Introduction
Thermaltake is a well known name when it comes to CPU coolers, Power Supply Units and cabinets. The company has recently ventured into the lucarative gaming peripherals segment, like gaming mice and keyboards, under the brand name TT eSports, and boasts a robust lineup with high quality products. Thermaltake’s presence in India has been subdued until now, as the company is taking major initiatives to tap into India’s market. One of those initiatives is directly linked to the eSports community in India, where they sponsor professional gamers from India at international gaming competitions. Thermaltake has had close ties with worldwide gaming communities since long, and that has allowed them to fabricate quality products fulfilling the requirements of professionals.
Having said that, to coincide with Thermaltake’s entry into India, we receive a review sample of the Tt eSports Theron wired laser gaming mouse (Model: TRN006DTJ) in our mailbox. eSports is on the rise in the country, especially amid the successful BYOC 2013. We’ve definitely got more people opting for professional gaming gear, like the ones Thermaltake manufactures. Other products in their lineup include gaming gloves, headsets and LAN bags – all built for the dedicated gamer in mind.
