I am looking for a wireless keyboard/mouse (combo or standalone, either is fine).

Budget: ~4K inclusive of everything.
If it provides an international warranty then that would be a great plus.

Use case: mostly work and a bit of gaming. (Needs to be travel friendly)

I was previously using Logitech Mk240 combo.
It was fine, however for prolonged hours the mouse was especially uncomfortable and the range was awful.
 
Solution
Wired is better, no battery life to worry about and the price comes down significantly. A Logitech mouse and an Aula s99 will do fine.
I have the Dell KM117 but the keyboard isn't compact in any way. The batteries on the keyboard is still going since 2021 maybe because I don't type much but the mouse battery has been changed roughly every six months and the scroll wheel dies and comes back to life, may be it was software issue idk.

I would suggest a compact wired keyboard and the Orochi v2 mouse.

Just the Orochi mouse in itself costs ₹3,699. It doesn't fit the budget, if I want to include a keyboard as well nor am I sure if I'd want something so extreme.

About the battery, changing every 6 months is fine by me. My Logitech MK240 required changing every 3 months, with Duracell Ultra AAA.

The keyboard on the KM117 uses AAA, 2 or more, have to check later. For the mouse, a single AA and I have been using the duracell ultra too. The issue with combos is the mouse is too small and keyboard is full size in most of them.

I would advise against wireless especially since you mentioned gaming. I went back to wired due to occasional issues with unreliable inputs.

If you really must have wireless I recommend you prefer wireless 2.4ghz RF dongle instead of Bluetooth for situations you need to type before the operating system is ready like bios setup or similar...
