When I first received the sample, I was blown away with how clean, simplistic the layout was and how crisp/clean it looked. After using it for a prolonged period of time, my opinion hasn't really changed and although I'm used to a UK layout, once I got...

The Gram Spectrum from Tesoro feels complete and versatile. It does remind us of certain Corsair models actually as they has the same feel and features with some small differences here and there. But we LOVE the Corsair keyboards and if Tesoro matches...

Tesoro has developed probably one of the best feeling keyboards I have ever put my fingers on. The AGILE switches seem to feel unusually responsive, even for mechanical switches. I really wouldn't have guessed that half of a millimeter less travel...

When it comes to the performance, both in gaming and day to day use, the Gram Spectrum is right on point. As mentioned, the lower actuation point of Tesoro's AGILE switch is one of the main selling points of this keyboard. This should also allow users...
