what cuz i gotta put a battery in the wireless lol, it is visually more pleasing. i hate cords. i always tie them up or straighten them out along edges and seams out of sight or eliminate them completely. my room is cable free, visually.

batteries are less energy efficient and time efficient (changing them) and you face more potential problems with bluetooth connectivity than a straight usb connection

and wireless mouses seem to burn through batters like nobody's business

Post by: don't let's on September 01, 2016, 06:27:12 PM
Most of them I've had seem to last a month or so, but I've got this one logitech mouse that last at least 6 months or more of pretty much heavy daily use on a single battery.
Title: Re: i just got a new monitor at work
Post by: Socks on September 01, 2016, 06:44:11 PM
yeah mine last for months and i use em everyday for like 8+ hours. also no bluetooth, i have a little usb plug for both mouse and computer and never had any issues. did someone mention energy efficient and time consuming lol, yeah, the 10 seconds it takes me once every 5 months to change the battery is really such a drag.

also "input lag" but that's only concerning if you are into gaming, which is a net productivity killer

I've never had problems with latency that I've noticed. Though when the battery gets about dead it starts stuttering and lagging.
