Take a look at the: Thermaltake Poseidon Mechanical Keyboard

If you have seen my previous posts, you would realize that quite a number of them are about mechanical keyboards and reviewing each of them. I just realize that there are some typing errors and grammars errors in my previous posts. I will edit them as soon as I spot the errors, alternatively, you may wish to point them out for me so that I can correct them, thank you! This would be one of the add ons to that. For this post, I will be reviewing on the Thermaltake Poseidon mechanical keyboard which is largely known as budget friendly mechanical keyboard.

The thermaltake Poseidon Z keyboard is available with two different switch types: blue and brown. However, they named the switches as Tt eSports certified mechanical switches. The switches are made by a company in China after the patent for copyright of Cherry mechanical switches has expired.

The above shows example of the blue certified mechanical switches on the Poseidon Z from thermaltake.

Now for the look of the keyboard and the lighting itself:

Don't this keyboard just looks cool? Anyway, apart from the look, the size of the keyboard is perfect for me, it's a full keyboard. For those of us who use the num pad a lot, this keyboard may be a good choice if you are on a tight budget. If you notice, you might be wondering what is the button on the top right hand side of the keyboard, you don't see such key in other keyboard. Well, it would be the window lock key, once you depressed the key, the window key will be locked. You may unlock the key by pressing on it again. This keyboard also allows for N-key roll over. Great entry mechanical keyboard for those who don't require macro functions keys.

Apparently, there are mixed reviews on this keyboard, some loves the feel of the switches and find that they are no different from the original switches. Some complained that the switches are more noisy and they are unable to withstand the noise. There are also those who love the quality and price of the product so much that they just give endless praises for the keyboard itself. While others, complain about the lightings being too bright, space being a different size and quality isn't that great. So I am really not sure what to say about this keyboard. However, I can assure that those of you who have no experience with mechanical keyboard and would like to try one that won't cost too much. This keyboard would be a great choice for you to experience how it is like to type on the mechanical keyboard, then perhaps move on from there.

I think that's about it, if I have any more updates on this keyboard, I will edit the post then. Also, if you manage to spot any errors, please advise or leave a comment so that I can rectify it. Thank you so much!
