HP Multi-Device Dual-Mode Mouse and Keyboard Combo with Palm Rest 585C

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

For £43.88 ex‑VAT, the HP 585C combo is the kind of “works fine, don’t overthink it” setup you buy when you want clean desk productivity without paying premium for slickness. The palm rest is the real deciding factor for most people here — it makes longer typing sessions feel less brutal, and the dual-mode angle is useful if you bounce between devices (think laptop + tablet/phone) and don’t want to keep swapping peripherals. In a typical office/warehouse admin role, it’s a solid value: dependable enough, comfortable enough, and easy to roll out to users who just need to get work done.

That said, I wouldn’t buy it for heavy power users or anyone who’s picky about feel and responsiveness. If you’re a frequent typist or you care a lot about key feel, travel, or low-latency performance, this won’t scratch the “premium keyboard” itch — combos like this tend to prioritise convenience over keyboard character. Also, if your IT team wants a very uniform fleet experience, double-check pairing reliability across your specific device mix and OS versions before you standardise. Overall: good buy for general office staff who need one keyboard/mouse solution across multiple devices; less ideal if you’re buying for serious daily typing professionals.
