Review on πŸ–₯️ Get Your Hands on Microsoft Desktop 3000 Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo by Jnis Krsli ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fits the description completely, very satisfying.

The touch key on the mouse works fine in Linux. On Ubuntu 14.04, I just went into the key assignments and tied swipes on the key to the desired actions. Of the additional functionality keys, multimedia keys and a calculator call key immediately work. The remaining keys can also be assigned through the key assignment settings if necessary. Some pros: Keyboard: - Good workmanship - Quiet keys - Classic layout. Of the differences, only doubled Delete, shifted up Insert and removed the right Windows and Break. - Wrist rest upholstered in artificial leather, very pleasant to the touch - Ability to switch the left half of the space to Backspace mode (hardware function) - Keys for additional functionality Mouse: - Also great quality - Pleasant rubber coating on the sides - Horizontal scroll wheel - Touch side key that recognizes up and down swipes. Vibration when recognizing a swipe. - Magnetic platform on the bottom for carrying the transmitter. Has some cons: - There is no way to choose which half of the space to convert to Backspace mode. Because of the toys, I used to press the spacebar with my left hand, and now, in order to use this chip, I have to relearn how to press the spacebar with my right hand. - No CapsLock, NumLock indicators. Although personally it is not critical for me. Yes, and many wireless keyboards have this feature. - A mouse with a glossy finish picks up fingerprints, but they're not noticeable unless you look closely.
