Taking a closer look at the mouse, it has a fairly plain-looking (kind of egg-shaped) design, with a basic shape and no LEDs.Despite the claims that it is an ergonomic mouse designed for comfort, at first glance the mouse didn�t look very ergonomic when compared to other mice, which have special contours to fit your hand (the comparison mouse is a Microsoft Intellimouse).The mouse is slightly �slanted�, with the left side being thicker than the right.Thus, the mouse is truly for right-handers only.

    I bought this keyboard for my fiance as a Christmas gift, and overall
    we’ve enjoyed it. The keyboard itself is fantastic, and the keys have a
    solid feel to them with a nice, even distribution for the backlight.

    Our
    only real issue is the battery life. The batteries fully drain about
    every 10 days or so, and this seems to be regardless of whether or not
    the backlight is on. You can plug in the keyboard via Micro USB, but
    it’s an unnecessary step for an otherwise great keyboard.
