Office peripherals are often sold as 2-in-1 kits consisting of a keyboard and mouse at once. This solution has several advantages. Firstly, thanks to the use of a single radio module, fewer free USB ports are required. Secondly, they are better combined. Thirdly, the kit is often cheaper than buying a keyboard and mouse separately. When completing a working office with 50+ seats, this can play an important role.


In the Microsoft assortment, you can find several well-proven kits that belong to different series. The simplest and safest option is the Wireless Desktop series kits ― for example, WD2000 or WD3500. Usually, they include a pumped membrane keyboard with a handstand and additional keys, as well as an ergonomic symmetrical mouse with a BlueTrack sensor. The difference between them usually lies in the number of additional keys and the type of mouse. In entry-level Wireless Desktop kits like the WD 850, low-cost optical sensors are installed in the mice instead of the BlueTrack.

Ergonomic 2-in-1 kits from the Sculpt series look much more interesting and unusual. Speaking about this series, first of all it is necessary to note the unusual curved shape of the keyboard, which seems to float under the hands, trying to ensure the natural position of the brushes. As for mice, they are usually equipped with a 4D scroll wheel and a small touchpad that plays the role of a touchpad. With it, you can quickly manage Windows by flipping through windows, browser pages, open documents or the Start menu. Otherwise, it is, without a doubt, a high-end and rather expensive peripheral.
