Logitech MK850 Performance Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo

This keyboard is a great value. Very quiet, which I greatly prefer. I'm able to type by touch a little faster as the keys have a nice tactile response even though they are quiet. As usual, a new keyboard required a bit of familiarization even though my prior keyboard was also a Logitech. The keys are in just a slightly different spacing but was no big deal. I've used lots of different computers at once and all of the keyboards are just ever so slightly different. The previous one lasted many years but finally wore out. I like that this one can used the unified receiver or Bluetooth, and also work with different machines. The mouse is also very nice... easy touch on the buttons and one can adjust the feel of the scroll wheel.

For daily personal use, I use both a laptop and a desktop PC, and for the past year, I have been working at home, which introduces a 3rd device (a work laptop) to my daily routine. I've got sort of a "man-cave-ish" work/personal setup going on now, where my desktop and work PC are both hooked up to my main TV (I switch the TV input to the work PC during work hours), and my personal laptop is hooked up to a 2nd smaller TV, situated at a slight angle next to the main TV. This whole setup is situated in front of my recliner, from which I now use this spiffy keyboard/mouse combo to control everything.The keyboard has a slightly convex key arrangement. I've never been a fan of this, but this one's is pretty slight and not an issue for me. I've also never been a big fan of wrist rests on a keyboard. Most keyboards I've had in the past have a detachable one. I was concerned about this one because not only is this one not detachable, but it also has a fabric surface, which I (correctly) feared would become rather funky after several days of use. Luckily, it does clean up nicely with a disinfecting wipe. While it doesn't do a whole lot for me functionally or ergonomically, it isn't as big a problem as I thought it might be.I don't have any real issues with the mouse - it's fine, although I had to go into the software to disable the gesture "button", as it was extremely annoying. The actual buttons on the side are fine, but the "non-button" area of the left side of the mouse as a whole acts as a button as well, and I was constantly getting the windows-tab screen when I didn't intend to see it.As for the USB connectivity, I have my main desktop using the Unifying Receiver, and I am also (out of necessity) using the extender cable which was included in the package to bring the receiver closer to me. This mouse and keyboard seem to have a much shorter range than other wireless Logitech mice and keyboards I have used in the past, but the extender cable makes it usable.For the Bluetooth connectivity, there is typically a delay of a few seconds when switching to a device, but I had read others' comments to this effect before I bought it, and figured it was a fair enough tradeoff for not having to switch to multiple mice/keyboards when using multiple devices. It's not that bad.The main issue I have with the connectivity is that if I am using a 3rd Bluetooth device (i.e., a headset for work meetings), if I switch either the mouse or keyboard to another device, it won't connect back to the device using the headset. I actually have to open the work laptop and use the laptop touchpad/keyboard to go into Windows settings, disable Bluetooth, and re-enable Bluetooth in order to use this mouse/keyboard again. It is really annoying. The obvious workarounds are either to not switch to another device when on a work meeting, or to just use the built-in audio of the work laptop instead of a Bluetooth headset. I don't know if this is the fault of the Logitech mouse/keyboard, or if it is an issue with the work laptop or even my Bluetooth headset, so until I've done more testing, I can't really ding Logitech for this issue.Overall, this is a good solution to my problem, which was having to juggle 3 different mice and keyboards, but it is not a perfect solution - I will still keep my eyes peeled for similar solutions which don't have all of the issues I described above.

The wrist rest is very comfortable. It is a full size keyboard. However the first very noticeable thing upon pressing down on a key on the keyboard is that it feels like you've rested your head on a memory foam pillow, that kind of feel. And the key release seems to be slow as well. I didn't use it too long and opted to return it all because the mouse, though of very good quality, was not a silent mouse and I didn't know that. I ended up by the wave keyboard and mouse combo and that also had a very good mouse but was very silent, both clicks and scroll wheel. Also as for the size of the mouse of both products, it seems to fit very well. Definitely not as large as the MX Master 3S. That mouse is heavy and big.

I bought two of these bundles in 2023. 1.5 years later, I think the keyboard failed, or at least I could not get it to work. With no user manual available, either in the package or online, it is hard to tell if I inadvertantly did something wrong and locked it up or if it really is broken. After almost 2 hours of trying to get it to work, I gave up and bought a new one. I am able to work the keyboard mostly, but there are substantial gaps in my knowledge due to the lack of a manual.Apparently, its special power is that it can work with both Apple and Windows machines and easily switch between the two, but I only use it for a single windows computer, so I can't speak to how that works. It has a lot of keys, but lacks the tons of special user keys common to keyboards in this price range. I don't use those keys anyway, so it is not a problem for me. The mouse works great, although there a 3 side keys that are a mystery to me. Again, there is no user manual for the mouse.Overall, I like the keyboard for the most part, and I love the mouse. I would have given it 5 stars if there was a user manual.

As someone who works on multiple PCs at the same time, this thing is perfect. It's got that great Logitech feel and it switches between devices nice and easy. Sadly, I'm normally one of those people who only complain about things in reviews, but this is one of those cases I have to say this keyboard and mouse is great. The Logi software is also really great, it adds a lot of functionality to the mouse. Having said all that, the only negative is it is a little pricey for what it is.
