As for the keyboard, I can’t advise - I myself am on a laptop, typing on it.
But as for the mouse, I did a grandiose research about a year ago (I went around all (Internet) stores, touched all possible mice). For the sake of interest, I looked in all price and thematic categories in order to make an informed choice based on the best price / quality ratio.
The only caveat: unfortunately, touch mice were not included in my research, because. at that time they had just begun to be sold in my country, and stood like an inexpensive netbook.
Requirements:
- High accuracy
- Wireless
- Ergonomic body, but without special rocket-science forms and other garbage that you need to get used to. So that you just take it in your hand - and it's immediately convenient
- Pleasant material
- A couple of conveniently located additional buttons for the thumb, but no more.
- Customizable buttons for different applications
Wishes:
- Beautiful design
- Rechargeable (I don't like changing batteries)
- A wheel that not only spins, but also presses left / right (there is nothing more convenient for scrolling through tabs in the browser, and Copy / Paste in the text editor)
- Charging indicator in the mouse itself
- Ability to easily change the DPI setting for increased sensitivity (handy in Photoshop and sniper shooters) Logitech Performance Mouse MX
won .
In addition to the fact that it meets all the requirements and (!) wishes, it also has nice bonuses:
- Works great on any surface (glossy / matte / denim / sofa / thick glass / ...)
- Has a small mechanical button under the wheel , by clicking on which the wheel stops “clicking”, and spins like a bearing, on energy (which is very convenient for Leprosy and other sites 100,500 comments long)
- The battery is a rechargeable AA battery, i.e. it (it) can be easily and cheaply replaced if such a need arises
- After the battery critical signal is given, the mouse can be used for at least a day
- The mouse can be used even when the battery is dead. A microUSB cable is simply plugged in from the front, and the mouse temporarily becomes wired
- The attentive reader has already learned this point from the previous one: recharging via MicroUSB.
A full charge is enough for a week. I don't know if this is good or bad, but you have the option to put any rechargeable AA battery in there. Maybe some super-mega-durasel-ultra will work forever, I have not tried it.
Cons:
- Actions for all buttons (except right and left) are configured in SetPoint, but application-specific actions can only be set to Back / Forward and Scroll Left / Right
- The first couple of weeks, instead of pressing the middle button (wheel), you can involuntarily perform a scroll left/right action with the same wheel. After a while, you will get the hang of it, and you will press everything “correctly”, but, nevertheless, this is not a very pleasant moment.
- There is no dock for recharging, where the mouse would be proudly placed at night.
I have had it for a year and a half, but (despite the cons) every time I use it, I get up. I am so pleased with her that I was not even too lazy to write it all.

There is no keyboard with buttons without gaps. Is that rubber, but I doubt that these will suit you. Even if the gaps are small, dust and dirt will still get there, but getting it out will be much more difficult for you.

I would advise you to look for a keyboard with a rubber pad on top of the keys) I have this on my laptop) it’s convenient and dirt doesn’t climb.

I have a Defender Oscar 600 Black USB, the number of multimedia buttons is expanded by the fn button.
she is not afraid of dirt between the buttons, she survived a couple of pourings of tea.
Key travel is small but noticeable. there is room for the wrists.

oklick 555 s - keyboard, slim, low speed, silicone pad on top, no bells and whistles (there are additional keys for sound) - but the keys expand due to F), compact.

For many keyboards (at least popular laptops) there are silicone pads. Search ebay for "keyboard silicone skin". I haven't tried it myself so I don't know how easy it is. I periodically clean the clave of my laptop with alcohol from the outside; I blow out the dirt from the inside with a vacuum cleaner with a furniture nozzle.
