Our opinion
There’s not much to complain about this pack, which delivers on Trust’s promises. It’s a keyboard and mouse that works great no matter what operating system you’re using, and very quietly, all at a low price.
Do we really need to introduce trust? For those of you who are unfamiliar with this brand, it is enough to know that it is well known among users for its affordable and high-performance entry-level and mid-range devices.
With a large catalog of mice, keyboards, mats, webcams and headsets, there is something for all tastes and all needs (business, gaming, connected home, etc.).
I had the pleasure of testing the Trezo Comfort keyboard and mouse set, described by the brand as comfortable and quiet.
Design and construction
- Simple and modern design
- Silent keys
- Numeric keypad
Although the packaging is usually not the most interesting aspect, we think it is important to mention it in the case of this Trezo Comfort pack. The reason for this is that, like the products themselves, it is environmentally friendly, with cardboard packaging much more environmentally friendly.
After getting used to the unnecessary surplus of plastic, this change is a very good thing. And it’s not just the case that is part of this trend: the two peripherals it contains are made of 85% recycled materials.
The keyboard has a rather sober matte black design, which helps to avoid fingerprints, but above all, it is very thin and compact. It measures 45 cm long, 18 cm wide and 4 cm high, and weighs only 752 g. Underneath, I used his little feet to prop him up for more comfort.

With an AZERTY or QWERTY format, the choice is yours. It has classic programmable keys, a numeric keypad, media controls and shortcuts. All are protected against liquids by membranes.
It’s simple and ergonomic, with six buttons on the top left for volume, mute, on/off and advanced for media playback. Then, at the top right, three small luminous circles indicate when it is used and when the shift and/or the numeric keypad are activated.
For Windows users, it has a shortcut key to open the Start menu.
As for the mouse, not much to say except that it matches the keyboard, with black tones for the lower part, the scroll wheel and the DPI button. For the rest, the brand has chosen a kind of anthracite gray.
Underneath you will find the power button, the battery compartment and where the micro USB receiver is stored.
For small hands, it’s an easy fit. However, I am afraid that it is not suitable for large hands. You will notice that it is ambidextrous and its design favors a neutral position which reduces tension.

Connection and performance
- Compatible with macOS, Windows and Chrome OS
- 10m dongle range
- Unable to connect to multiple devices simultaneously
To get started with this Trust set, you need to insert the supplied batteries, two for the keyboard and one for the mouse. This means I didn’t have to search all over the house for batteries or run to buy new ones.
Both accessories work simultaneously on the same micro USB receiver inside the mouse. Once plugged in and turned on, connection is fast, with a line-of-sight range of 10 meters and latency of just 8ms.
Unfortunately however, the receiver cannot be used individually with different computers, and if you lose or misplace it, the peripherals will become useless… Unlike the Lyra model of the same brand, it cannot connect to several devices simultaneously.
It’s also worth pointing out that I had to connect an adapter to my MacBook Pro, which only has one USB-C port. This is an important detail to keep in mind, as it’s an added expense if you don’t have enough ports.
Everything works very well on macOS (macOS 10.15, 11 or 12), Windows (10 or 11) or Chrome OS, desktop or laptop, but note that the keyboard is not compatible with game consoles.
After prolonged use of this Trust Trezo keyboard, I found it comfortable, reliable and above all very quiet. I also liked its shortcut commands, which not only saved me time, but also made everyday use easier.
I particularly appreciated the multimedia keys, which allow you to play music or a film, to switch from one title to another or to pause a program.

Its simplicity makes it ideal for productivity and office tasks, in other words, it does the job very well, but nothing more.
So if you’re looking for a keyboard with advanced features, like anti-ghosting or easy-switch technologies, then yes, you’ll have to look at keyboards like the Cherry KW X ULP, or the Logitech Ergo K860, but they are inevitably more expensive. .
As for the mouse, its cursor is adjustable at 1000, 1400 and 1800 dpi, so you can choose a suitable movement speed. It’s comfortable to hold, glides smoothly, and is as unobtrusive as the keyboard.
If I also appreciated the fact that it is light, for others it can be synonymous with delicacy or fragility.
They’re a pleasure to use, so whether you’re at home, in a public place, or in the office, you shouldn’t have to worry about noise or connectivity issues. I prefer it to a mechanical model, which would have been much louder.
Battery life
- Batteries included
- One year battery life for mouse and two years for keyboard
The keyboard and mouse are battery powered. Three Duracell batteries are included in the box. Once inserted into peripherals, batteries last 2 years on the keyboard and 1 year on the mouse.
As you will have understood, it is not a rechargeable USB-C device like most of our competitors. In my opinion, that’s not necessarily a bad thing, as it promises peace of mind for months without having to think about plugging them in to get them working.
To make them last longer, maybe consider turning them off when you’re done using them.
Price and availability
Hold on to your hats, this Trezo Comfort set, with batteries included, is offered by Trust on Amazon for £34.99 / $39.99 and is often discounted.
An unbeatable price in its range, especially given the quality of its products. It even deserves its place in our comparison of the best ergonomic keyboards alongside more expensive models.

Verdict
The Trezo keyboard is attractive, well-built, and has an excellent quiet key feel. It has a battery life of up to a year, thanks to two integrated batteries, and is compatible with macOS, Windows and Chrome OS. It’s great for productivity, but that’s all it’s good for.
The mouse is both ergonomic and discreet, but may not be suitable for large hands.
All in all, it’s a good entry-level accessory that offers excellent value for money.
