SABLUTE MA12 Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo

Key smudging.

This is a nice set. Both keyboard amd mouse work great, and I really like the various lighting modes. They hold their charge for about 3.5 days of work. I'm sure I could push it to 4 days, but they start blinking to let you know when to charge them again. The only thing really wrong with this set is the keys. The black paint on the keys started to smudge after only 6 months of use. This is a huge drawback for me. It still functions perfectly. No issues with the backlighting at all. No issues with the mouse at all.

Keys Rubbed off

I have owned this less than 1 year and the key pads are already rubbing off. The “A” is already gone and the Right SHIFT bar and now the “F”, “C”, “J”, “S”, and “K” are fading.

UPDATE: Contacted the company and they said that I could reorder a new one and they would take $5.00 off the price. NO THANK YOU. Horrid customer service. Not ordering from them again!

Doesn't last

Within 2 months the lettering started wearing off the keys. I type all day, but I have never had a keyboard keys wear out. Just tacky. Also the charge wears out really fast and without warning. They keyboard or mouse just stops. Wasted my money.

Scuffed already

The good? It holds a charge nicely enough for everyday use. The colors are pretty and bright. It types well - some times the connection can get wonky if you have a video port next to it.

The bad. It's already wearing. My last keyboard only started to wear after about 4 years of daily WFH use. This one has the keys rubbing off and it's barely 6 months old.

The mouse is a deal breaker for me

I have been looking for a successor to the discontinued Logitech K800 keyboard (wireless, rechargeable, backlit, uses Logitech's programmable Unifying Receiver). This ain't it.

I had not thought very much about mouse design and shapes for a long time, until this one. The upshot is that the sides of the mouse are flat, tapered, and slick, so that when I apply a normal (for me) amount of pressure between my thumb and ring/pinky fingers to grip the mouse, it rises off the surface, pushing the mouse buttons up into my index and middle fingers, resulting it unwanted clicks. (see photo)

Since the keyboard, mouse, and USB dongle are an immutable throuple, I can't just replace it with a better mouse and program the receiver to accept it.

I will say that I like that there is a magnet in the pocket on the bottom of the mouse where the USB dongle is stored, so it snaps in easily, feel secure, and pops out easily when I want to retrieve. So it has that going for it, which is nice. Unfortunately, most of the time using a mouse is spent moving and clicking it, not storing and retrieving the dongle.

The whole shebang seems to otherwise work well enough. I haven't decided yet if I am going keep this as a backup or return it.

Customer Service Was Top Notch

I originally bought this for my Steam Deck for ease of use for desktop mode and for controlling my laptop from afar and since I bought it I've had no issues whatsoever! They both worked great and for the price I got them for (on sale) they were a package deal that helped me greatly for what I needed.

The problem I had with it came recently, however, when the dongle itself broke. It did not do that on its own or due to time, it just broke thanks to an accident and so it resulted in the keyboard and mouse becoming useless. I was dreading to have to find another keyboard and mouse since the sale price I got this for had passed and I couldn't afford to rebuy it or another one similar, and it'd be a shame since the mouse and keyboard still worked just fine they just couldn't connect to anything. So I took a chance and contacted the seller to see if it were possible to simply replace the broken dongle and they surprised me with a response, and thankfully they still had the dongle in stock! They shipped it out to me asap and gave me instructions on how to reconnect and all I had to do was wait.

So now that I got it here and with the instructions they gave I was able to use the two again without fault, and this time I will know to be more careful. I wouldn't have been able to fix the issue if not for the stellar customer service given by the company and appreciate it greatly. I will continue to use this product for as long as it lasts, as it's still serving me well to this day since I bought it last year.

Letters are erasing!!

I bought this to use at work and give my space some color. I'm still in the return window but tossed the box or I would return this product. I can't believe the letters are smudging! I would not buy this product again.

Keyboard works great, though paint wore off. Good support though.

Update: Company is refunding my order after they read my issue in an effort to provide better support. They have good customer support.

Functional keyboard unless you want to know what letter key you are using. Both the mouse and keyboard work, but all the paint wears off the keys on the keyboard leaving a blank white space.

Wears out fast

Keys wear off quickly bought this in September and several keys are now missing letters

I Like It But...

I like this keyboard but...the letters are coming off on 3 keys already. I also wish the lights would stay on continuously. Other than that...no complaints.

Amazing...

It is exactly as described. its perfect. the keyboard has a nice sound and feels good. the light options are pretty cool too, also has a pretty long charge.

Not withstanding time.... any time.

At first, everything was great. Just purchased this keyboard early Sept. this year. Already one key has broken off and the letter "E" is almost worn out. I'm no expert, but I think this keyboard should last longer than 3 months.

Keyboard

Nice

Very Comfortable

This keyboard and mouse are as great size. They are comfortable to use, and the noises from the keyboard are not annoying. The keyboard is also a good angle for me, though a little more of an incline would help. I love that they hold a long charge. I type and use my mouse for copy and paste a lot while working, and these hood a good charge all day. I usually charge the keyboard overnight, and the mouse is fully charged while I drink my coffee before I log in to work, less than 30 minutes. I always turn both off when not in use. The single USB dongle for both is also wonderful.

Poor quality keyboard lettering

This keyboard is brand new and you can see already that the letter E has completely worn out. So disappointing.

I’m so sad about the lights but customer service is great!

Edit: they quickly sent me a replacement and so far it’s working great! 🎉

I had super high hopes, I loved the picture on the ad. It’s pretty. The whole point in buying an RGB keyboard is for the lights. When I got it- it was stunning!! Instantly fell in love. Unfortunately after a month, some of the lights have turned white. They flash white while in rgb mode and even if I choose a solid color, they’re still ruined. I know it’s just an aesthetic but without the lights it’s just a plain keyboard and I could buy one of those much cheaper. I’m sad y’all. 😭

keyboard mouse combo

Was on a search for a keyboard and mouse that didn’t break my pockets and had multiple rgb lighting options and comfort. The battery life is great also. just wish it was Bluetooth like the other competitors but it does the job

Nice but…

I like the “softness” of the keys and the quietness of it as well. BUT.. the durability is questionable. I received the keyboard on 6/10 and started using it at work on 6/12. The attached picture is from today 7/27. The black on the keys don’t have much “staying” power. I am curious to see how long it takes to “lose” more of the keys… thankfully I have letter keys memorized! 😆

The Keyboard is great the mouse not so much

So when i got this set up I am throughly pleased with the keyboard. The lights are nice and i love how i can set it to be one continuous color if so desired.

The mouse has some crazy drifting problems as i have displayed in the video. You will see it is just sitting there and the mouse moves all over the place like a ghost in the machine. If the mouse didnt drift this would easily be a 5 star.

Regret buying

The keys are loud, there is vibration when you type, and the keystrokes frequently don’t register. I deeply regret making this purchase but it’s too late to return it now because I’ve been using it out of desperation. Hopefully this saves someone else. I bought this hoping it would be quiet and generally function well. It serves neither purpose. And if your phone/tablet has a case, then it won’t hold those either. Don’t bother with this one.

Sleek & Quiet!!

I love how sleek and light it is, bright colors and you can change the level of brightness. Its totally quiet when typing and mouse click. There is a nice slot to put an iPad or phone in which is great! I love that after a few moments of idle the lights go off to save on battery life. So far so good!!!

It's cute

It's simple, cool color changing lights. I like how you can set it to one color, only reason I gave it 4 stats is because you can't set the mouse color, it just keeps rotating colors.

Love this set up!! Being the only woman in this facility, it brightens my day.

It is quiet and functional. I love the colors. I can change the settings to stay at one color or be a rainbow of colors. Perfect

Quality keyboard

Since I’ve been working from home, I am on the constant search for quality keyboards that are quiet and include a mouse that is quiet too. This fits the bill. I liked the packaging - it felt pretty premium opening the outer box, compared to other non name branded keyboard/mouse sets. It came packaged in a nice foam to prevent damage. The keys and mouse are very quiet, which I prefer. Nothing I can’t stand more in my home office than the sound of my constant typing and clicking of my mouse for 8-10 hours a day and annoying my coworkers over Zoom by the sound of my clicking and clacking if I forget to mute my mic. This keyboard came with a USBC adapter, which is a nice option since most newer laptops and slimmer desktops are extremely limited on USB ports. The extended wrist panel is also very nice, but I prefer my “gelly style” wrist support slightly better. Nothing saying I can’t use both. I like the pegs on the back to angle the keyboard. This set does need three batteries - Two AAA for the keyboard and one AA for the mouse - most truly wireless sets require batteries. Some are rechargeable but then you have a wire hanging from the keyboard when it charges. Matter of preference. I don’t mind it. I can’t speak to longevity of the battery life - I just received the set but would be happy if batteries last 6 months or longer before needing to change them. I suppose it varies based on overall usage but for a standard 40-50 hour work week, six months seems fair. This product worked out of the box - plug and play is the best - nothing to download on the computer to get it working. I like the small slot for tablet/phone. Overall, great combo set!

Great Trendy Keyboard That Works, Battery Life Might Be of Concern

This is a great keyboard that serves its purpose. It's definitely trendy and looks awesome with those 3 different modes of lighting: - Rainbow effect, Monochrome light that stays, and Ripple mode which will flash light on each key stroke when typing. These modes are activated by pressing the M1, M2, and M3 keys on the keyboard. There is also a light in the mouse that changes color at random and is controlled by the center button. Keyboard light or backlit can be turned off completely, but this can't be done with mouse light.

Keyboard light can be adjusted, but even at the lowest settings, it's very bright, and that won't be ideal for working in a completely dark room with others trying to sleep. This keyboard and mouse both have a very shallow form factor, and it's a membrane-based keyboard. I'm not very fond of typing on that kind of keyboard and mouse. That's a personal preference, but yes, it's indeed very quiet when I type on this, and that's good.

Pros:

1. Cool and Trendy: Color combinations on keyboard are just awesome and can add a bit of fashion to your game room or home office.

2. Quiet typing: When typing, the keyboard is very quiet, so you can write those long emails without worrying about annoying anyone with that typewriter sound.

3. Feels Sturdy: Both the mouse and keyboard have that rugged feel that suggests they would last longer.

Cons:

1. Smaller Battery and Longer Charge Time: The keyboard has 1600 mAh and the mouse has 650 mAh. Even with this smaller size, it takes a long time to charge. Charging time is 8 hours and 3 hours for the keyboard and mouse, respectively. With this small battery, I did expect a lot faster charge time.

2. Battery Drains Fast and Mouse Wakeup Time: I did observe that the mouse battery drains pretty quickly, and the mouse takes a bit to wake up. The keyboard seems to be working perfectly fine, both with the battery and wakeup time.

3. Slightly Expensive: Other brands of wireless keyboards and mice are available at a lower price and with a larger battery capacity. As a result, this appears to be slightly overpriced for what they offer.

Haven’t tried yet but looks good

So far so good. We haven’t used it yet bc I didn’t realize it needed batteries. I was expecting a charger like my Logitech one requires, so I have to wait to use. I will report back though. The keyboard is nice and light. Has a lip for your wrists to sit comfortably. Lots of keys. Comes with usb adapter and usb c adapter which is awesome bc they don’t always. My daughter has a Mac book M2 2022 and she requires the USB C adapter so that will work perfect. Comes with a nice mouse where they both can be used at the same time. Came packaged well but if this is a gift it is shipped with its originally box showing the items and logo. So far I am please. Will attest to how it works once I get the AAA batteries. Think requires 3. Comes with directions and or descriptions in a little booklet. Larger sized keyboard than most which are a good for us. Will be convenient. Got it bc my daughter has a laptop stand or riser and it now allows her to use a keyboard at level without having to raise her arms the wrong way issuing the Mac in the riser. It also allows for use of iPads tablets phones etc. there is a little cut out along the top of the keyboard which sits the tablet and or phone nicely so it stands propped up. Also another reason I got it. For the iPad. It will be good to use and hopefully lasts a while. Will report back.

Nice keyboard mouse combo, issue with lettering under certain lighting condition

Nice wireless keyboard/mouse combo. have some issues. Nice to have one usb dongle for both and dongle can be stored magnetically either on bottom of mouse or side of keyboard. The slim Keyboard has a really nice feel, quiet keys.

Minor issues: Mouse feels kinda cheap. The keyboard lettering can be difficult to see under certain lighting. If lighting is directly above it, you will not be able to see the lettering on the keys if the back lighting is off. The contour of the keys, the lettering, along with the sheen will cause a glare if you have lighting above the keyboard. Also the back lighting is not very even, the whole top row of keys (function keys) are much brighter than the rest of the keyboard when backlight is turned on.

Good Combo Wireless Keyboard and Mouse

This is a nice wireless keyboard set and mouse. The mouse fits into my hand very nicely. It is a very quiet and smooth mouse. The scroll wheel is very responsive. This mouse also has a feature on it that will move the cursor for you to prevent your monitor from hibernating. You have to activate this feature by holding the little button near the scroll wheel for 5 seconds. The keyboard is not as quiet as the mouse but it does feel good when you are typing. It functions the same way as any keyboard. Both the keyboard and mouse were very responsive and I did not notice any lag in performance. I really like this wireless keyboard set and it has met my expectations.

Colorful and Fun

I like the multiple color modes on this keyboard and it's fun to personalize. I'm really impressed with how quiet the button presses and mouse clicks are. A minor complaint I have is the height is not adjustable and the phone holder slot at the top is not wide enough to hold any phone with a case (if that's what it's for). Otherwise, I do recommend this keyboard.

Great for media server!

This is a really great keyboard and mouse set for a home theater PC! I'm using it for mine and it is great for when the lights are off you can still see the keyboard and mouse but they aren't obtrusive. Probably would be nice if the backlight could go a little dimmer than it does, bit still really good. It does allow some dimming just not a lot.

The mouse feels fairly light but works just great. The buttons have a fairly light touch to them and the wheel isn't weight and doesn't "spin freely" like my work mouse but in this case that is good. The buttons and wheel are pretty silent.

The keyboard feels pretty standard. Slightly bigger buttons and longer stroke than my laptop but not a mechanical keyboard of course. It has some good heft to it (probably from the battery) and doesn't feel cheap or flimsy.

Overall a good set with cool lighting.
