Labtec Ultra-Thin WIRELESS mouse and media keyboard.

Advantages: Wireless, bargain, good range, LOCK lights on receiver, optical,
Disadvantages: fragile, eats batteries

I bought for around eight quid in CancerResearch as a present for fathers day - brilliant bargain. First of all; the bad: The keyboard seems TOO light and a bit fragile. The mouse eats up AAs because of the laser, I STRONGLY suggest you buy rechargeables from Aldi for £3, this will save you LOADS of cash in the long run. Second; the good: The range is amazing! It says 5m on the box but if you place the receiver well you can get 7! The receiver has ...
...lights which I find quite useful. You can use it in conjunction with your old wired deskset as well. You don't have to use both the mouse and the keyboard. Verdict: All in all, a brilliant product from a brilliant manufacturer, just don't give it to the more violent types in the family. ...

Labtec keyboard

Advantages: Cheap and effective.
Disadvantages: Shows dust

...the rest. Presentation: The labtec standard keyboard comes in black and is straight and very geometric in design. It offers no curves on which to rest your hands for comfort when typing. However, for me, this has not been an issue. The figures on the keys are printed in white and stand out easily against the black base coat. In the top right corner of the keyboard are the the num, caps and scroll lock lights, which are lit up green when the according ...
...addition, there is a small Labtec logo above the lights which doesn't really impact on the sleek appearance of tis product. The one problem i have found with this keyboard is that it shows dust very easily, but this can easily be solved with a wipe over with damp cloth - i use flash wipes (they remove all dust and also destroy the bacteria residing on your keyboards surface. They make your keyboard smell good :) Practicality: This keyboard measures ...

My new media keyboard

Advantages: Media Keys, Well balanced, Easy to set up, Cheap, Easy to Clean
Disadvantages: Keys sometimes stick

So,my old keyboard broke to the extent it seemed to short circuit the motherboard socket ( when it was plugged in it would reboot the pc, and also half the keys were set up wrong, eg caps lock would mute it etc) so i popped down to my local Argos to pick up a Keyboard. This seemed like what i needed, a cheap multimedia keyboard. And let me tell you, i love it. The Media keys work from within programs, so say your playinga quiet game, such as minesweeper ...
...music with the music key then press play etc along the top of the keyboard. It doesn't even change the window or anything, it just does it in the background, which is superb. It works from anything, as i have played games such as pro evo soccer and it will do it from there still. Its inclined at a good angle for your wrists and its not too tiring to type on it. The keys are just right in terms of responsiveness, so you don't have to hit it to make ...

Review of Labtec Media Keyboard - keyboard

Sleek and silver

Advantages: Cheap and efficient
Disadvantages: none as of yet

...better than my current keyboard. Labtec have quite a good name in this sphere although they have been prone to some bad press. I don’t think this is totally justified since most of their products are considerably cheaper than competitors, and in general terms you get what you pay for. I can’t see the point in paying twenty odd quid for a similar system, when this works just fine. The Mouse Both units are wireless and are connected to the ...
...a charger for the mouse. Placing the mouse in the charger/wireless adaptor ensures that it is always ready for use. It is a standard type mouse insomuch as that it has two buttons and a scroll wheel. I quite like the silver colour and the black contrast of the area around the wheel. I have found the mouse works very well and although it doesn't really need charging very often putting it into the charger when not in use certainly keeps it up to scratch. ...

Lovely Labtec

Advantages: Nice to use, pretty, useful features
Disadvantages: None

I was given a Labtec Ultra-Flat Keyboard for Christmas by my other half (he knows me well enough to know I'd be thrilled with this). He knew that I'd been wanting a new keyboard for a while, and specifically wanted one that was more like a "laptop keyboard", i.e. flat and with 'clicky' keys, and this is exactly what I got with this keyboard. Made by Labtec (who cite themselves as "a leading provider of value-priced peripherals and accessories for ...
...well as being super-pretty, the Labtec Ultra-Flat Keyboard is functional. Obviously, it has all the usual keys (you know the ones, A-Z, 1-0, Enter, a Spacebar and all that), and as I do a LOT of typing, I'd say it was fairly sturdy and hard-wearing. Fair enough, I've only really had it for 3 months, but it's still like new - all of the keys are still in perfect workng order, and none of the writing has faded from them (not even off W,S,A or D - by ...
