Niz plum T82

Every individual who works long hours at the desk should own a carefully chosen keyboard.

It must be reasonably priced, preferably made of plastic and mass-produced, so it’s not as delicate as a customized aluminum keyboard and facilitates easier replacement of parts.

It should be portable, easily fitting into a carry bag, ready to go at any moment.

It must support tri-mode, enabling swift switching between phone, iPad, and PC, offering the possibility of multi-device collaboration.

It must not make too much noise to avoid potential covert retaliation from roommates.

Most importantly, it has to suit and adapt to long-term typing habits.

After several days of intensive use, I can confirm that the Niz Plum T82 fits the bill.

Its OG color scheme, much like GMK’s, carries a distinct tranquility.

The compact layout, eliminating unnecessary parts, doesn’t occupy excessive desk space.

The presence of the F region satisfies any rigid professional needs.

The actuation force in electrostatic capacitive switches is a crucial parameter representing its unique feel.

45g of actuation force feels very similar to a 1.5 RMB mechanical switch, which, in my opinion, is not worth it.

But the 35g Niz switches are relaxed and quiet; typing feels like gently stepping on snow.

The pressure curve, with its peaks and valleys, makes actuation harmonize with the ergonomic motion of finger joints.

The two-tone keycaps have a slightly frosted, smooth texture, gently supporting your fingertips with a tender, soft embrace.

The rebound is like a dry kiss,

Each press has rhythm,

Traveling through fingers and meridians to the arms and heart.

The keyboard becomes an extension of the body.

Andy Clark said, human consciousness interacts with the world through external objects.

Jin Qiuye suggested that objects play a constructive role in human cognition and act as extensions of the body.

Whether it’s chopsticks, sensing the texture of food, phones carrying data, paper, pens, or keyboards,

They are all tools of the will, blurring the boundaries between internal consciousness and the external world.

In this sense, the keyboard is an external manifestation of individual thinking.

It is our weapon in the digital age.

We use it to input, output, express our individuality, and wrestle with the torrents of information.

Selecting a keyboard, isn’t it akin to forging a sword?

A worker must sharpen his tools to do his job well.

May your sword be well sharpened.
