Microsoft Wireless Keyboard 5000 Usb Replacement

I used to own a Kensington wireless mouse because I liked how it looked. But it had lousy wireless connectivity and it constantly dropped its signal for no apparent reason. Seeking to replace it, I came across the Microsoft mouse at my neighborhood consumer electronics retailer. I found this same mouse at B&H for $20 less. I love this mouse. It's got a stylish appearance, the wireless signal is rock solid...no more dropped connections and it tracks great. I also like how I can easily power it off to save battery life. The only drawback is that it requires its own USB antenna so when you're using Microsoft's equally stylish wireless keyboard, you're using up 2 USB ports: one for the mouse antenna and one for the keyboard antenna

I use the arc wireless mouse by microsoft. This product is great, the mouse fits well in the hand. The usb transciever is very small and has less risk of breaking or damage while in the computer. One disadvantage is that if you have a lot of programs running, then the mouse lags,,

This was a replacement for an off brand wireless keyboard. This works so much better and has been reliable and comfortable!

It works much better than the previous Microsoft 5000 mouse that frequently lost the bluetooth connection. The only concern is the cost.....too high.

I was looking for a wireless keyboard and found this, having the usb work as a wireless receiver for the mouse and keyboard its super convenient.

This keyboard has a plug in usb and can be wireless unless charging. It connects better plugged in all the time.

I've been using the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard (4000?) for years. I've found that I need to see the keys more often and thought the old keyboard quite large. While looking for low-vision keyboards I found this illuminated model. I thought I'd never adapt to or like a flat keyboard like this but I was so wrong. This is the best keyboard I've ever used. Easy strike, silent, and I can see the keys without bright room lighting -- even without my glasses! A full numbers layout, easy extra function keys, great configuration, easy setup, and a sophisticated appearance. Love it. Highly recommended for everyone at all skill levels.

I've used this for just 2 weeks, but it's the perfect replacement for my Apple wireless keyboard. It's virtually identical except it lies flatter on my desk since it obviously doesn't have the battery compartment (they did include optional sticky rubber pads to tilt the keyboard forward). I replaced my old wireless keyboard since I bought the new 2020 M1 Mac Mini and immediately had the bluetooth issues others have complained about. Weirdly enough, I could solve my keyboard issue by turning my Apple mouse off and on, but it got annoying. Right now, this wired keyboard is perfect, buttons all work as they should, choices of backlighting or not, controls sound levels as well as all the other functions I'm accustomed to using. Plus, no cost of feeding AA batteries to the wireless. Time will tell, but right now, I am satisfied, even if Apple finally does resolve their bluetooth issue.

This keyboard was the replacement I was hoping for.

No aftermarket keyboard works as well as the Microsoft Pro Type. And, B&H had it in stock when no one else did.
