Microsoft L5V-00018 Ergonomic Blue Track Technology Keyboard And Mouse - English And Arabic

Great keyboard if you are experiencing finger joint pain or wrist pain due to extensive use of keyboard. I have two now, one at home and one at office.

This is the only keyboard I am willing to use at the office. I was having pain in my wrist and the whole combo fixed it. At the beginning it seems weird because of the shape, nevertheless it is easy to adapt and the most beautiful thing is that it forces to use all the fingers, by reducing stress on hands and wrist.

Great quality so I gave 4 starsBut it is confusing me as the distribution of the keys are differentIt will be great if you can write without looking on the keyboardIf you are looking the you will spend efforts to find some keyNevertheless i am using it for a full month but till now I do a lot of typosMy last comment is the rest pads are catching dustI will buy another Logitech keyboard but for others it can be perfect

Disclaimer: I have not used many premium keyboards. Writing this review after a week of usage. Till now, i had been using standard wireless keyboard and mouse combos.PROS:-1) The detached number pad saves space for your mouse. I use multiple screens which is the main reason i bought this product.2) Provides better positions for your wrists, the keyboard as well as the mouse.3) Looks are premium and it appears exotic on the desk. It is surely an eye-catcher.4) Keystrokes are very smooth with minimal noise. Mouse clicks are normal, but not silent.CONS:-1) It will take time getting used to the newer layout for a starter.2) You will miss out on the shortcut keys. There is only 1 dedicated shortcut key for launching the calculator. This key is given on the keyboard as well as the number pad which is a waste i think.3) There is no function key. You are to use a toggle switch on the keyboard to alternate between function keys and shortcuts. This reduces your usage speed as you can only use one alternate at a time. I prefer using function keys for shortcuts and use alternate "Fn" key + functions when needed.4) The mouse wheel does not scroll anything horizontally except some browser pages. Such pages are very rare as most have vertical scroll bars only. It does not scroll MSExcel itself horizontally. MS Word does though.5) Similar to point 4, back button only works on browsers. This button should have been provided with customizing options.6) No DPI option available on the mouse.7) Better (but bulkier) products (Perrix) are available in market at the same or lesser priceOverall, Microsoft could have done a much much better job w.r.t the functionality provided in this set, even had they looked around the market to compare with other products.

The best keyboard ever. Back lit would make this keyboard spectacular.I bought it again after years of usage because my little son broke it.

I have 3, 2 at work and one at home. Super comfortable and comes with the Arabic letters too. Great price point, hard to find in local shops

I suffer from RSI. This is about as good as it gets as an ergonomic typing system before moving to non qwerty weirdness

Broke after only one week of having the keyboard!
