It’s my understanding that bluetooth, while convenient, is inferior to the unifying dongles. More latency, smaller range, more power consumption, etc. It’d be nice if they gave users a choice (like they do on the new MX Master mouse) but in actuality, the unifying receiver is superior in function to Bluetooth.

I think I met you at the GDC Women's SIG a couple of years ago and remember hearing about your studies. I am really sorry your work is getting pulled into this mess. It's so baffling to me- I'm a female AAA game dev and have been thankfully insulated from this junk, the guys I know and work with that have in some…
