Logitech's best full-size keyboard with a matching mouse and a palm rest. Quiet, precise keys that light up as your hands come near, and it switches between three computers with one key.
Best for: Desk workers who type a lot and use more than one device.

The productivity mouse reviewers keep naming the best: a scroll wheel that spins freely through long documents, a thumb wheel for sideways scrolling, and new haptic feedback.
Best for: Right-handed people with medium to large hands. Smaller hands may prefer the Logitech Lift.

Up to about 2,000 MB/s in a rubber-armoured body the size of a credit card, with a 5-year warranty. Backups and big video files move in seconds instead of minutes.
Best for: Anyone moving large files. Full speed needs a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 port; on other ports it is still fast.

A colour laser that prints, copies, scans and faxes at 25 pages a minute, on both sides automatically, over Wi-Fi from your phone or laptop. Laser toner does not dry out like inkjet cartridges, so it is ready after weeks unused.
Best for: Home offices and families who print a little every week. Outside Europe and the Gulf it may be sold as an imageCLASS model.

Not every pick is sold in every country. These are the things that make the difference, so you can spot the finest in your own store.
Often, yes. Business laptops are built to last longer, have better keyboards and come with longer support. They cost more up front.
For backups and big files, a portable SSD is many times faster and lasts longer. A USB stick is fine for small files and handing things over.
