havit Mechanical Keyboard and Mouse Combo RGB Gaming 104 Keys Blue Switches Wired USB Keyboards with Detachable Wrist Rest, Programmable Gaming Mouse for PC Gamer Computer Desktop (Black)

*** Update 9/2/2020 ***Havit reached out to me after seeing my original review (below). I am revising my review to 5 star to consider the excellent customer support (refund). I REALLY appreciate it when a company is proactive in keeping customers happy.This keyboard is still a really cool gaming keyboard, with enough flashly lights and shortcuts for any hardcore gamer on a budget. For fast typing, I may have just gotten a bad batch of the bunch.*** Original Review ***I saw a lot of excellent reviews and was looking for a decent mechanical keyboard to use for typing. As an inexpensive keyboard and my first LED lit one, it's not bad. But I'm not too impressed with the performance. My pros and cons:Pros:- No driver installation needed for any of the mouse functions. This was really convenient. The controlling of the LED patterns, speed, brightness, etc. etc are all built directly into it.- The LED lights are cool. It's always about the lights! The included mouse also has some pretty neat colors as well.- Mouse DPI controls are built right in with the various levels. The built-in LED strip changes color to indicate the DPI settnig.- Has a nice mechanical click feeling. But that's about it.Cons:- I CANNOT TYPE CORRECTLY ON THIS KEYBOARD. I can average around 90-100 WPM on a membrane keyboard, but for some reason the keys are registering out of order a LOT. Here is an example sentence with no corrections:"The quick brow nfox jumped over the lazy sleeping dog. The quic kbrown fox jumped over the lazy sleeping dog.The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy sleeping dog . The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy sleping dog.The quick brown fox jumped voer the lazy sleeping dog The quick brown fox jumped over the alzy sleepnig dog."- I went about 70 WPM and can usually run that quick without making that many mistakes. I'm noticing that the "i" key and the spacebar sometimes doesn't register after the audible "click". Maybe it's me, but characters are also showing up out of order (e.g., "voer" instead of "over")- The mouse is too big. I don't have HUGE hands. But I have a piano player's fingers (long) and I am finding that the body of the mouse feels just a little too large- Did I mention that sometimes the keys don't register?Maybe I got a bum keyboard, or maybe I'm just not used to it yet. I honestly don't like how much the key has to travel from being pressed to registering it, and as a fast(ish) typer it really is annoying me.

I just received this Keyboard and mouse combo yesterday. They are replacing a much pricer Razer combination. I was having issues with my Razer KB. I primarily use the computer for work (IT) not gaming. I started typing in the early 80s when mechanical KBs were the norm. This Keyboard has a great mechanical feel. I am used to the clicity clack these keyboards make - but do note it is a bit loud - Especially if you aren't used to it. I was very sceptical of the quality of this combo because of price - but it had good reviews and cost less than 1/3 the cost to replace with another Razer setup. I can honestly say I think the build quality is better than the Razer products. I did some high speed typing runs on this thing yesterday - no ghosting (duplicate keypresses), and it was comfortable and familiar at the same time. The build quality of the KB is VERY sturdy - and feels like quality. In regards to the RGB - it looks good, and has many modes. The RGB is not as programmable as the Razer - but honestly it has a mode and color combo to fit anyone's tastes - I did not buy for the RGB features so I cannot really knock it - it would be nice if you could control the RGB using software. The mouse is OK - it seems a bit light for my taste, but it performs as expected - and is a great mouse for the price. Overall I would highly recommend this combo for the price - you won't be disappointed that you saved over $80.00 vs some of the competitors.

My expectations were not that high given the price. I am pleasantly surprised. For the price point, the keyboard works very well and has a decent feel. Same with the mouse, even for FPS twitch gaming.My frame of reference is expensive high performance mechanical keyboards. I spend so much time driving one that a very good keyboard is a necessity. This product may not be that, but I have zero issues using it for casual gaming or general use. I do not use it solely, or frequently for that matter, and would not expect it to hold up to near constant professional use over time. For periodic use with a laptop and guest gaming rig it has been great. Have I mentioned the annoying RGBs?The keyboard has a pleasing clicky and positive feel. The mouse is responsive, reasonably fast and accurate. Mouse buttons are fine. The mouse itself is a little larger than many and doesn't feel quite as nice as many high end gaming mice, but it is quite serviceable once one adapts to it.The RGB lighting is something I detest. Others will consider it an attractive feature. Had there been a non-RGB version I would have bought it. Thankfully, it can be controlled. It would be nice to have a hard switch to disable it. The software for the keyboard from Havit's site works well to tame to RGBs antics.If you need an inexpensive keyboard and mouse combo, and like LED silliness, this may be the keyboard for you. Even if you don't want the LED behaviors, a few keystrokes should allow you to find a tolerable lighting mode.To be clear, I'd buy this again if there wasn't something comparable available without RGB. I don't expect it to last forever but at this price, it is hard to go wrong. Easily bests the truly disposable keyboards often sold at almost the price of this one.
