Customer Reviews

A superb wired keyboard with the right buttons.
Surprisingly i bought this keyboard to replace a brandnew wireless Logitec keyboard.A wireless keyboard is fine but unless you invest in one of the very expensive rechargable battery compatible mice to go with your keyboard you will be buying no end of batteries.My logitec keyboard uses AAA batteries which for some reason use little of their power,its the mouse that uses the batteries like nobodies business and thats with the AA batteries which should last longer than their smaller AAA cousins.

I use a five button Microsoft wheeled mouse with my new Microsoft keyboard and the difference in cursor and page response is startling,its almost as if the mouse is super sensitive.

This superb keyboard has all the right buttons including separate ones for email,internet,volume,even music downloads and to finish it off its by Microsoft so you know it will never let you down.

It may have old technology cable coming from the back of it but theres one thing you know for shure that because its having a constant electrical source through its veins the cursor on the screen provided by the mouse willnot become slugish.

To prove the point,whilst playing my Tiger Woods Golf Game with my wired mouse everything has become hyper sensitive compared to my Logitec wireless mouse.the game has become more of a challenge because the signal being sent through the mouse is that much stronger than before.

If you are looking for a basic quality sensibly priced keyboard from the daddy of manufacturers then this keyboard should be high on your list.

Cheap rubbish
I have used many Microsoft keyboards, including the "Natural" curved models, and they have been fine, but this keyboard is junk. I managed to use it for approx. 2 minutes before a key stuck. Tried it again the next day, another key stuck. Too cheap to be worth returning, but my advice: DON'T BUY THIS KEYBOARD.

Not as Described
THIS IS NOT A USB KEYBOARD
Couldn't plug it in so no idea if it's any good
