Tt eSports Poseidon Z Forged Mechanical Keyboard Review

Others/Mice & Keyboards by stefan @ 2015-09-15

Despite the fact that the Poseidon Z Forged mechanical keyboard does come with Kailh switches instead of the usual Cherry-MX, we haven’t found any differences right away and as many other people which have tested switches made by this brand, they were not disappointed by their quality. Keep in mind that the Blue versions are not as silent as Reds or Browns as they are made to have a perceptible tactile feedback and an audible click to them. This keyboard also brings to the table a metallic internal chassis and a top brushed aluminum layer, extra programmable keys on both sides, multimedia keys, a full blue LED lighting system with preset settings and adjustable light intensity but also a dedicated audio controller.

Packaging, A Closer Look Part I

The PC gaming keyboard territory is another extremely active area with various manufacturers launching more and more interesting products with different innovations in order to keep up with current tendencies. Poseidon Z Forged is one of the examples from Tt eSports which incorporates blue switches (non-Cherry MX but Kailh), plenty of programmable buttons and a solid metal plate for extra durability and a professional look. The product is shipped inside a medium-sized cardboard enclosure, which we found to be heavier than expected which told us that we were dealing with a pretty heavy keyboard inside:

The back side of the packaging explains us the main product components:

After lifting the top cover, we will get to see the main product, which is wrapped inside a transparent plastic bag for additional protection:

As documentation, Tt eSports has included a Warranty Policy leaflet but also a Multi-language Quick Installation Guide:

As all high-end peripherals, we are getting a fully-braided data transmission cable along with an optional wrist rest:

The USB cable is gold-plated and the connectors have a custom design printed to them:

The “Forged” moniker is not there for nothing, this version sporting a brushed aluminum layer which reinforces the keyboard and gives it quite a professional look. This aspect is also increasing the overall weight of the product so we are dealing with a total of 1.47kg:
