Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop 7000

The Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop 7000 is both a cool-looking and ergonomic keyboard/mouse combo.

Beautiful look with a thin profile and an ergonomic design. Rechargeable mouse. Useful hot keys. Quick and easy wireless pairing.

Picks up smudges easily. Somewhat expensive.

Review: Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop 7000

With the Wireless Laser Desktop 7000, Microsoft has designed a wireless keyboard and mouse that work well on the Mac, both in an aesthetic sense (especially with the aluminum iMac) and in terms of practical hands-on experience.

The Desktop 7000 uses the 2.4GHz spectrum for wireless connectivity, not Bluetooth, so that means you must attach a USB receiver to your Mac. One receiver works for both the keyboard and mouse. Microsoft claims a 30-foot range; in my testing, I had no...

Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop 7000 Review

Microsoft has been making wireless keyboard and mouse combos for years and today we are going to take a look at its latest set. The Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop 7000 is the long name for this Aero-inspired desktop. Aside from good looks, how well...

Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop 7000

A sleek and ergonomic wireless peripheral package

Comfortable to use, looks good, lots of features

Keyboard isn't rechargeable

Another solid wireless peripheral package from Microsoft, the Wireless Laser Desktop 7000 offers a great combination of comfort, style and features. We'd have liked to see the keyboard match the mouse and come with a docking station for charging, but...

Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop 7000

As usual, Microsoft puts together a good bit of kit. But is it good enough to beat the competition?

The biggest difference between the 7000 and its lower-numeral sibling is that this mouse comes with its own charging station. Now for those of you who, like me, who don't like perishable, non-replaceable batteries, I've some good news: this rodent uses...

Wireless Laser Desktop 7000 review

Microsoft unleashes another great keyboard and moue set

Comfortable to use ; Feels great ; Shortcut keys help

Pricey for some

This is a really great keyboard and mouse set. IN fact, you'll struggle to find one better, anywhere.

Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 7000

If you spend plenty of time at your desk then you need a good mouse. You might be able to get them for a couple of quid, but a good mouse is like a good pair of shoes; they will stand you in good stead. Microsoft's latest offering promises to do just...

Low profile, rechargeable, customisable buttons

Not much

The software and mouse perform well with a good level of sensitivity (it can be turned down if is too sensitive) and comfort, the rechargeable option over the Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 is worth the extra cash, if merely to save you the bother...

Microsoft Wireless Notebook Laser Mouse 7000

Sometimes it is too easy to overlook Microsoft as an peripheral supplier. We look at their Wireless Notebook Laser Mouse 7000. Starting with the wireless aspect, it is a standard 2.4GHz wireless setup, with a USB dongle. The dongle slots neatly into...

Left- or right-handed, good size, plenty of buttons, Flip 3D

Dongle doesn’t sit flush in base of mouse

Compact in design, but large enough to be your everyday mouse, the Wireless Notebook Laser Mouse 7000 has plenty of features to meet your mousey needs.
