Lemokey l5 he 8k keyboard review

Published:

It is far from physics, but the Hall effect – the production of the potential difference in the electric cable, which is transverse to electricity in the cable and to the magnetic field perpendicular to the electricity, as is well known – it is brilliant. At least it is when used for keyboards and game controllers, because it allows them to operate something like a motion sensor that works at a miniature distance instead of a microscope or pieces of metal and plastic moving over themselves. This means that the keyboard switches with a faster reaction time and less polishing of plastic parts to other bits, so the switches wear less easily.

All this sounds great, and the PC player has long been a loser of everything that seems to speed up Keypress. It is also not recent and we saw boards such as SteelSeries, Nuphy and others – in fact many best games keyboards – with the hall effect and do it really good.

The Lemokey L5 He 8k keyboard is an object Kickstarter campaignAnd Lemokey is a pending fork, whose keyboards have traditionally reviewed well. Indeed, L5, which is not very different from Q3 Max keys – at least outside.

Lemokey provided a 75%keyboard of games with a trigger speed with a questioning and scanning rate of 8000 Hz, the hall effect switches and 0.01 mm sensitivity. It is also, as you will notice, when you pull it out of the packaging, extremely ponderous. Sharpening this keyboard (and already has quite a gigantic edge at the back), glue it to the pole, and you will rule an effective weapon when society breaks down.

But by this time you will have about 1.8 kg of machined aluminum and plastic on your desk, which is quite resistant to pushing no matter how much you put it on.

And that sounds amazing. The keyboard sent to the exclusive PC testing laboratory and Michelin Star restaurant for review is black and green, with some keys topped with limpid hats, and others with black. This is fine, although black and red can be more striking colors and I hope that they offer them, but the sound he made after pressing is phenomenal.

If you are a person who pulls out the keys, you will receive a characteristic twice clicking the key as possible before you retreat again-there is no rattling of Lemokey heavyweight metal compilation, so it is pure noise from the keys themselves. If you are more restrained and you can stop, releasing the key long before contact and how to best operate the absurdly high keyboard activation point, you are still rewarded with one pop. The sound that reaches up is more empty than clicking from below, but the whole thing sounds wonderful elderly -fashioned, almost like a mechanical typewriter.

As a 75% keyboard, they can be a bit tight, and the keys themselves are slightly smaller than those that can be found in the membrane model. At least the arrow keys (there are no numbers) are a decent size, unlike many laptops, and although the Enter key is cut off and topped with a massive key apparently devoted to the darkening of the punctuation of interest only for programmers, they are home, PGUP and PGDN, taking their own section on the right, and the opportunity to take the opportunity to get the opportunity to get the irritating keys, which were full, which were in the club thanks to MIC. Shenanigans. At the top, the keys have a bit rugged consistency, which seems exactly like plastic, what they are. I am in favor of honesty in the architecture of the national keyboard, but their demanding tops and piercing edges can be a bit tiring after ponderous operate, and something that can be hidden and softened. But this is a configurable keyboard, so there can be something that it can do.

In the upper right corner of the keyboard there is a knob, and this is the only disappointment on the board. You deliberately understand him between the thumb and Forefinger, expecting meat chon when he clicks … And although there is a bit of resistance, clicks are weaker than the general disposition of the board would suggest. In any case, in the review model sent to us, he had some games and shakyness that were not present anywhere else. It will probably be fine if you operate it to adapt the volume during the game, but it seems incompatible, taking into account the quality on the display elsewhere.

Buy if …

✅ You want a liquid switch: These Hall’s effect switches will not click when they transfer the activation point, so the key drops smoothly. Activation is almost immediate, so you never wonder if it worked.

Don’t buy if …

❌ Your neighbors like a still life: Speak the keys and you will create a wonderful double -click when the keycap keys touches the frame and jumps again. Sounds great, but it can be a bit annoying.

Similarly, the keyboard is equipped with two screwdriver, a tool for removing the key and additional bits, as well as a switch on the back, which I suspect, adapts the election speed, but there is no instructions on what he is doing. The key keyboards are a fascinating aspect of computer games, but someone came to it for the first time, he would be surprised by the lack of direction and we hope that this is attached to the finalized model sent to supporters.

And when it comes to these hall effects switches, they feel great. As the switch is busy, there is no rugged fishing – which can be a disadvantage, if you rely on getting feedback during the game – there is enough travel and resistance in the keys to get really good writing, although you may need to support your wrist to get your hand in an ideal position thanks to the heights of a metal frame.

L5 is a wired plate, connected to the USB -C port and containing cable (plus C to the adapter), and is equipped with 22 RGB backlight options controlled by combination of FN keys and selection – although it is also compatible with the Kechron internet application for updating the layout software, creating a macro combination, brisk trigger switching and others. And for 199 USD it is also a way to touch next to your favorite (and the most wooden) Hall Effect Keal keyboard, Kechron K2, which costs about 140 USD. These details, however, are close to the irrelevance next to the glory of L5 Keys and the huge presence of metal on the computer. The problem is to find a mouse that can offer the same type of workmanship and rightly sit next to it.
