitable for typing than NLP. The voice is loud, the typing is crisp and refreshing, and it is as comfortable as spring.

* Long Live PC is typing these words with the cherry qingaxis.

* It is said that the music orchestra and the dance troupe players like Qingzhou. If the game is playing well, you will be able to hear the sound ......

Tea axis: Comprehensive Consideration

Tea axis-fall of cherry

The tea axis is considered to be in the middle of typing and gaming.

For the green axis, the section of the tea axis is much weaker; for the black axis, it is not straight up or down. This kind of experience is very easy for users to accept. The tea axis can be described as an office game. It is called the "Ten-purpose axis" and appropriate.

Red axis: long-time text input

Red axis can be seen as a lightweight black axis: The same as the black axis, straight up and down, but the acrylic number is smaller. The red axis is light in hand and can be used for gaming and typing.

White axis: Previous glory

White axis-Cherry winter

Some users refer to the white axis as the "Tighten tea axis", because it can feel a greater touch than the tea axis. The number of pressure grams on the white axis is large, which is more labor-intensive than the limit. The white axis has been discontinued and is more difficult to find in the market. (Red axis was launched after the White axis was discontinued)

Yellow axis: new axis Made in China

The yellow axis is a self-developed keyboard axis of leibai, with a life cycle of 50 million times. Leibai said that the yellow axis is a trigger, feel closer to the black axis, but lighter than the black axis. The advantage of the yellow axis is to break Cherry's monopoly and reduce the price.

What are the axes of the mechanical keyboard?

The reason why there are various mechanical keyboard axes is to allow users to find their own.

Applicability of various game axes:

• Black axis: Suitable for playing games and typing (not recommended if it is too weak)
• Qingzhou: the most suitable axis for typing
• Tea axis: supports both typing and gaming.
• Red axis: game, which is best suited for long-time typing except qingaxis
• White axis: a large number of text input workers
• Yellow axis: Game (now leibai V7 uses yellow axis)

Generally:

• PLAYERS: Black axis> tea axis> Red axis> green axis
• Office typing: Blue axis> Red axis> tea axis> black axis

Tip:

1. If you do not know what axis to buy, you will not be disappointed when you buy a green axis or a tea axis. The pressure on the black axis is high, and the red axis has no special features. The pressure on the white axis is even greater and it has been discontinued.
2. The shaft is not the only factor that determines the mechanical keyboard, but also the keyboard design. For example, if the F-key zone is very far away from the mechanical keyboard, it is not suitable for playing real-time strategic games, but it is very suitable for playing design and music. In addition, it is said that the 80% keyboard leaves more space for game operations and is more suitable for intense game movements.

Other special axes of cherr

Green axis: It is generally used for the Space key of the green axis keyboard. Like the green axis, it has the click sound and paragraph feeling.

Gray axis: generally used in addition to the green axis mechanical keyboard Space key, no paragraph sense, maximum pressure.

Strange axis: used for special switches.
