Wireless Desktop 2000

Purchased for use in the office as I already have another Microsoft Wireless Keyboard and Mouse at home. This set, the Wireless Desktop 2000, doesn't disappoint and lives up to the standard I have come to expect from Microsoft hardware over the years. Both the keyboard and mouse are what I would call "full size" so are well suited to all-day usage. Build quality is excellent with all key and button presses feeling nice and positive and a nice smooth scroll action on the mouse wheel. Installation on Windows 10 is as straightforward as plugging in the USB receiver and popping the batteries (included) into the Keyboard and Mouse. All of the standard keyboard keys will work without any additional software being installed. If you wish to use the additional customisable keys at the top of the keyboard, or reconfigure some of the other keyboard functions, it's a simple case of downloading the Microsoft Keyboard and Mouse Center application from the Microsoft website and using the straightforward interface to tailor the keyboard to your needs. The keyboard and mouse also work fine as a standard keyboard on Mac and Linux systems.

I have been looking for a replacement keyboard for a while but none have ticked all my boxes until now. Having tested this keyboard for a week I have to report that it meets my very high standard perfectly. It is a full size keyboard which has silent keys and feels professional. It also has a full row of dedicated keys inc browser launch, mail launch, zoom in and out, and full multimedia keys with volume control. The mouse is a full size mouse and works perfectly. I am extremely happy with the purchase and I hope my review helps others who wish to buy a quality keyboard.

At £23.99, this keyboard is brilliant! The mouse is alright, but I have some problems with it (paaragraph 2) My previous keyboard was a lot more simple than this one - spaced out keys, noisy keys, no media buttons, etc. This keyboard is almost the opposite but I definitely prefer it! It makes virtually no sound at all when you're typing which is great for working (or gaming!) at night when everybody else is trying to sleep, and also the keys in the vertical-middle of the keyboard are slightly lower than the others which makes typing a lot more comfortable. The rest is of a good quality although I haven't really used it because I am not used to having one! There's plenty of media buttons at your disposal which I'll have to play around with but I doubt I'll use them much. + comfortable + quiet + plenty of extra buttons! - esc, f1-f12, prtscn, scrlk, pause and the calculator are all buttons rather than keys which could be against your liking. - no Caps Lock light to say if it's on or off, but there is a visual screen notification telling you this. I prefer lights :) The mouse, on the other hand, isn't quite as good. It's a comfortable shape and the right sort of size for a fifteen-year-old's hand and I have no complaints on it's surface ability due to the "Bluetrack Technology", but the wheel of the mouse isn't really to my liking. I've only ever had two mice in my lifetime so I don't know if this is the new design of mouse or something but the wheel hasn't got any grooves or notches so it's a little less precise when scrolling. I had to install the microsoft software (which, by the way, was ridiculously easy to do) and managed to make the scrolling more precise but having no bumps in the wheel is definitely a problem for me. + comfortable + sensitive + software makes scrolling and movement easy to customize to your liking - wheel has no notches so scrolling isn't as nice as my previous mouse - don't expect to present it on a "best looking mouse" show, because it's rather boring. Black and grey is worse than just black. So, for £23.99, this is a damn good keyboard. I looked around for weeks on amazon at Logitech and Microsoft keyboards and I'm glad I took so long reading all the reviews to see the problems and benefits. Thank you to all those who took the time to write reviews and those who marked the good ones as helpful, it really helped me choose this wonderful package. (It's 4 stars because of the mouse's minor fault - a 5 star product shouldn't have any)

Plug my laptop into monitor, plug this into my laptop (usb very unobtrusive and fits either in back of keyboard or under mouse when not being used.) now I can write my essays in comfort wherever I am in my room. Great for chatting, skype or IM when you can just sit back and relax giving you a much more comfortable and natural conversation. Also clears desk space as you can have this on your lap or put it to one side when you need to write something down. Keyboard has a nice, comfortable hand rest with a comfortable texture to prevent wrist/hand injuries. (very useful for reducing essay cramp) Mouse works well on any surface, carpet, bed, girls bum ;) and feels comfortable in your hand. Just remember to turn it off after you have finished using it or your batteries will not last very long at all. AAA for keyboard, AA for mouse.

The keyboard is breat for gameing as well, im a big games and the preaviouse keyboard wirelles didn't expect my expectations and it broke after 1 year so i bought new one never had microisoft but thought what the heck let's give a try and it was good :) i can sit on my sofa and easily use from 4,5 m away it works up to 10 range. I use my Desktop pc and i connect to my Samsung 6 3d tv FullHD 46" works like a charm. P.S.I soon gona buy new gameing mouse and headphones form my laptop which arrives next week. i7 8gb 1TB 17.3 . My desktop pc is 5 years old so i decided to buy items in amazone and not in ebay.

This Microsoft keyboard looks and feels fantastic. I bought this for my office at work and it so far it has been great. The keys don’t make too much noise when typing and it has a good span, not too big or small. The calculator quick function is very useful as well as the hot keys, especially during busy times. The mouse has a good grip and is a good mouse. I sometimes eat lunch at my desk, and the keyboard does get dirty. But it is not hard to clean.

Non mi è proprio piaciuta, secondo me era usata. Aveva lo scatolo aperto e le batterie già inserite, sia nel mause e sia nella tastiera. Oltre a questo aveva anche la busta all'interno strappata. Comunque ci sono rimasta male, sono cliente di Amazon da tanti anni e non mi è mai successo una cosa del genere. Comunque l'ho mandata indietro.

Unfortunately, I will be returning the keyboard. Read the fine print. This is a UK keyboard and there are a couple differences that are problematic for day.to.day use. The biggest issues are the “, @, and left shift keys. Just not working for me.

Die Verarbeitung ist sehr gut.Die Installation kinderleicht: Batterien einsetzen, USB Stick anschliessen, fertig. Aber Achtung: Die Tastatur Layout Belegung ist die Englische: QWERTY.Man kann es in Windows 10 aber umstellen.Wer aber die Deutsche Belegung gerlernt hat, hat mächtig Probleme. Es gibt kein Ä oder Ü. Z und Y liegen woanders und vieles mehr. Sollte man in der Beschreibung unbedingt erwähnen.

Returned keyboard. Keys were in the wrong spot and miss marked.

pacco arrivato danneggiato, senza scatolo amazon, tastiera sembrava usata ...primo inconveniente con amazon .....
