Customer Reviews

and while it sarted out great, over time tthe keyboards arted to malfuncion with ...**disclaimer** I will not edit anything after this sentence so you guys get an idea of how this keyboard types after 1.5 years of use; all errors are due to keyboard malfunctions (mainly T, H, and space bar).----------I purchased his keyboard almost 2 years ago, and while it sarted out great, over time tthe keyboards arted to malfuncion with he keys. I could press down a button and it wont register it at all, or would regiser it twice in a row. For instance, sommetimes I press "T" and It would show up as " " or "TT." same thing happens wih the space bar, where insead of putting down one space, it would put down two. Typing wih his keyboard becomes a real nuisance. It will also uncommonly l ag some of my keysrokes or add an extra space between words where i never ineded a space to be. It's legit he most annoying keyboard anyone could have ever asked for. I'm currentlyl ooking ino a replacemen.------The above was written without fixing any errors that my keyboard caused. This keyboard sucks.1RMA-ed once, key bounce/chatter on both boards So I had to update my review on this item.If you can avoid purchasing this keyboard, I would definitely recommend STAYING AWAY.The reason that I warn you is because these are extremely cheap for a mechanical keyboard, and once you start to experience key bounce and chatter you learn exactly why. The responsiveness of the keyboard is fine, the keys are made well, back lit , etc but the switches seem to be bad quality and that's my guess as to why TteSPORTS has been trying to sell these off for cheap.I previously RMA-ed my keyboard with TteSPORTS, their customer service was decent, and received another one. It was working fine for a couple weeks then the chatter/bounce started to happen again. I originally thought it was dust, so I bought a keyboard cover which I have not taken off once.I sent them an email yesterday, and also today without a response. If I could, I would return this keyboard and shell out a bit more for another one. I completely regret this purchase after having to RMA this keyboard and receiving a "newer" one of equal quality and experiencing the same problem.Tt eSPORTS, if you know that the same error keeps happening, what makes you so confident that when you send out another, of the same product, that it will not be equally as defective?If you don't believe me, this entire review was written with my Poseidon keyboard. Look for the double spaces, they are blatantly there. *turns out, amazon edits these so that double spaces aren't there.*took customer service 3 days to get back to me on my issue, and even then only offered the same product replacement. 2Works great at first. Then Problems. RMA needs your credit cardIn short, do NOT buy TTesports keyboard.As many said here, this is a great, compact, full size keyboard when it worked. It has been good for me for 2.5 years.Recently, it started double spacing inconsistently. Then the letter "u" and numeric "9" aren't responsive some time. Switching USB and cleaning doesn't solve the problems.I contacted Thermaltake and followed RMA procedure. and guess what.. they want my credit card info. They need to charge me first to get the manufacture approve. Then they'll refund me the money. FORGET IT.Do not waste your money. I purchased this KB here on June 20151Double keystrokes and transposed keystrokes make this mostly unusable.This keyboard started out wonderful, but eventually began to show signs of problems. At first, I'd see some keys not beiing responsiive, but that seemed to fade away so I diidn't think much of it. Much later, I noticed that while I type, I very often am met wiith te keyboard double-registering keystrokes. Of course, this is problematic iin that it slows down my ttyypiing because I have to go back and correct most tthiings I ttpye. Itt's diisasterous when it comes to passwords. IIt seems to also sometimies transpose keystrokes, so I end up with "teh" instead of "the". This reviiew will be leftt uncorrected so that you can see the problem II'm faced with. Of course, by timie I got around to checkinig the warranty niformatoin, t's now just past te warranty expiration.1Excellent mechanical back lit keyboard for the pricePlease see update at the bottom of the review.I was a little worried buying this keyboard, since I was not sure of the manufacturing quality, I am however very satisfied with this product so far. The lights are still working, the key faces are not wearing even with daily use for about nine months and the responsiveness is very good. I did install some o-rings (used Cherry MX O-rings and they fit great) about three months in to help reduce the very loud clicks of the keyboard and to reduce the travel of the keys, and I have been very happy with the results. I can recommend this keyboard as an excellent substitute for the otherwise much more expensive name brand gaming and back lit keyboards.Update: Well about 4 months ago(o) the keyboard eveentually began to malfunction. It has been pretty frustrating trying to type long letters(s) or even short passwords. I have decided not to to(o) edit this re(e)view after it was typed to show the troubles I have been dealing with lately. It has beeen much worse than what is sho(o)wing right now as only a few buttons appear to be(e)(0) doubling or n(o)t showing. It has been rather unbearable. I had this keyboard f(o)r about 3 years and it serv(v))ed fairly well during that time. But I was e(x)pecting more longevity (o)ut of this k(k)e(e)yboard. Ultimately it was fairly dissapointing. I have tried cleaning the keyboard: with dust spray small amounts o(o)f alcoh(o)l but it has just only gotten worse. I can no(o) loongeer recommend this keyboard, bec(c)ause I've never abus(e)d this keyboard. So, I must downgrade the rating I previously gave it(.) (4 attempts to mak(k)(e)e a period). Nothing in this part of the review has been ex(x)agerated. Just for one last test: I am the vveeery model of the moodern major generaal I've information animal and vegetable and mineral I know the kings of England and I quote the fights historical from Marathon to Waterloo in oorder ccategorical I am accquainted too with all matters maathematical I understand equations both the simple and quadratical about binnomial theorem I am teaminng with a lot of nes... with many cheerfful facts about the sqare of the hyppotenuse. (all words were spelled correctly in my typing).2Lasted about three years and nine monthsI liked near everything about the keyboard and used it every day for the usual typing tasks as well as gaming. Unfortunately it didn't stand the test of time. It was still going (and technically still is) however a couple months ago it started registering extra keystrokes on many keys to the point that it was hindering my use of it. Eventually I got so sick of needing to re-type passwords and other text that I decided it was just time to retire it. This time I went with another brand in the hope that it would last longer. This keyboard has lower profile keys on it that I prefer to the replacement I got so that's a bummer but I hope it will be just a matter of getting used it.Overall, 2.5 to 3 stars is probably fair for this. It worked well and I didn't have any trouble with it for most of its lifetime but it needs to be made of sturdier stuff.3Good keyboard while new but no longer reliable after 2-3 years.Worked well when new. Bought in March 2015, but by 2017 the keys weren't being responsive. They felt good and all while they were working but now the keyboard is unusable. Half of the keys no longer respond regularly, maybe 1 out of ~3-6 key presses. Reached out to customer support because it's supposed to have a long warranty but no response whatsoever.Thought it was the connection with my PC so I brought it around to work or office and tried with different computers. That's when I fully realized the keyboard was just breaking down.A keyboard should last more than 2-3 years. Especially at this price (bought for ~$80).2Warranty Dodgers!I really enjoyed this keyboard until it started Ghosting. I used it almost a year before the ghosting started to occur. I felt confident that I would be able to get this repaired due to how much they boast in their warranty, however, I've tried several times to contact the manufacturer but haven't heard a single thing back. 3 different emails giving them at least 2 weeks in between to contact me and not a single peep from them. I have tried cleaning it out with a can of air but still the ghosting occurs.I'll definitely be getting another mechanical keyboard but NEVER AGAIN FROM Tt eSPORTS.Don't risk it, just save up 10 to 20 more dollars and go with something better.1The Best Gaming Keyboard EverFirst of all, I have been using and reviewing a lot of PC gaming peripherals in the market. I have critically reviewed a lot of products from Razer, SteelSeries, Logitech, Ducky, Corsair, and Asus (ROG). Among these elite manufacturers, one name consistently stands out with their excellent build quality and overall good reviews on their products; Thermaltake's Tt eSPORTS. Tt eSPORTS has gained formidable reputation with their gaming keyboards, headsets and mice, and also worth mentioning is their gaming accessories (like bags and metal keycaps). They successfully made me highly intrigued and I immediately bought myself a Tt eSPORTS Poseidon Z Forged.PACKAGING:The box the keyboard came with is rather simplistic yet elegant in a way. The details and specifications on the box tells you everything you need to know about your keyboard. You can see that Tt eSPORTS really highlight the 5 year warranty on their Tt Certified Mechanical Switches (which is Kailh Blues, more on this later). It also displays the keyboard's primary characteristics, like the awesome aluminium top plate and the ISS (Instant Shift System).INSIDE THE BOX:Apart from the keyboard itself, you get a user start guide, warranty information card, a braided high quality USB cable, and a magnetic-based wrist-rest.BUILD QUALITY:I must say, I am extremely impressed with this keyboard. The aluminium top plate makes it very durable and strong, and the brushed finish will last a long time. The metallic structure also adds some weight, so it will stay firmly in place on your gaming desk without buckling around. Overall build quality is just amazing. It is comparable to Corsair K70 and Razer Blackwidow Ultimate, and for me personally, this keyboard is better than most of its competition.The detachable magnetic-based wrist-rest is great, light and very durable. It attaches to the keyboard magnetically, so this means no more breaking clips accidentally.On the right-hand side of the keyboard at the rear, you will find two USB ports, a mic jack and a headphone jack. The position is correctly laid out. This is far more preferable than having it on the right side like Razer Blackwidow Ultimate.On the underside of the keyboard you will find cable management system. This is a really helpful addition as it means less fuss, more focus for the game.The keyboard is equipped with 10 macro keys, with five on each side. This is great for gamers who uses macro keys a lot. Be aware however, that the length of the keyboard will create quite a gap between itself and the mouse, so a wider stance is advised.The Advanced Shift System allows you to swiftly change the macro groups, giving you easy access for a total of 100 macro in gaming mode.Interestingly, the keyboard is outfitted with an onboard DAC Amplifier USB Sound Card, meaning you can plug in a headphone straight into the keyboard itself. I have experienced boosted volumes before so mind your volume level and adjust accordingly.The full mechanical switches is Tt Certified Switch, which in this case, Kaihua Electronics' Kailh Blues. Now, I have been using Cherry MX switches for a long time, with my favourite being the Cherry MX Blues. Whenever I switched to Kailh mechanical switches, I feel almost absolutely no difference at all between Cherry and Kailh. The feel and structure is very similar, in a good way. Kailh Blues, or Tt's enhanced Certified Switches, are very good in terms of performance and durability.Underneath the keycaps, apart from finding the mechanical switches, you will also find a blue metal plate that serves two purpose; to maximize durability and to accentuate the beautiful neon-blue backlighting. Keycaps is standard ABS, and the font used for the keys is modern but simplistic.You have been 6 levels of backlight illumination, including a Pulsing effect. The keyboard also has several pre-configured backlighting setting based on genre, like FPS, MMORPG, MOBA and others.PERFORMANCE:I have been using this keyboard for hours of gaming and typing, and performance is top-notch. No issues with the keyboard whatsoever. Even after a long session gaming, my wrist and hands does not feel tired at all, both with and without the included wrist rest. I play games more comfortably, and the mechanical switch is awesome; highly tactile and very clicky. Most importantly, the keyboard is wonderfully responsive and fast. This has to be one of the best mechanical gaming keyboard I have ever reviewed. Exemplary job Tt eSPORTS (or Thermaltake)!OVERALL VERDICT:With its highly accurate and fast actions, extremely durable build quality, aluminium top plate, Instant Shift System, Tt Certified Switches and awesome backlighting, the Poseidon Z Forged is an amazingly powerful gaming keyboard. It is also the best mechanical gaming keyboard I have reviewed so far. Thermaltake's Tt eSPORTS, thank you for producing such a fine gaming keyboard. Its only flaws are its buggy and laggy software.Apart from that, it is just, wonderful. :D5Nice keyboard -- at first!After about a year tthis keyboard started double-strikking some times, not striking at all other times. No big deal, you mightt think, in these days of spellcheck & autocorrectt. True, just a minor annoyance, until you ttry entering passwords. When you're entering a long password with the characters masked, you don't kknow until the password fails that there was a problem. Add to that the fact that many sites lock you out after three fails, and this problem quickly becomes more than a minor annoyance. I've also had confirmation e-mails sent to the wrong e-mail address a number of times because of this problem.I really liked the feel of the keystrrokes, but after a year or so, this has just become too big a problem to keep using. Back to th standard issue keyboard for me, I'm afraid.[Mar 2019 edit] I after writing the first review, I noticed that the keyboard was still under warranty. I got a replacement, and lo & behold, a little over a year later, the double-strokes have begun to return again. Now that the original warranty has expired, I'll be looking for another keyboard soon. Rest assured it won't be one of these.1it sucks all of the keys double type every other letter ... it sucks all of the keys double type every other letter when typing, it is extremely annoyingcontinues to miss type every other word. I don't recommend this as all. 1Worked great at first, now after 4 bad boards in a row I'm beginning to think this was a huge mistake, we will see..............O.K. I'm always getting on people for writing a complaint as opposed to a review of a working product and to wait until they get a working product before writing a realistic review of said product.Well with that said I have worked in the Computer field as the shops head tech and hardware buyer since back in 1994. So I many years of hands on with building new servers, workstations, gaming systems, networking, and doing tons of research on computer hardware before buying it for the store.This is not an easy job but I love the doing the research and staying up to date with computers and computer hardware.So when I saw these new mechanical keyboards being sold and how popular they were for both gaming and typing I thought do some research and give one a try.I chose the Brown Switch version of this Thermaltake Poseidon single key back lite keyboard at a fair price I jumped at it.Now I really, really ,wanted to love this keyboard and did for a few months with my first one. It began really screwing up after that 2 month period which forced me to send it back with a RMA..Now it cost me nearly $20 to return this via the U.S.P.O standard mail. I received a replacement that failed within 2 days which was really a horrible feeling.Well, understanding that all computer hardware has a failure rate and these being new keyboards I figured I just had some bad luck.O.K. now for return #2 back for replacement. The good news: Thermaltake sent me a pre-paid UPS label so the return shipping was free.I received the( third ) keyboard about 2 weeks later and it also looked new out of the box. I then began seeing problem keys right away within minutes out of the box. I was really shocked by this and a tad upset.I emailed Thermaltake for a new replacement label and they sent me one. Now I was waiting for replacement keyboard #4 and guess what it arrived about 2 weeks later and I'm having issues with it as I type this review right now.In all my years dealing with computer hardware I have never had 4 bad anything after a RMA. In fact this is by far the worst RMA experience I have ever had with any piece of hardware. I once had a Asus Radon 6950 that failed about 2 months short of it's 3 year warranty and received a bad card in the RMA they sent back. This was also taken care of by Asus with a free return label and a fully functional video card on the second RMA attempt.All other of my personal RMAs for all other hardware was functional on the first RMA replacement . So although parts will fail most computer hardware companies will get you a replacement that works on the second attempt.Well with this keyboard I have had nothing but failure after failure and it's really getting old at this point.The only other components I have had really bad issues with: LG Blue Ray burner BD-RE that dies within a year and was only warrantied for months, a LG DVD-RW that also failed just after a year and was barely used as a back up drive.No more LG anything for me or the shop!!!I also have had bad luck with the Pioneer BD-RE that just failed out with only 2 months left on a 1 year warranty and I'm still wondering if Pioneer will actually honor the warranty or not?As far as this keyboard goes I simply can't believe I'm the only one with all these key stroke failures? It's highly improbable that I'm the only end user that has had lots of problems with this Brown switch keyboard!So for now I'll keep the review/complaint at 3 stars but when I send this keyboard back for the fifth attempt at a fully working keyboard it better work!If it does not I'll simply change my review to a 1 star complaint with a side note of 5 bad keyboards over the last 5 months.Now this keyboard has a 5 year warranty but I find no comfort in this warranty when every single keyboard I have had just will not function correctly at all. If I had a single key sticking I would simply deal with it. This is not the case as every one of these boards has had more than a single key stoke problem.I really hope I have just had a really long run of bad luck from a bad production run, but I highly doubt this is the case.Sincerely, Steven Level3
