Today, I will be comparing the hp 330 vs zeb companion 500 keyboard and mouse combo, both of which fall under the price range of 1500 rupees. The objective of this comparison is to determine which one is more suitable for you.
Firstly, when it comes to build quality of the keyboard, the Zeb Companion 500 seems to have a slightly better and heavier build compared to the HP 330. However, the HP 330's keyboard is lightweight, but it has decent build quality, although it is smaller in size compared to the Zebronics keyboard. As for the mouse, both have the same build quality and size.
The Zeb Companion 500 is available in two color options, while the HP 330 comes in only one color option. Please feel free to share your opinion in the comment section below on which combo looks better to you.
Both keyboards feature a low-profile, chiclet-style keys, with only a difference in the shape of the keys.
In typing test, it was observed that pressing the keys on the HP keyboard requires less effort compared to the Zebronics keyboard, which has slightly tighter key presses. Therefore, there is no doubt that the key press experience is better on the HP 330 compared to the Zeb Companion 500, making it a better option for typing.
Both the HP 330 and Zeb Companion 500 keyboards have multimedia and shortcut keys. However, the difference lies in their functionality. The HP 330 requires the use of the function (Fn) key in combination with the corresponding shortcut key to perform the desired action. On the other hand, the Zebronics keyboard allows for direct use of the multimedia and shortcut keys without having to use the Fn key.
And, unlike the HP 330, the Zeb Companion 500 comes with adjustable legs on the backside of the keyboard.
Moving on to the mouse, the Zeb Companion 500 has soft and silent clicks, while the HP 330 has normal clicks. Both mice have a scroll wheel made of plastic material, which works well for scrolling. However, only the Zeb Companion 500 has adjustable DPI, while the HP 330 does not. The DPI settings for both mice can be viewed on the screen.
Both combos come with a receiver that can be used to connect the keyboard and mouse wirelessly. The receiver can also be used to store the mouse when not in use.
Furthermore, with the HP 330 combo, you will receive a free set of batteries, while you will need to purchase the batteries separately for the Zeb Companion 500 combo.
In terms of basic gaming, both combos can be used without any issues. However, if I had to choose one between the two, I would choose the HP 330 because of its comfortable key press experience and lightweight design, which makes it easy to carry around. However, it ultimately depends on your personal preference, and if you prefer the features of the Zeb Companion 500, then you can certainly purchase that one.
