1 Introduction

This period, the UP owner is talking about the keyboard SK-8185. In fact, last week UP mastermind two. After editing the SK-8165's post to think of SK-8185 is its simplified version, but think about the photos are finished, let me water One of them. There is no alien version of the SK-8185. It looks like it has never seen a black-and-white version. However, there is a KB2521 from the brothers of the Group of Lights, but the KB2521 is too rare to be seen on weekdays. .

KB2521


2. Appearance

Or the beginning phrase of a thousand years, yellow corrugated packaging.

The appearance of the SK-8185 continues the appearance of the SK-8165, but it removes the top media keypad.

The keyboard is a 104-key US layout, and the direction of the arrow keys is relatively compact. The F-zone is also a half-size keycap, and the key gap is small.

Cathode concave LOGO

I do not know why the new models of lights are so painful, hidden in such a corner, KB-8175/KB522 are such designs.

Made by Heaven, A00 version.

There are five rubber mats on the back and the effect is obvious.

The foothold is open for a period of time and feels moderately elastic.

Crater structure + short key course

Keycap ABS material, exactly the same as SK-8165.

The font is a silk screen transfer process, and the keycap particles are delicate, with similar skin-like coatings.

Cap wall thickness 0.6mm

There is also no ergonomic design, uniform height, and F-zone height non-full-size keycaps.

Due to the cancellation of the F zone, the depth is one finger wider than the SK-8165.

As with the SK-8165, the angle of the foothold is still a bit small.

The wire diameter is 3.2mm, which looks like a little finer than the SK-8165 black version, and it has no magnetic ring.

The weight shrank from 750.5g of the SK-8165 to 566.0g, which was 83.5g lighter because the media area was removed.


3. Summary

S K-8185 is actually a non-media version of the SK-8165. The entire keyboard feels the same as the SK-8165. Although there is no KB2521 on the hands of UP owners, but according to past experience, DELL series of work is still better than Xu Li, DELL keyboard now has a total of five foundries, respectively, is the group light, Xu Li, NMB Logitech and Darby, on the overall work and feel, NMB> Asahi> Group Light> Logitech> Darong, but there are also special circumstances, such as the group of light KB522 can be said that the worst material used in all series, none of them. SK-8185 Although this keyboard has also been discontinued, but Ma Yun family can still buy Weihuo, the price is not much the same as the SK-8165, the choice between the two or to see personal preferences, but the overall UP to the Lord does not like this The design of the short-key process, so it is not very recommended to buy this, some people asked whether the UP master has other economic benefits, in fact, such as the IBM / Lenovo SK-8825 series keyboard is a good choice.

Ma Yunjia seems to have several domestic sellers, and take care not to buy Japanese or Arabic versions.
