CONCLUSION

   At 995g the Poseidon Z mechanical gaming keyboard by Tt eSPORTS may not be the heaviest of its kind but it's very solid and so it should keep you company for many years to come without issue. The backlit illumination is also very good and strong although we would like to see LED color variety since blue many not be something everyone likes (such switches are already a reality so we should see such keyboards from Tt eSPORTS rather soon). We do however understand that the most important feature of one such keyboard is its mechanical switches and here's where things are even more impressive since Kailh brown switches are almost identical to Cherry MX brown ones and we're not exaggerating. Some people call Kailh switches as fake and/or copies of Cherry MX ones but in the end who started the trend (or who has been dominating the market) matters very little. We care about the end result and the Poseidon Z has nothing really to envy from its brother the Poseidon that uses Cherry MX brown mechanical switches. Of course brown mechanical switches may give you tactile feedback but they require more force to press compared to red switches so unless you also use your keyboard to type a lot then the Poseidon with red mechanical switches is more recommended.

   With a current price tag set at USD79.99 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and at around 79Euros inside the EU the Poseidon Z Illuminated Mechanical Gaming Keyboard by Tt eSPORTS is amongst the cheapest ones in the market something which should go a long way with gamers. Sure it doesn't offer much in terms of features so it may not be the ideal choice for people who may want something fancy on their desks but for people on a somewhat tight budget it's certainly a very good choice. As for the Kailh switches well they worked like a charm and although Cherry will probably always lead the market it's a good thing to know that there are alternatives out there. Excellent build quality combined with brown mechanical switches and accompanied with a 5 year warranty and the end result is a very good product well worth our Golden Award.
