Mechanical keyboard, so many axes, which one should you choose? On mechanicalkeyboards.com (mechanical keyboard. com) in the United States, the ratings of mechanical keyboard users on each axle body are counted. The user will rate the used shaft body from the three perspectives of “game”, “typing” and “comprehensive”.
Today we will focus on Cherry’s seven axes (the gray axis is not in the statistics). Before comparing the values, let’s see how many people have scored. This group of data can reflect the popularity of the axle body from the side. The green axis, tea axis and red axis were scored by 1019, 927 and 801 people respectively, which are also the three most popular axes. It is interesting to note that the Red Axis was only introduced to the market in 2008. Compared with other axes, it is a very young mechanical axis, but it can be quickly accepted by players. This has something to do with the rapidly growing game market.
Now that we talk about the game market, let’s take a look at the mechanical axis suitable for the game. In the game, there are 4 kinds of axes that have obtained more than 8 points. They are red axis 8.78, white axis 8.42, tea axis 8.37 and black axis 8.20 respectively. The high score of the red axis is not surprising. For the red axis, typical user evaluations are as follows:
-Games: 9, typing: 7, synthesis: 8. It is most suitable for my game axis, especially for those games that require double click operation and hand speed. As for typing, it is easy to make mistakes at the beginning, but it will be better if you get used to it.
– Games: 10, typing: 6, synthesis: 8, good touch and smooth, but when typing, you often accidentally trigger the buttons beside.
We were surprised by the MX Clear. To put it simply, the plain axis belongs to the tea axis with heavy hand feeling. For whether it is really suitable for the game, we may find some clues from the following evaluation.
Game: 10, typing: 9, synthesis: 9, this is the feeling that tea reels should have. The obvious touch makes me know whether I have pressed the button or not, which is very suitable for games. The feel of typing is also very good. Personally, it is second only to the green axis, because the white axis has no clicking sound of the green axis.
The tea axis next to it deserves the reputation of the omnipotent axis, and is also loved by many game players. In short, the black axis is the red axis with a strong touch. It is interesting that the “heavy red” of the black axis is not as high as the “heavy tea” of the white axis in the eyes of users. Maybe those who like the red axis pay attention to the dexterity and instant feeling, while those who like the white axis prefer the trigger feeling from fist to flesh.
Next, let’s look at typing.
Green axis and tea axis achieved high scores of 8.95 and 8.30 respectively in typing score. For Qingdao Axis, the typical user evaluation is as follows
-Games: 5, typing: 10, synthesis: 7, it’s impossible to play games that require double click operation… But the feeling of typing is unparalleled, with just the right feedback and click sound, wonderful!
-Game: 7, typing: 9, synthesis: 8. The game is not bad, but when it comes to typing, it is perfect (if you can accept the sound of Green Axis). Want a real typing experience? I tell you, Green Axis is the king.
Finally, there is a comprehensive score. If you usually type and also like playing games, this comprehensive score is worth referring to.
In the comprehensive score, the tea axis scored 8.42 points and the green axis scored 8.14 points. Take a look at your comments on the omnipotent tea axis:
Game: 9, typing: 8, synthesis: 9, playing MOBA games with tea reels is accurate; As far as typing is concerned, the experience is better than the red axis, and the voice is lighter than the green axis. Tea axis is competent for typing and games.
Games: 8, typing: 9, synthesis: 9. In fact, I prefer the red axis when playing games. The keys trigger faster.
In these comparisons, users think that red, white, tea and black are commendable in game performance, while green and tea are better in typing (with an average score of more than 8 points). What about the green axis and the milk axis (MX White)? The white axis has been mentioned in the game. How do you evaluate the two rare axes, the green axis and the milk axis?
Green Axis – It was originally used as the space bar of the Green Axis keyboard. It has the same sense of paragraph and feedback as the Green Axis.
Game: 5, typing: 8, synthesis: 7, feel stiff. Sometimes I like the feeling of “fighting with the keyboard”, but more often I like a softer feel and a quieter voice.
Game: 5, typing: 7, synthesis: 6. Some players will like the green axis, but I’m obviously not that one. The green axis may feel that the trigger pressure is a little light, but the 80g of the green axis is too heavy. Before choosing to buy the green axis, you’d better try it in the store.
Milk Axis – English name is MX White, but when MX Clear entered China first, it made a rush to register the white axis, so it is called milk axis or milk white axis. Milk axis has appeared since 1987. There is also a saying that milk axis is the embryonic form of green axis and green axis. From the data point of view, the milk axis and the green axis are the same in the trigger key range (2.2mm), trigger pressure (70g), segment pressure (80g), and bottom contact pressure (90g). The milk axis sounds slightly lighter than the green axis. Some enthusiasts think that the quality control of the milk shaft is poor, and there is no paragraph feedback sound when pressing the button.
Game: 6, typing: 5, synthesis: 5, theory is very beautiful, reality is very skinny. Because the green shaft is too noisy, but I still want to make a clicking sound, so I chose the milk shaft. However, I don’t know whether it is because of the lubricating oil in the mechanical shaft or for other reasons, my milk shaft feels like heavy tea.
Although users’ ratings represent the characteristics of the shaft body to some extent, and also point out the direction of the shaft body selection, we still need to point out that “there is no best shaft body”, “only the shaft body that is most suitable for you”. After all, the keys are light and heavy, and the feel varies from person to person.
