The Logitech MK295 Silent Wireless Combo is now available at Mascom International for KSh 5,300, pairing a full-size wireless keyboard and a contoured optical mouse that cut typing and clicking noise by over 90 percent. Both pieces connect through one tiny 2.4GHz USB receiver with a 10-metre range, running on long-life batteries about 36 months for the keyboard and 18 months for the mouse. Mascom International stocks the Logitech MK295 at our Nairobi CBD store, Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street. The Logitech MK295 ships in Graphite and Off-White colours.
The Logitech MK295 addresses one specific problem: keyboard and mouse noise in shared spaces. In open-plan offices across Westlands and Upper Hill, in call centres, in university hostels at Kenyatta University and USIU, and in homes where one person works while another sleeps, loud clicking carries. This combo removes that friction. It suits data-entry clerks, customer support agents, night-shift workers, journalists filing copy in busy newsrooms, and students typing assignments late without disturbing roommates. Anyone who types for hours near other people gets the same familiar key feel with almost none of the sound.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya who stock only louder budget combos, Mascom International carries the Logitech MK295 as a genuine Logitech product with full manufacturer backing. Users consistently report that the SilentTouch keys feel identical to a standard keyboard while producing a soft, muted sound instead of sharp clicks. The spill-resistant build and plug-and-play setup make it a practical daily driver rather than a gadget. Visit Mascom International at Kimathi Street to test the Logitech MK295 in person, or order for pay-on-arrival delivery to any of Kenya's 47 counties. The combo stays ready to type straight out of the box.
Common Questions About the Logitech MK295
Is the Logitech MK295 actually silent, or just marketing?
Yes, the quiet is real. The Logitech MK295 uses SilentTouch technology that removes over 90 percent of typing and clicking noise, measured by an independent lab against the older MK270 at one metre. You still feel a clear key press and a defined mouse click the tactile feedback stays. What disappears is the loud clack. In a quiet hostel room or a shared home office, roommates and family members barely hear you type. This is not gimmick-quiet; the sound sits closer to a soft tap than a sharp click, which is why open-plan office workers notice the change immediately.
What makes the Logitech MK295 different from the cheaper MK270?
The main difference is noise. The Logitech MK295 shares the layout and feel of Logitech's bestselling MK270 combo but adds SilentTouch dampening across every key and both mouse buttons. Where the MK270 clicks audibly, the MK295 stays muted. Both use the same 2.4GHz wireless connection and the same tiny USB receiver, so wireless performance matches between them. If you work alone in a private office, the MK270 saves a little money. If you share space an open-plan floor, a newsroom, a bedroom the Logitech MK295 is the version that keeps the peace.
Who should buy the Logitech MK295?
The Logitech MK295 suits anyone who types near other people. That includes customer support and call-centre agents in Nairobi's outsourcing firms, data-entry clerks handling KRA and banking records, night-shift staff, and journalists filing stories in shared newsrooms. Students at University of Nairobi, Strathmore, and JKUAT use it for late assignments without waking roommates. Remote workers on frequent video calls avoid broadcasting loud keystrokes to the whole meeting. Anyone whose clicking irritates a spouse, a colleague, or a sleeping child is the buyer this combo was built for.
Does the Logitech MK295 work with my laptop and Windows?
Yes. The Logitech MK295 works with any Windows laptop or desktop and with Chrome OS, using plug-and-play setup. You slot the tiny USB receiver into a USB-A port and start typing within seconds no software install, no driver hunt, no pairing codes. It fits office PCs, home laptops, and the Chromebooks used in many Kenyan schools. Note that the receiver is USB-A, so newer laptops with only USB-C ports need a simple USB-C adapter, which Mascom International also stocks alongside the Logitech MK295 at our Kimathi Street store.
How long do the batteries in the Logitech MK295 last?
The keyboard runs about 36 months on two AAA batteries, and the mouse about 18 months on a single AA battery. That means years of use between changes, not months. Both pieces have on/off switches, so you can cut power when travelling to stretch battery life further. For Kenyan users who would rather not think about replacements, the Logitech MK295 is a set-and-forget combo. Spare AAA and AA batteries are cheap and sold everywhere in Kenya, so a swap costs very little when the day finally comes around.
Is the Logitech MK295 keyboard full-size with a number pad?
Yes. The Logitech MK295 keyboard is full-size and includes a complete number pad on the right, which matters for anyone entering figures accountants, cashiers, data clerks, and banking staff reconciling numbers all day. It also carries eight shortcut keys for volume, mute, play and pause, and quick internet access. The tilt legs adjust the typing angle for wrist comfort during long sessions. This is a standard desktop layout, so there is no learning curve moving across from an older keyboard, wired or wireless.
Is the Logitech MK295 worth KSh 5,300 in Kenya?
At KSh 5,300, the Logitech MK295 sits in the mid-range for wireless combos in Kenya, and the silence is what you pay for. Cheaper generic sets cost less but click loudly and often fail within months. The MK295 is genuine Logitech, carries a manufacturer guarantee, runs for years per battery, and holds up to daily office use. For shared workspaces, night study, and video-call-heavy jobs, the quiet operation alone justifies the price. Buyers across Kenya tell us the Logitech MK295 pays for itself in fewer complaints from people sitting nearby.
How does the Logitech MK295 handle spills and daily wear?
The Logitech MK295 has a spill-resistant keyboard tested to handle small liquid spills, plus durable keys rated for heavy typing. Sturdy tilt legs with adjustable height keep it stable on a desk. The mouse uses optical tracking that works on most surfaces without a dedicated mouse pad. For Kenyan offices where tea and coffee sit next to keyboards all day, the spill resistance adds real protection against an accidental knock. It is built as a long-term daily tool, not a disposable accessory you replace every year.
How do I connect the Logitech MK295 and start using it?
Setup takes under a minute. Remove the USB receiver it ships inside the mouse under the battery cover and plug it into any USB-A port on your computer. Insert the batteries, which are already supplied in the box, flip the on/off switches on both the keyboard and mouse, and the connection forms automatically over 2.4GHz. There is no Bluetooth pairing and no app to download. The 10-metre wireless range lets you sit back from the screen, handy for presentations or a tidy desk in a small Nairobi office.
