After completely charging both mouse and keyboard, we went ahead and used it to write some articles, browse the web but also process some Excel documents. The mouse feels comfortable, but there is not a lot of space left for the thumb rest, so the finger will basically mostly sit on the two left programmable buttons. We did really enjoy the silent sound signature of both left and right click buttons, while the scroll wheel is smooth and does not produce a disturbing sound when rotated. Depending on your hand size, you will use it in either a palm grip or fingertip grip, while the textured plastic will make sure your fingers won’t slip and there will be little to no wear to the surface in time.

The keyboard does incorporate CHERRY SX switches, with a lifetime of 20 million actuations; the keys are pleasant to the touch and the keyboard comes with a solid chassis thanks to the integrated metallic plate. The usual function keys are equipped with red LEDs so you will know when these are active, while the extra multimedia buttons are handy as separate keys, unlike other keyboards which have these as double functions for the function keys…we would have really enjoyed a Volume wheel though…

Both mouse and keyboard are optimized towards durability in time, without flashy stuff such as RGB, but also come with a great battery life from a single recharge (the maximum DPI the mouse can offer is 2400, enough for regular office work).

For more key customization, you can always install CHERRY KEYS, a basic software for most devices from the same company.

CHERRY STREAM DESKTOP RECHARGE is not the least expensive keyboard + mouse kit out there, but it is a product you can count on in terms of durability; cheaper versions come with regular batteries and less battery life, while with this model, CHERRY gives you the possibility to actually recharge the whole set and keep going for months!
