Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was hesitant about buying this keyboard and mouse set due to some of the reviews, and the fact that I am very picky about my computer input devices. Honestly, I pulled the trigger based on looks, as I wanted a white and silver set to blend in with a room that was almost all white. There just aren't many keyboards/mice that are this color, so I figured I should give it a go. Well, so far, I am glad I did. Measurements: The keyboard is approximately 14.5" wide and 5.5 inches tall. The thickness (from your table to the top of the keyboard) is roughly 3/4" at the top of the keyboard, to 1/4" at the bottom, so the keyboard is slightly tilted. The mouse is about 4.5" from top to bottom, and 2.5" from side to side. The height is 1/4" at the front tip of the mouse, approximately 3/4" in the middle, and a bit over 1/2" at the bottom.It is difficult to measure the height, as it is curved to fit the hand, but to me it is a flatter feel that the Microsoft mouse I was using before.I thought this would bug me, but it's actually way more comfortable. Weight: I don't have a scale for actual weight, but the keyboard is light enough to carry with one hand easily, though not so lightweight that it moves or slides around on my slick wooden table. It does not feel cheap to me, and seems well made. The mouse is very lightweight, slides around my table easily without a mousepad, only has a barely detectable rattle when shaken. Lag: There is no lag with the mouse at all. It is quick to move around the screen, zips along like a speeding bullet. The keyboard has no lag that I can tell. Keyboard sounds: Many people have said this is "quiet" and some people have said it's noisy and clacky. To me, it's more of a thunk but not quite. It's not totally quiet, but it's not annoying me either. I'd say it's a matter of tolerance for anyone. I added a video so you could hear the keyboard. My phone is right next to it, and the room is perfectly quiet so you might get a feel for how loud it is. I'd say adjust your speakers for someone talking in a normal volume, then listen to the keys. Overall Impressions: I like this set. One pro about it is that you only have one usb dongle to use for both the mouse and the keyboard. So if you are short on usb ports, but need both a regular keyboard and a mouse, this is a nice feature. As stated, I am very picky about my input devices. I don't like to hammer on keys, I like them easy to push but not mushy. These keys are springy and responsive. They are slightly hard to push down for me, and my hands and arms get fatigued after long bouts of typing, however, I have muscle, tendon, and joint issues all over my body, so this is not unusual for me. The keyboard may fall asleep, but I haven't noticed if it has. It has always sprung right to attention when I start using it. The mouse does go to sleep but all it takes is a press down on the scroll wheel or other button and it wakes right up. Better than a dead battery in the morning. There is an on/off switch, but who remembers that? Both keyboard and mouse take AA batteries by the way. Two for keyboard, one for mouse. The color on the keyboard is an aluminum or silver for the base. The buttons are white, with very dark gray letters and numbers. They have black for the function key and the function symbols like mute, and volume. The mouse is mostly white, with a silver border going around the perimeter and silver accents on the scroll button, along with a small center button I can't seem to figure the use for. I am using a Windows 10 PC, this works fine. The drivers seemed to install fine, I had no trouble setting it up. I've just had it a couple of days, but I am pleased enough that it's a keeper. The only thing I feel is missing is a side button that I could use to map a zoom in/out function to, such as my Microsoft mouse has. I really miss that, but otherwise I have had no other misgivings. A solid set for the money in my opinion.
