I use Termite because of two reasons, firstly due to the key binding and secondly because it works best with tiling window managers is BSPWM.

I have tried using urxvt, terminator, suckless terminal and termite with a tiling window manager. And I felt that termite was the one which has a faster response time, supports True Color and easier to configure. Also, its keyboard-centric design and vim like keybindings felt more natural when working with a tiling window manager.
