This would be my 3rd Purchase of this mouse and keyboard, a new one for my new PC and the old one (3 years old) still going strong for my home offer, 1st one wore due to much use after about 5 years – great connection, comfort and battery life. Brillia
Needs extra USB dongle (included) as it’s not Bluetooth enabled.
Keyboard is pretty good.
Mouse is awful so I swapped it for a Bluetooth mouse.
I bought a Logitech MX keys as i had a dinovo edge for years until sadly it died , the Logitech lasted about 2 months until it developed a fault total junk , this microsoft one however is about the same size as a dinovo edge and half the price , really solid and doesn’t fly out of your hands unlike the loitech one which was so slippy and had no grip at all , no issues with the Microsoft one much better build quality , ok no back light but that doesn’t bother me i would rather have a keyboard that has good battery life.
For the most part, the mouse and keyboard operate as expected. Decent travel and feedback from the keys. Mouse is responsive and of a good weight with accurate tracking. The smooth scroll wheel is a bit of a marmite feature, but I’m not a fan; and out-of-the-box it is accelerated which turns gun/item selection in games into a wheel of fortune. Requires a specific software download from Microsoft to access the settings and fix it. After a few months, the lettering is starting to rub off the keys.
I have bought a number of these keyboard / mouse combos over the years, and am happy with the build quality.
Nice keyboard/Mouse set, but top dollar for home/office use. I kept pressing additional buttons on the mouse by mistake, but they are useful. Quite a lare keyboard and the USB receiver is quite long
I’ve had top of the range Logitech and Microsoft but this one is the best by far. Made of decent quality materials, the keys are where you expect them to be and everything is just as it should be. Don’t waste money buying more expensive ones, these are fantastic.
An ageing product line but not much changes in the keyboard and mouse world. This is my third purchase of this for multiple locations. Simply responsive, comfortable and inexpensive. My only complaint is that the function keys are too small.
3rd or 4th time I have purchased this set for work or home, excellent key feel, mouse is a good full size so no hand cramping, good shortcuts that are programable with correct software.
USB receiver is quite large so you can’t keep it pugged in on a laptop you move around
Only real downside is the mouse wheel, that is rubber coated. After a couple of years it starts to degrade and get sticky, so dirt and fluff stick to it, eventually falling off. Unfortunately you cannot get spares.
Good product does the job. Only thing i would like is the ability to turn off the mouse and keyboard with a switch of somekind, at the moment to turn them fully off to not waste battery i have to detach usb stick and place in recessed holder under the mouse.
Great product but exceeded by some of the Logitech offerings (currently on k375s and m720). The battery life is a bit poor – but was using rechargeable which don’t suit the slow drain applications.
The receiver also suffers with interference from USB 3 ports so had to buy a USB extension to place the dongle on the desk rather than behind/on top of my tower PC so knocked a star off.
The keys feel nice, just a tiny bit ‘clicky’, so don’t expect this to be a quiet keyboard like the Apple ones are. But overall the keys respond well to typing lightly and all the function buttons make it a productive addition.
Very easy to install. Works well with Win 10 . Easy typing. Quiet operation. well worth purchasing. Initial comments.
After 9 months of use some key lettering was wearing off and as I type the T, I, L and O are wearing. The only solution is to purchase stick on key lettering. Not sure if this is a quality problems but it is annoying after only a short time.
