Honest Review: Rii Keyboard & Mouse for Work & Play

After seeing some hype around the Rii keyboard and mouse combo, I decided to try it out for my home office and gaming setup. I mainly wanted something affordable that could handle daily work tasks and casual gaming sessions. I ran into some issues with the build quality and responsiveness, which made me wonder if I should stick with my old peripherals or give this a real shot.

I’ve heard mixed reviews—some say it’s surprisingly decent for the price, while others mention lag and durability problems. Has anyone here used the Rii combo extensively? Should I invest more time in testing it out or just return it and look for something better? Would love honest opinions from real users.

I bought the Rii combo last week. Build quality feels cheap, but for the price, it’s expected. The mouse is a bit small for my hands.
