Tt Esports Meka G Unit

Computer Keyboard Reviews

TT Esports is a brand owned by Taiwanese manufacturer Thermaltake, a firm that specialises in making heatsinks, cooling systems and PC cases rather than gaming accessories like top gamer brands such as Razer. And yet, the Meka G Unit looks like it could be the ultimate gaming companion, as with backlit keys, a polling rate of 1000 Hz, 60 macro buttons and big mechanical keys, it could have everything gamers need, including a reasonable price tag! This Meka G Unit keyboard certainly has some great features. For starters, it's sturdy and solid, and the product has a rough, textured finish which we rather liked. Plus, you can switch between three user profiles when gaming, each with 12 macro keys, and there's a two-port USB hub and a headphones socket built-in. However, that doesn't mean that this keyboard is without fault. Although this keyboard may boast a backlighting system, only four keys are actually backlit! In fact, if you look closely, the packaging advertises 'Gaming LED Backlight' which apparently means that only the 'gaming' keys (W-A-S-D) are backlit. The only other light-up parts of this keyboard are the little diodes that show you when Caps Lock and Num Lock are on or off. We can't really see the point of limiting the backlighting to just four keys—it could at least have been extended to the profile and macro keys too!
