The first rubber dome keyboard from Tesoro is very good, the product is solid and durable. Despite not using the famous CherryMX
key switches, the product is fast, responsive and with a good feedback. The backlight is absolutely excellent and the aggressive design
is everything we expected from Tesoro. |

The performance of the keyboard
is average when compared to previous gaming keyboards we have tested. The precision when typing is unquestionable, the feedback is good and without uncertainties. Unfortunately, the Tesoro does not include a palm rest, but despite
it, the keyboard is still quite comfortable, mostly thanks to the adjustable feet. The backlight is perfect for late-night sessions
in which the electric light is bad for the eyes. The sidebars add an extra touch to the keyboard, making it quite unique. The materials used, as well as the build quality,
are quite good and in line with Tesoro's style. |

Software |

- |
The software is well structured and easy to use.
We certainly appreciate the possibility to import and export profiles,
as this function is useful in case of a backup or sharing with friends.
Unfortunately, it still lacks the integration
with other Tesoro products, which means that if you own a Tesoro mouse
you will have two icons in the taskbar. With the provided software you will
be able to record macros, change profiles and change the color of sidebars (and eventually also turn them off). |

The new Tesoro Lobera is available (at the moment) only in Germany
and on Geizhals it goes for around 66 Euros, excluding shipping costs. The price is very competitive and the product is very good. If you are looking for a cheap gaming keyboard, Tesoro Lobera might be
just what you were looking for. |
