Ive been using both keyboards for the last week and am impressed.
Heres how they break down their differences and whether they are worth buying.

Dell Silent Mouse and KB Combo (KM555) (top view).
Despite their compact design, they still have a full number pad and full-sized arrow keys.
The title of this keyboard emphasizes silence, and Dell delivers here.
It is silent, making it the perfect keyboard for office or college students sharing a dorm room.

Theres no flex on the deck, either, due to this keyboard’s shorter wingspan.
Dell Peripheral Manager lets you configure the keyboard and mouse in quite a few ways.
Its an impressively thorough configuration tool, which should make even the pickiest typists happy.

Dell Silent Mouse and KB Combo (KM555) (top view).
It’s ideal for students and office workers who want a compact design without spending too much money.
Like the keyboard, Dell is quite flexible regarding configurations.
Its the same as the previous keyboard but with a few key differences.

Silent keys with good travel.
With this keyboard, the user can program only 15 keys, but thats still more than average.
Should you buy?

Like on all new laptops there is a dedicated key for Microsoft Copilot.

Dell Wired Collaboration Keyboard (KB525C) is wider and … well, wired.

USB-A or C? Ladies choice.
