Manufacturer description

The Logitech MK250 Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse Combo pairs a compact K250 keyboard with the ambidextrous M196 mouse, and it skips the USB dongle entirely — Bluetooth pairing takes seconds and leaves every USB port on your laptop free. The K250 squeezes a full number pad, arrow keys, and F-key shortcuts into a space-saving layout, so you keep spreadsheet-friendly data entry without surrendering half your desk. Deep-profile keys and an adjustable tilt leg let you set the typing angle you actually want, and the spill-resistant design covers the coffee mishaps a busy home office…

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Logitech MK250 need a USB dongle or receiver?

No. The MK250 is Bluetooth-only and pairs directly with your computer or tablet, so no USB port is used. Your device must have working Bluetooth, since there is no receiver included as an alternative.

Does the MK250 keyboard have a number pad?

Yes. Despite the space-saving layout, the K250 keyboard includes a full number pad along with arrow keys and F-key shortcuts, so data entry and spreadsheet work do not require a separate numpad.

How long does the battery last on the MK250?

Logitech rates the keyboard for 12 months of daily use before a battery change, and the M196 mouse for 12 months as well. Actual life varies with usage; check the product listing for battery type and replacement details.

Can left-handed users use the M196 mouse?

Yes. The M196 has a smooth ambidextrous shape designed to guide either hand into a natural position. It carries three buttons, none of which are customizable, so button remapping for either hand is not an option.
