Logitech MK295 Silent Wireless Keyboard and Mouse

The Logitech MK295 is a full-size wireless keyboard and mouse combo built around quiet keys, for offices, shared rooms and late-night desks where the sound of typing carries further than you would like. The keyboard uses SilentTouch keys, which keep the noise of a full working session down without making the typing feel vague, in a full-size layout with a numpad for anyone who works with figures. Both devices run over a 2.4 GHz USB receiver, so the pair takes one port and needs no pairing routine. Battery life is the other headline, at up to 36 months on the keyboard and 18 months on the mouse. The combo carries a 1 year warranty. It is aimed at everyday work rather than competitive gaming: writing, spreadsheets, browsing, email and study, where reliability and quiet matter more than a few milliseconds of response time. In a household where one person works while another sleeps, or a shared office with several desks in a small room, the silent keys are the whole point. The long battery life also keeps it working through a stretch without mains power, and a spare set of cells will sit unused for a long time.
