Tt eSports Theron Infrared: A Beacon On Your Desk

The Theron Infrared is a successful continuation of Tt eSports' design, which has carried over the past few years. The older version, which uses a laser sensor, sells for about $70, and the newer version with its infrared sensor goes for $60 direct from Thermaltake's online store. Although it looks symmetrical, lefties need to be mindful that this mouse is not ambidextrous.

Now let's take a look under this mouse's hood. It achieves high scores in the aesthetics department, though we also know that doesn't really mean anything if the hardware under-performs.

    The colors are no good. The hardware looks like all the other hardware available.

    No Level 10 products? I have the Level 10 Mouse and it's one of the best I've ever used.

    Lackluster features... Specially the headphones. Why invest in LEDs instead of using better speakers?!

    Makes no friggin' sense to me. Who is calling the shots for the quality and features of these pieces of crap?

    Cheers!

    I've tested it long times ago and I'm using both by myself :)

    "Even before we question Tt eSports' color choice, the decision to use it on the F-keys, Enter, Shift, Alt, and Ctrl over WASD is perplexing."

    Perhaps you should do some research on who the target market is for this keyboard. I didn't see a single mention of the Prime *TEAM* anywhere in your review of the G1, rather you just kept calling it "The Prime". I mean, it even shows them on the box.
