机械键盘很棒，其令人满意的触觉反馈使您可以以更快的速度打字。问题是，它们太吵了，它们在开放式办公室中可能令人讨厌，在那里您可以听到多个键盘不停地大声点击。Happy Hacking键盘3（通常缩写为HHKB 3）提供了一种更安静的选择。
Mechanical keyboards are great, with their satisfying tactile feedback allowing you to type at a much faster pace. Problem is, they’re noisy as heck, making them potentially annoying in an open-layout office where you can hear multiple keyboards clicking loudly non-stop. The Happy Hacking Keyboard 3, frequently abbreviated as HHKB 3, offers a quieter alternative.
键盘旨在提供触觉反馈而不会发出喀嗒声（或烦躁不安的微调器兼容性），它使您能够以同样令人满意的即时物理响应进行打字，从而为您提供了继续输入下一个按键所需的提示。是机械的吗？嗯，不是真的（尽管偶尔会有在线争论），但是如果您使用机械键盘的主要原因是令人满意的反馈，那么您绝对可以在这里享受到。
Designed to deliver tactile feedback without the clicking noise (or fidget spinner compatibility), the keyboard allows you to type with the same immediate physical response that’s equally satisfying, giving you the cue you need to move on to the next key you’re typing. Is it mechanical? Well, not really (although there are occasional arguments about it online), but if the main reason you use a mechanical keyboard is that satisfying feedback, you can definitely enjoy that here.
顾名思义，HHKB 3是日本制造的键盘的第三代产品，它在键帽下方交换了传统的开关机制，从而有利于Topre静电电容式开关。作为机械弹簧开关，橡胶弹片开关和电容式传感器之间的混合体，该开关通过电容器垫以电方式记录按键，而螺旋弹簧顶部的橡胶弹片提供触觉推回，让您知道按键是否已正确配准，那些响亮的滴答声。
As the name implies, the HHKB 3 is the third-generation of the Japanese-made keyboard, which swaps out the traditional switch mechanisms under the keycaps in favor of Topre electrostatic capacitive switches. Billed as a hybrid between mechanical spring switches, rubber dome switches, and capacitive sensors, this switch registers keypresses electrically via capacitor pads, while a rubber dome on top of coiled spring provides the tactile pushback that lets you know a keypress has properly registered without making those loud clicking sounds.
它保留了与前代产品相同的60键布局，比市面上的大多数键盘都更紧凑。它不仅消除了数字键盘，而且消除了您在其他紧凑型键盘中找到的许多专用键，例如方向键，PgUp / PgDn，退格键等。不过，它们仍然可以作为备用键使用，因此，尽管需要一些时间来适应（尽管基于用户反馈，但是学习曲线很短），但是您仍然可以将它们与修饰键结合使用。顺便说一下，这种布局旨在减轻编码人员和程序员的手和手臂疲劳，尽管我们不确定确切如何实现。该键盘有印刷版和空白版两种版本，因此您可以为后者添加自己的标记。
It retains the same 60-key layout as its predecessors, making it more compact than most keyboards in the market. Not only does it eliminate the number pad, it eliminates a lot of dedicated keys you find in other compact keyboards, such as direction keys, PgUp/PgDn, backspace, and more. They remain available as alternate keys, though, so you’ll still get to use them in conjunction with a modifier key, although it will take some getting used to (based on user-feedback, though, learning curve is pretty short). The layout, by the way, is designed to reduce hand and arm fatigue for coders and programmers, although we’re not sure exactly how it accomplishes that. Oh yeah, the keyboard is available in both printed and blank variants, so you can add your own markings for the latter.
HHKB 3有几种方案。有Pro Hybrid，它增加了对AA电池和蓝牙芯片的支持，使您可以将其用作无线键盘，同时仍支持通过mini-USB电缆进行的系留连接 。另一方面，Pro Hybrid Type-S则增加了消音器，以进一步减弱按键发出的已经很安静的“敲打”声，同时又继承了蓝牙的支持。当然，他们也出售经典版本，仅键盘和mini-USB电缆。
The HHKB 3 comes in several flavors. There’s the Pro Hybrid, which adds support for AA batteries and a Bluetooth chip, allowing you to use it as a wireless keyboard, all while still supporting tethered connection via mini-USB cable (yes, apparently, they still use that over in Japan). The Pro Hybrid Type-S, on the other hand, adds silencing dampers to further muffle the already-quiet “thock” sound that keystrokes make, all while inheriting the Bluetooth support. Of course, they also sell the classic version, which is just the keyboard and a mini-USB cable.
键盘盖采用PBT塑料制成，键盘主体采用ABS制成，因此它是轻巧的外围设备，您不介意随身携带。它具有可折叠的支脚，可以使键盘以三个不同的角度支撑，并且背面的拨动开关使您可以从一种布局切换到另一种布局。您可以使用配套软件自定义布局，在该软件中您可以将每个键重新映射到您的确切首选项，与PC和Mac兼容。
Construction is PBT plastic for the keycaps and ABS for the keyboard body, so it’s quite the lightweight peripheral that you won’t mind bringing along with your laptop. It has fold out legs, which allow the keyboard to be propped up at three different angles, as well as a dip switch in the back that allow you to switch from one layout to another. Oh yeah, you can customize the layout using a companion software, where you can remap each key to your exact preferences. It’s compatible with PCs and Macs.
