The Tt eSports Black FP looks very, very similar to the original Black design from 2010, that for a moment had this reviewer wondering if he had been sent an old model. Never fear though, this is very much the real deal as you will soon see.
Like its original inspiration, the Black FP features a matte black, pearlescent paint job, accented with some red styling in a few key places. The back features a translucent Tt eSports logo, which shines through when the mouse is powered on.
On the rear-left hand side, there is a black indicator too, which lights up with LEDs to tell you which DPI step you have selected.
The left hand side features a pair of additional buttons, though no specific thumb grip. Instead it has a bulge in the plastic, which sits neatly against your thumb when using a palm grip. This mouse is definitely designed with that style of hold in mind, though does seem to work with finger grips too.
At the front of the left hand side is the fingerprint sensor, which we will cover more in the testing section.
On the right, there is very little to mention, save for a small indent, which I did not personally use, but could potentially act as a shallow finger rest.
At the front end of the Tt eSports Black FP there are the usual twin left/right click buttons, as well as a rubber-ridged scroll wheel and a pair of DPI selectors, which let you go up or down the scale at the touch of a button.
The underside of the mouse has a centrally located laser sensor (AVAGO 9500), with four corner mounted unbranded Teflon mouse feet. At the rear of the underside is where the weight compartment can be found. The panel pops off with a quick press, giving you access to the FP's underbelly.
It is here that you can alter the amount of extra weight in the mouse, though only by 22.5g in total, so it is not a huge swing in either direction but can certainly be made noticeable.
The mouse cable is braided to a nice standard and has an included cable tie.
