Fine, then stand up and game, the flexibility of a wireless keyboard can allow you to do that too

Wireless mice technology has caught up for sure & it's worth it

The G Pro X superlight is a great wireless mouse - click latency is 3ms compared to running it wired (2ms), no one is going to notice that 1 millsecond difference in real world use lol
& the battery lasts a long time and charges fast
It's an expensive mouse so some haven't tried but I wish others would because it's so good, it has been a favorite by the esports scene for years
the freedom of movement compared to wired is just unbeatable

I don't think we've hit that same sweet spot with keyboards though, I'll stick to wired keyboards until that happens

In those situations you use a controller. Using a keyboard in a couch isn't really comfortable.

For me, it's all about wireless headphones. There's no going back once you swap.
I had a pair in like 2013, and it would legitimately take about 10 minutes to connect them to my PC. I'd have to restart it several times and try to get the fucking drivers or bluetooth to work... and then it sounded like absolute shit anyway.

Now, they just work instantly, the charge lasts for a week, and they sound great. It's so freeing not having to worry about being physically tied to your PC.

Yes, it's not the 2010s any more, they've been good for a few years now. Sound completely comparable to wired, and most importantly they finally just work.
I'm using my XM4's still, they're about 3 years old. Will probably move on to the XM6 when that gets released later this year, since my experience with these was so good.

Are there keyboards that I can connect with a USB cable to my pc for standard use and charging, but if I want to I could pick it up, plug out the cable at the back of the keyboard and then seamlessly switch to wireless use on it? That’s what I would want, that sort of convenience
>>
>>683680601
yes they do. they're called wireless but you leave it charging, you retarded monkey nigger.
and if you think there's some technology that allows you to actually use the usb cable as a connection then tough luck because fuck you I guess

Classic wirelesscuck, always lying about their shitty hardware. No anon, it does in no way sound anywhere near as good as wired, but since you "need" wireless headphones you've probably been blasting your ears with 24/7 music for years so you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between a Fatal1ty gaymen headset from 2012 and a proper pair of headphones.

You don't move the keyboard at all and the mouse doesn't come off the desk or move very far. What benefit is there to them being wireless?

What do you mean worry, it doesn't just randomly happen, all modern mice have a flashing LED or something when they're getting low (which is like once every 6 months if using batteries)
>some mice start drifting/skipping when batteries get low
Not a thing I have ever heard of or encountered.
>added latency
What, 1ms? That's 0.001 seconds, even the sweatiest comp gamers won't notice a difference now.

You wiredfags are deranged, always jumping at ghosts and stories you heard about the tech 15 years ago.

super lightweight mice are a marketing gimmick. As long as your mouse is under 100g it's fine. Finding a mouse shape that that fits your hand and grip is more important
Logitech is overpriced garbage, especially the superlight, get a zowie or vaxee if you have that kind of money to burn
>>
>>683674765
so a wireless mouse makes sense because the battery lasts well over a week, they're insanely light, no cable drag, as good latency as wired
but what in the fuck is the point of a wireless gaming keyboard? why are there so many now?
>>
>>683688798
>cable drag
lol retard.
>>
>>683688798
Why not, basically the same idea, it has no downsides, battery lasts forever if you don't use meme LEDs, latency is basically the same as wired, and as far as I can tell it adds jack shit to the price, my new keyboard is wireless and cost less than my old one while being 200x better in every other aspect too.
Buying a keyboard right now feels great with how many good customs are in stock.

Although I guess the keyboard is wireless too.
G502X 80% cheaper than G502X+

And it's slower, marginally, but it is slower for 5x more money.

I agree with keyboard.
With mouse, I moved to wireless because the cable kept snagging on my monitor stand.
Charge lasts about 48 hours, but I just place it on the dock before I go to bed every night. No problemo.

>>683690716
What "upsides" does wired have in current year?

>muh lag
Literally no longer an issue, any "lag" is imperceivable
>muh batteries
Seconds of "effort" twice a year. Use rechargables.

I think the convenience and lack of wires outweighs those non-issues.
