Is that a proprietary wireless device or a BlueTooth one?

I have never had latency problems with BlueTooth but heard some gamers
claim BT is slower than a wireless "dongle" one -- which can be true as a
proprietary communication protocol may handle only one or two very specific
input devices vs BlueTooth that can do file transfers and audio/video
stuff. Therefore a protocol used in a dongle can be less complex. Some
gamers even claims that a USB is the best in terms of latency -- If we
think it over many BlueTooth host controller actually use USB internally
(and a dongle goes onto an external USB port anyways), so obviously on a
wireless mouse it is not only the USB but also the wireless communication
protocol which may add some extra latency.
