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

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!

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!

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.

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

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

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!

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.

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

2 nearest me knew nothing of this.

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.

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?

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!

Back up to £30 now

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

29.99 online. COLD

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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:

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.

Bragging deal? - LOL

Stupid question but Can this be used for ps4

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

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

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

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?

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!

this is out of stock nationwide

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!

do these work for smart TV's :smile:

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

£29.99

​

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!

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

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...

I hope this deal is national!

Thanks for sharing this deal!

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.

stupidly cheap, heat given

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:

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

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? :-/

Exactly ...

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


K400 Plus (Newer better keyboard)

Thanks

using this one with smart tv, no problem at all

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

which store was this please?

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

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...?

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

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...?

True

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

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!

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.

Hot! Hot! Hot!

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