HP 655 Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo G2 (BlkQty.9)

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

For £625.96 ex-VAT, this feels wildly overpriced for what it is: an HP wireless keyboard and mouse combo. In the real world, most people buying office peripherals aren’t paying for exotic features—they want reliable wireless, decent ergonomics, and a serviceable warranty. A “combo” at this price should be doing something notably better than the cheaper tier (better build, fewer connection hiccups, noticeably nicer typing, superior battery life), and unless you have a specific HP-managed fleet requirement, it’s hard to justify compared with plenty of lower-cost business-grade bundles that do the basics just as well.

I *would* consider it only if you’re standardising for procurement reasons—e.g., your estate already leans heavily on HP hardware/software support, or you’re rolling peripherals out across a controlled environment where consistent branding and support pathways matter. Otherwise, my advice is: don’t buy it as a general office standard. Put the budget into something that improves productivity more directly (better desks/chairs, monitors, or higher-quality keyboards if people complain about typing comfort). If your users are heavy typists or you need long-duty, ergonomic setups, you’ll usually get better value by buying a more purpose-fit keyboard separately rather than paying a premium for a generic combo.
