| Great keyboard, little design flaws |
I have used this keyboard and mouse for 3 months so far.
Keyboard
Pros:
- Good design, good features, right feel in the fingers when writing, sturdy, long battery lifetime, LCD function great for checking time when you are playing games ;)
Cons:
- Misplace of some functions, like zoom on the left side, under normal operation touching it when working with the keyboard, volume control on top of keyboard, it could be better on the right side, like the S510, easier access to it, top function keys ( volume control, media, etc.) feels a little tight.
Mouse:
Pros:
- Good weight, good sensitivity, great battery lifetime (better that other models), it feels right on your hand.
Cons:
- None so far
In general, the combo is good, working great, and you can use rechargeable batteries instead of buying a rechargeable mouse (lot more expensive)
I do recommend this product. |

| pretty good keyboard |
I really like the keyboard. It is not squishy/creaky like Microsoft brand keyboards. It produces a satisfying, if understated click on each keystroke. The sound/feel is not as crisp as lapton keyboards, but close enough for my liking.
As for the mouse... meh. It is better than the cheapest of cat-food, but I already own an MX Revolution (fantastic for productivity and web-based applications) and I use my MX 518 for gaming. So, after a little bit of messing around, I took the batteries out of the mouse that accompanied this keyboard (but it keeps the other two company on my desk).
By the way, if you are looking to combine this keyboard with a more advanced mouse, you WILL need both USB receivers. Lame. |

| Rebate was not honored |
First of all, I've had no trouble with the keyboard and mouse. They both work well and look nice.
My problem is that a rebate I mailed in May was not honored. Today, 3 months later, I received an email saying that the item was not purchased within the time frame of the rebate. I have mailed out at least a dozen rebates in the past four or five years, and they have all been processed and redeemed without any trouble. I have heard the horrors of rebates; so I check my submissions at least five times before mailing. I think when the rebate was being processed, someone looked at a ship date or delivery date instead of the buy date.
In the future, I will not take into consideration the rebate when deciding whether I should buy a Logitech product. |
