With the Speedlink Empera I experienced the purest revelation. The set comes up with everything the headline promises: a pleasing, well thought out design (the compact arrangement of the function keys in addition to, not beyond the keyboard area, great!), A good processing of all components; Mouse and keyboard are well in hand, so that even hours of work is pleasant possible. At the same time allows the function to increase the sample rate of the mouse, quite well, to plunge into action-packed video games. Increasing this, the mouse sucks their current stock Although quite quickly empty, but overall battery consumption is comparable to other wireless mice. Of course, the reaction rate can anyway and even with the keyboard nothing to be desired. The volume of the key press is moderate in both components; the range of the radio receiver up to my expectations, to four meters interference-free reception is possible.
Of course there had to be a catch somewhere, how could it be otherwise? Exceptionally makes in this set does not the mouse Sperenzchen as it so often is the case with competing products, but the keyboard! Very often, sometimes six hours not, sometimes every ten minutes lost the keyboard her mind:. Buttons to regiren nicmehr (keys unresponsive) or activated szzzzzzzzzzzzich vo n alone (activated by itself), certain key combinations got stuck, so for example after Press Ctrl + Alt + Esc, any keystroke opened the Task Manager. I believed he could isolate the problem to heavy usage; the error occurred primarily on the rapid writing documents or in video games; but he turned a seemingly anlasslos. Only restart the PC to let the darn thing to bring back to their senses; an off and on, or removal and reconnection of the radio receiver brought no improvement.
Without this mistake the Empera would have offered the best value for money of all time. But since other reviewers also reported connection problems, I have to assume that it has not just caught a Monday only product. Therefore, I am in the meantime changed to Fujitsu. Pity! Speedlink has good ideas in terms of functionality and design, and for years I use a Speedlink headset to my complete satisfaction. This purchase now however unfortunately proved once again as a handle in the toilet.
As a precaution in handling the supplied batteries should be advised! A I had to change, because she hissed (!), And a little later they actually expired. Since the battery of another manufacturer comes as Speedlink, this ugly incident has not been accepted in the following review found.
Conclusion: Unfortunately, flawed and not recommended. 2/5
