Review on Black Microsoft Wireless πŸ’» Desktop 850 with AES Encryption (PY9-00001) by Renee Stahl

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great price and great performance with one huge defect

I love this keyboard and mouse combo. It is very inexpensive and works perfectly. I've had it for a little over a month and use it in combination with my laptop and desktop monitor and it's the best system I've ever had. The keys are soft and light-clicking, very easy to type, and very responsive. The mouse is precise and easy to use. A HUGE issue I had was that about a week after starting to use the mouse the battery cover popped out and the mouse stopped working. You'd think the lid would stay closed when you're on a flat surface, but that's not the case. The first two or three times I turned it back on and kept working, but this happened more and more often. I thought it was broken, but I tested it and found it wasn't; it just won't close and keeps opening. I thought about returning it, but instead I turned to the main tool of duct tape. A tiny strip of tape in the right place did the trick (see my photos). It's not cute, but it works. Again, this could have been a defect in my device, but it looks like a design flaw in the product. Otherwise I am very happy with this purchase.

Pros
  • good stuff
Cons
  • no mold required
