Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Logitech Cordless Desktop EX110 (967561-0403)
Customer Review: Very good, streamlined version, at a lower price
Summary: 5 Stars
I am very surprised with the negative reviews this has gotten. It seems to be an excellent unit to me.
First off, I have been using wireless mouse/keyboard combinations for several years because it eliminates clutter on the desk. The general drawback is that you have to change batteries from time to time, and once in a while you have to press the connect button if something goes wrong. But getting rid of the wires is worth it to me.
I purchased SIX of the EX110's for a server room application, and they are working great. They are channel matched so they don't interfere with one another.
The EX110 vs. others:
- EX110 is surprisingly inexpensive -- this is a great price
- EX110 is smaller -- that's a pro for me in my application but some might like a bigger keyboard
- Other units have a lot more features (which I don't need) like directly launching various applications and such.
For simply getting the wires off your desk, this is a winner.
Customer Review: Buy the Logitech LX 300 for only a few dollars more..
Summary: 2 Stars
I also own the logitech laser LX3000 and the LX 700, and I initially liked the EX 110 for its cheap price, light weight, and small foot print (or lap print in my case). I've concluded that despite these benefits, in my opinion, this keyboard is cheaply made, and you get what yo pay for. The keys have a cheap feel to them, and the buttons on top look and feel low quality. I can already hear a very small piece rattling around in the keyboard that must have broken off from somewhere and I've only had this keyboard a few days. I guess it's good if you want something cheap and plan on upgrading in a few months, but you're better off with the LX 300 or better which is heavier and more solidly build. The reason I don't like the more expensive models is because they add buttons and features that most people, including me, don't need or want, but you're also paying more for top quality that feels better. The mouse is also junky; it's not ergonomic (curved for comfort) and the scroll wheel makes a lot of noise.Customer Review: Good keyboard & mouse pairing
Summary: 4 Stars
A good, solid product from Logitech. Nothing flashy but does the job well. One interesting incident that occured while setting up - I'd powered up the mouse that came with this set before I'd plugged in the receiver to the PC. I have two PC's close to each other at home, one of which already had a cordless keyboard and mouse (also from Logitech), the other was to get the new cordless set. As I brought the new mouse into range, it immediately hooked up with the existing PC's receiver, so much so that the mouse attached to that PC stopped working and ceded control to the new mouse! It took a few minutes to figure out what had happened, and when I connected the new receiver to the PC and pressed the Connect button with the new mouse close by, order was restored.
No complaints about either mouse or keyboard, thought the keyboard is a little small; it feels a little like typing on a large smartphone than on a PC keyboard. It's a matter of getting used to; I'd still buy another if I had to
Customer Review: Nice Price with Crazy Hidden Cost
Summary: 2 Stars
I would like to give this set 4 stars when I got it first day. The reasons are cheap price with wirelss function even the quality is soso.
However, I change my mind after 2 week. The worse thing is the power consumption. The mouse bottom sense red light is always ON, even you truned off the computer. I believe the keyboard does, too. (Keyboard has no LED light for me to tell, but you can know per change battery period.) This set is a crazy battery drinker.
In addition, this set requires way more battery power to work normally. I take out the batteries after the mouse losing control and put batteries into my old Logitech mouse (Logitech LX5 Cordless Optical Mouse). OMG, it still can work for extra 2 weeks.
I just wanna give this battery drinker 1 star after I used it 1 month.
Overall, the end out is 2 stars from its advantages and disadvantages. I would say "Don't look at its current price, but think about your future cost."
Customer Review: Inexpensive option for your Wii!
Summary: 5 Stars
I picked this keyboard up for my Wii since it was the cheapest wireless option I could find. It works amazingly well. Less than 5 minutes after opening the box, I was typing a message to one of my Wii friends!
One thing I would like to point out is this: The included mouse is PS/2 ONLY - not USB with a PS/2 adapter like the keyboard is. My laptop doesn't have a PS/2 port, so the mouse is pretty much useless to me. Also, the keyboard and mouse share a receiver, so you can't use them on two separate systems. This isn't really clear in the description above, so I thought I'd point it out.
So in summary: if you're looking for a cheap wireless keyboard for your Wii (or a computer hooked up to your TV), this is a GREAT option. I'm not a fan of the mouse, but for the price the keyboard more than makes up for it.
*Note: in order to use this keyboard with the Wii you must download the latest system updates. Visit nintendo.com for details*
