The mouse has a cool feature, a button on the right side that serves as a magnifying glass.
One feature that I like is at the top right of the keyboard there are volume up and volume down buttons.
My favorite feature about this mouse and keyboard set is the built-in macro capabilities that come with it.
I have programmed macros to speed up my production in several programs, and it was very simple to set up!
Wireless range is acceptable to sit on a desk and never move.
