Logitech - MK850 Performance Full-size Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo for PC and Mac - Black

In a word, excellent. I've had this keyboard and mouse set for almost a year now so I feel I can adequately review it. I’m an IT professional and between work, training pursuits and my own generally nerdiness I spend most of my waking hours parked in front of it. And it has proven to be an excellent companion. I purchased it so I could toggle easily between my work laptop, personal laptop and iPhone and it has performed very well in that capacity. I also wanted a keyboard that employed encryption (it’s shocking how easy it is to hack many wireless keyboards) and this fit the bill for under $80. Under this extreme usage battery life is about ten months, more than adequate in my opinion. Enough about its admirable qualities, what about the downside? Well the mouse has lost connection with one device or another from time to time and had to be re-paired, the keyboard is less prone to this. In all fairness even the most expensive units are susceptible to this. The typing experience is good but not great and some of the mouse buttons can be accidentally activated if you’re not careful. If you need the ultimate in a typing experience, I recommend looking at the MX Keys/MX Master3 mouse combo. One of my coworkers has this setup and it is amazing (albeit at 2.5 times the price I paid). I rarely give anything 5-stars, but I feel for the price point it is deserving in this case. If you take the price out of the equation it knocks it down to 4-stars.

This is my second one, I've had the first one for over 5 year and still works, got a second one for my new PC. Very low sound, comfortable to type all day.

This is a pretty good keyboard/mouse combo. The multi-device functionality is great - I switch between a dell laptop, a Mac, and an iPad with no trouble. The Logitech keyboards have a lot of options which you can customize (the fn key lock is very nice). The two things I struggle with on this keyboard are not huge issues. First the control key - I use a lot of shortcut keys when using excel and the control key doesn’t always press all the way down. This could be related to the slight curvature of the keyboard and I am used to flat keyboards but either way it’s an annoyance which slows me down. Second thing is the wrist pad - it gets dirty, little specs of everything get into the black fabric and is very visible (see the picture in my review). I tried using tape to get these particles off but I found a damp microfiber cloth worked better. I’d probably rate this better had I not used a Logitech MX Mechanical first (I recommend that over this if you can afford it).
