Performance Issues

Experiencing lag or delays with your Bluetooth tablet? This guide covers common performance issues and solutions.

How to Minimize Cursor Delays

Try these proven solutions to reduce latency:

Reduce Bluetooth device congestion:

Running too many Bluetooth devices simultaneously can degrade performance. For optimal results:

• Disconnect Bluetooth headsets, mice, and keyboards from your mobile device or PC if possible
• Test again to see if performance improves

Desktop Onboard Bluetooth Chipset

Desktop motherboards sometimes use less powerful onboard chipsets, which can struggle to keep up with the data flow required for low-latency inputs. This is especially true for older chipsets that only support Bluetooth version 4.x.

To ensure the best possible, lag-free experience, we highly recommend one of the following:

• Use an External Bluetooth Dongle: This is the most reliable solution. A dedicated dongle (such as those made by TP-Link or CSR) often includes its own dedicated antenna and consistently delivers high performance.
  • Pro Tip: Even a BT 4.x dongle will often perform better than an onboard BT 4.x chipset.
• Use Bluetooth 5.x or Higher: If you are buying a new dongle, look for one that supports Bluetooth 5.x or newer to guarantee full, optimized performance.
