◆PRO X TKL RAPID
This is the 'PRO X TKL RAPID' package.
Inside the box were the PRO X TKL RAPID unit, a USB Type-A to USB Type-C cable, and instructions.
The keyboard itself looks like this. The dimensions are 38.7cm wide x 16.6cm deep x 6.2cm high. The keyboard is a QWERTY layout for Japanese input, and does not have a numeric keypad.
The actual weight is approximately 0.9 kg.
The top of the keyboard features a game mode button that disables pressing the Windows and application keys , a brightness button to adjust the brightness of the backlight, buttons for skipping back, playing/pausing, skipping forward and mute, and a volume dial to control the volume of the device.
In addition, there is a light at the top center that indicates whether the Caps Lock is on or off. When this light is lit, the Caps Lock is on.
Some keys are assigned functions to customize PRO X TKL RAPID's unique functions, and when viewed from the side, you can see the engraving in the red frame. By pressing the corresponding key while holding down the function key, you can adjust
The nominal keystroke depth is 5mm, the actuation pressure is 35g, and the actuation point is 0.1mm to 4.0mm. In addition, by using a keycap puller, it is also possible to remove and replace the key switches, making it 'hot swappable.'
I recorded the sound of a keystroke on the PRO X TKL RAPID. The PRO X TKL RAPID uses a magnetic analog switch, which gives a light touch to the keys, and combined with the heavy body, allows for stable typing.
The back of the keyboard looks like this.
There is a USB Type-C port on the right side of the back.
There is nothing on the right or left side.
The front looks like this.
There are a total of five anti-slip pads on the bottom, and a stand for adjusting the angle is located at the top of the bottom.
The stand can be adjusted to three different angles: default, 4°, and 8°.
Below is the stand raised to 4°.
I tried raising the stand to 8°.
Connecting to your device is wired only, and as soon as you connect the cable the key lights up and is ready to use.
PRO X TKL RAPID allows you to adjust the actuation point and rapid trigger function using the dedicated software '
G HUB gives you detailed control over your PRO X TKL RAPID's LED lighting.
You can also assign functions to the keys. With PRO X TKL RAPID, you can set up to 15 programs to one key.
On the analog switch settings screen, you can adjust the actuation point and rapid trigger, as well as set 'KEY PRIORITY' to customize the behavior when two keys are pressed simultaneously. In 'KEY PRIORITY', you can select two keys and choose from four options: 'Enter the information of the key pressed the deepest', 'Enter the information of the key pressed last', 'If the prioritized key is pressed, do not enter the information of the other key', or 'If both keys are pressed, do not enter either key'.
You can also use G HUB to set keys that will not accept input when Game Mode is turned on.
