I usually just go in to save on heating my home. Wouldn't buy anything in there at their prices!

If anyone manages to get this, please comment below :smile:

Wow, amazing price. I've been looking at the K400 Plus to go with my Steam Link, but the plus is annoyingly it's highest price in months right now on Amazon. Going to pop into currys later and see if I can grab one of these for a fiver.

Stupid question but Can this be used for ps4

Hot! Hot! Hot!

I wanted to know why do you go to Currys in the first place what did you wanted to buy when you find these kind of deals please tell me did you get what you went in for then bought this as well thanks good price not great keyboard

So, you see it in Curry's 'reduced to clear' and then go and buy it from John Lewis - or did you get one from each store? Wasn't aware that JL would price-match on RTC items!

​I know but the difference between the versions isn't much, definitely worth paying 25 less for an older model!

True

How come John Lewis price matched, I mean How you showed the proof as that is available for £4.97? Surely they need to check if stock is available in currys to match...?

Is this national? Cause clearance can mean just that one store.

So What's all you showed them to price match...?

The thing is it is not availlable online, if you took the Currys ticket and asked them to price match they just matched...?

which store was this please?

Hot, I have 3 of these for my media centres.

Can I reserve it online (£29.99) but pay price £4.97 instore?

Note to OP, the K400 and K400 Plus are different devices.

using this one with smart tv, no problem at all

Thanks

Exactly ...

K400 (Old Version, with less functionality with regards to programmable keys and touchpad)


K400 Plus (Newer better keyboard)

That is correct, I showed the SA the SEL and asked if JL could price match it. He did all the checks he needs to on his computer and then I bought it for £4.97. Why are you not happy with this deal? :-/

I say the newer one is better, but I have both and I prefer the keys on the older version but the touchpad on the newer..

I actually had two of each in black and white and i can tell you this now, you can spill stuff in these and easily open the with a Philips screw driver and literally wash everything bar the tiny circuit board behind the touchpad. Ive spilt my drinks in them so many times that I've lost count lol :laughing:

stupidly cheap, heat given

Can you please give us the SA the SEL as well? I'll try to call JL to see if they can price match. Tia heat added.

Thanks for sharing this deal!

I hope this deal is national!

This is a great keyboard - pretty much the best available if you need one with a trackpad (or even if you don't). I've used mine with my desktop when I'm not sat at my desk, with a Steam Link, with a Windows tablet and with a Raspberry Pi, all without any problems or even having to install any drivers. I can highly recommend it and just wish I'd gotten it for £5! Might buy another one just to have a spare receiver...

£29.99

I've got both the k400 and k400+. Not much difference between them, both are very good for home theater or on a laptop.

None in Hull. Only k400 plus at 29.99 at both currys and pc world. Went with Amazon for 50p more on the k400 plus on the off chance if the price is reduced in the next week they'll refund the difference. 50p gamble!

​

What link ?? There is no hyperlink. This is an in-store deal.

nice find been after one of these for my new cheap gaming build

Yes there is ....click on 'Get Deal' ...it takes you to Currys but the K400 Plus one.

I've got one of these and I hated the thing.
Nasty as a keyboard and nasty as a trackpad.

But it's a good price for an emergency backup.

do these work for smart TV's :smile:

Cools thanks :innocent: using the remote as mouse and keypad on a 60inch smart tv is not fun hehe

Fantastic keyboard for light use. Hot if can be found in more stores.

this is out of stock nationwide

Think the OP just got pretty lucky finding this! Well worth sharing though, great deal if you can find it.

Are you people all insane? This was a grubby ex-display model - RTC - highly unlikely anybody else will find the same deal - it's like me posting a deal for a 40p chicken (or even goose) I found in Tesco! LOL

HOTTTT!!!! Had this keyboard for over 2 years now... Its the best out there for media centre machines!

You are giving people false hope - I know you didn't buy the grubby one - this deal is not attainable for others in JL - they are not selling it for £4.97 nationwide - the only deal I can see here is if the grubby ONE is still available for ONE person in Tunbridge Wells! But then they are essentially buying a used item!

What are you talking about? There is no false hope in this deal; obviously these keyboards aren't going to be stacked on the shelves in their hundreds, but if 10-20 people can buy one from their local store then it's a win. That SEL will be used throughout Dixons. And failing that, John Lewis can price match it, just like they did for me.

FYI that grubby keyboard was at Crawley Currys PC World; if anyone wants it?

It's a great keyboard, we have it for our media tv PC, the amount of times its fell off the sofa and still lives, also never changed the batt unlike the Microsoft curve which runs out every week

JL won't match on Clearance items as most retailers won't. if you check their T&C. They'll have a look at offers online , if it's not in stock or clearly marked as end of line they won't price match

Bragging deal? - LOL

I paid £40 for this last year and it's not that great to be honest. It's quite a bendy keyboard

Got one a few weeks back. Good to use as a media centre stuff. Good quality for the price. Only thing I notice is when i want to use it with my desktop.... BAD IDEA as the unifying receiver won't take another Logitech mouse for me to play my games.

Just stating the facts - no need to resort to rudeness - just trying to be realistic that nobody else is likely to get same deal as it's a reduced to clear ex-demo item - and save them a journey

Been through many many remote keyboards in my time but this one is by far the best i've used. I think i've had it for well over 2 years and i havent even changed the batteries yet! :confused:

He's right, you gave false hope, I assumed this was a sale, but it is just a one off ex-demo item in one store.

Whatever. I cannot be bothered to deal with you, and your inferior opinion. This keyboard can be found in Dixons, the SEL is national, just got to find the stores with stock. There's no false hope; this is not a Tesco yellow sticker clearance item.

I've got one of these and use it on my Kodibuntu PC. Its brilliant as a media centre keyboard for occasional use. Also works plugging it in to my samsung TV for the smart features.

Wouldn't recomend it in place of a normal keyboard for everyday use though. But for a media centre at £4.97 its a steal.

Managed to pick one up in john lewis, I just showed the member of staff the picture from post 1 on my phone.

cheers OP

Back up to £30 now

29.99 online. COLD

easy to spot the in-store currys/pc world deals they end in .97p

so if you see .97 don't bother even looking on-line

Not doubting this deal at all, but no stock at the 2 pc world stores I checked, and John lewis didn't have any either.
Good luck to anyone else trying to find one!

Can I go to John Lewis in bluewater and say I saw this deal in Tunbridge Wells and get them to price match it? Was there anything else you said to them?

Bargain, but showing at £29.99 on Currys' site. I've had one of those for a while. It's handy. Works with PS3 and Mac too.

2 nearest me knew nothing of this.

Actually no.When I first clicked on the link it was £4.97, with stock in my two local stores, as I tried to reserve one it suddenly jumped to £29.99

I had a black k400 and a white k400+ for £7.50 each thanks to last year's Logitech deal.

I kept the k400 and sold the k400+. The white k400+ looked cheaper and I preferred the larger trackpad buttons and the full sized arrow keys on the k400.

These are great, but it's been replaced twice - the K400R and then the K400 Plus.

Tbh, nothing much has changed, if anything they got worse (R decided to turn F keys into media keys by default, annoying, and the plus is the same again with not-as-nice plastic but a larger shift key).

However, seeing as PC World have stocked the replacements since, and they are not often discounted terribly below RRP (meaning even someone like me might just buy at PC world in a pinch), the number of these original K400 left in store must be tiny by now, so good luck to anyone trying to find one!

Right... So you're saying that the k400 plus was priced at £4.97 ?

As a rule I hate these type of keyboards, but for <£5 I might get one (if there's any in my local) just to make controlling my pc easier when watching movies. Use it purely as a remote control!

Good keyboard range, I use a slightly different version of this model with SteamLink.

Just got the last one in my local JL after showing her this post. The woman was hesitant as it was priced at £29 and did some checks but eventually gave it to me for the £4.97 price.

I know people that use these kinds of keyboards for everyday use, don't ask me how they manage it, but they do! I was using other means to control my PC from across the room, most people would have just used a standard wireless mouse and keyboard from their sofa but as my primary keyboard is a Corsair K95 RGB.... My point being is this is cheap enough to make it a plausible purchase!
