Review on HAVIT Wired Mechanical Keyboard Mouse Headset Kit: Blue Switch Keyboards, Gaming Mouse & RGB Headphones for Laptop Computer PC Games by Heidi Davis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good price in this price range. Worth a try!

I searched for a long time before I decided on this set and to this day I have not regretted it. The quality of all things is good, the functionality is good. The keyboard is comfortable to type on. The headphones sound ok (could be louder but that's common for most on my system) and the mic on them is ok too. The mouse looks good and performs adequately, but if you enjoy gaming and want more functional side buttons, I'd go with something else as it seems to interrupt input from other buttons when one of the side buttons is pressed at the same time. . (Not a problem for me since I don't use them.) Pros: Good price. Good build quality. Good performance. The keyboard has a lot of nice extra features like programmable custom color layouts, animation settings, brightness settings, media and volume function keys, etc. The branding isn't distracting as it just has a cool little logo instead of a big text label with the brand name. on topic. A palm rest is not required. (I don't use them.) Cons: The viewing angle of the numeric/uppercase/scrolling keyboard display makes it a bit difficult to look at at first glance, but not too much. (and it doesn't matter because the button itself also changes color) The side mouse buttons are limited to pressing one button at a time when in use, and there are limited LED color settings. The headphone LEDs only work in single color cycle mode and can't be changed at all, but I knew it was happening. I just leave USB power off for this so it doesn't conflict with the color settings for my other stuff. Additional Notes: Mine had obviously opened the package before I received it as the twisted zip ties on the headphone cable were messy and the cable itself was not wrapped properly. The protective plastic coating was also removed and reattached askew. We can say that at some point it was taken out of the box and used. (It's possible for the buyer to return it, but I can't confirm that.) The package was also heavily dented on the inside and several keys on the keyboard were chipped off. However, I reinstalled them and everything seems fine. I'm giving a 5 star rating because it relates to their actual function. While I'm not happy to pay full price for a possible customer return, I won't let that reflect an actual evaluation of the products' performance. (Just remember you can experience this too.)
