Miscellaneous on the history of the keyboard thirty-seventh: DELL Dell SK-8165 membrane keyboard

1 Introduction

The UP of the egg hurts the Lord to introduce DELL series keyboard again, the previous period SK-8115/8125/8135/8175 has said, this time talks about SK-8165. From the model name point of view, this keyboard is definitely the Asahi OEM. However, the overall style of the keyboard does not follow the same line. The SK-8165 does not use the classic slim frame design but has a large frame design. The bottom width of the keyboard can be used as a small hand. The UP Owner of this keyboard says that SK-8165 may not be very familiar with many valued friends, but when talking about DELL's alien keyboards, it may be seen by some friends. In fact, these two are the same keyboard. Only the alien version of the LOGO became an alien, and the keycap had a white rim. In addition to the alien LOGO version of the SK-8165, DELL version also has two kinds of color, one is black and white, the other is black and black, these two UP main hands just have, the following describes the introduction It.

Alien version of SK-8165


Although this keyboard has been discontinued, it can still be purchased, but it is necessary to pay attention to whether it is in English, don't buy Japanese and Korean.

2. Appearance

The picture above is a black-white version, and the picture below is a black-black version.

Years of corrugated packaging, but the label in the upper right corner is different.

The SK-8165 does not extend the narrow frame design of the SK-8115, and the bottom width can be used as a small hand rest.

The keyboard is a 104-key US layout. The position of the arrow keys is a compact layout, so the height of the main keypad R1 is reduced slightly. At the top there is a media key control zone, and there is also the point that the F zone is not a full-sized keycap.

The latter models are cathode LOGO.

However, A01 has had a version of the metal logo.

There are a total of 12 media keys.

The biggest difference between the two versions of the black surface and the black surface is the process of the shell. The former uses the mirror process, and the latter is the common frosting process. UP master can only say that the mirror process is slag, it is easy to appear scratches, completely useless, the actual use is still a good scrub process.

Origin is China, also are A00 version.

The same material is used on the back of the keyboard, and the screws used are different.

There are five rubber anti-slip mats on the back of SK-8165. Saying DELL new keyboard, no matter how sluggish the use of materials, but I do not know why this piece of anti-skid do a good job.

One-stage open feet, moderate elastic feel good.

Although SK-8165 is a short-key keyboard, it is still a crater structure.

Compared to the SK-8175 and KB522 in the previous two phases, the SK-8165's keycaps are thinner and shorter. What material, 10,000 years ABS.

The font is a silk screen printing process, and the keycap particles are delicate, but the surface of the keycap looks like a skin-like coating.

The thickness of the cap wall was 0.6mm, but it was slightly thinner, but we wanted to be much better than 0.4KB KB522.

There is no ergonomic design and uniform height. As mentioned above, F-zones are not full-sized keycaps.

Although the SK-8175 is relatively thin, the overall size of the wider frame is not small.

After the foothold is opened, the tilt angle can only be said to be quite satisfactory. If the angle is bigger, it may be more comfortable to use.

The black and white version of the black line is 3.0mm, and the black and black version is 3.4mm. Is it because the white color is so large that the material is finer? The interface is an ordinary USB without magnetic ring.

The weight black-white version is 696.7g and the black-black version is 750.5g.



3. Summary


Before writing the summary, the UP master couldn't help but sigh. When the famous DELL keyboard with high quality and low price was far away from us, the summary of the three consecutive issues of SK-8175, KB522, and SK-8165 was one. Things, that is, the use of materials shrink, feel diminished, no sincerity. The SK-8165 certainly couldn't escape this bad luck. Short keyway design, thin wire, disappearing magnetic rings, and uniform height keycaps, the half-size F-zone was less sincere than the DELL keyboard. In terms of handle, the SK-8165's key range is shorter than the KB522 and SK-8175. The sense of passage and rebound is similar to that of the SK-8115. The surface of the keycap looks like a skin-like coating, making it difficult to slip during use. The same stability of the keycap is good, so it is relatively quiet in use. Finally, we must say that the difference between black and white and black and black is the difference between the two versions. The former uses a mirror process, which is completely invisible to the user. After a period of time, it is completely scratched. The latter is common. The matte process. The online path and weight are also the winners of the latter. But to say that there is actually a third version is also black and white, but the use of the shell surface is a matte process, and interested friends can go and see.
