I'm in need of Bluetooth for my pc.
It's an i7 build, decent components all round.
I want to use a Bluetooth keyboard, mouse, headphones, and possibly more devices at once.
I know nothing about Bluetooth dongles but I know I need it to handle multiple devices and lag is not an option
It seems these things start at around £3, in fact it's hard to find an expensive one.
Plus I can't seem to find any that are a brand I've ever heard of.
They all seem to be suited for audio streaming and have a jack input.
I'm not interested at all in this function, it's purely for connecting Bluetooth devices to the computer.
Can someone give me some recommendations?
I'm on Windows 10 and willing to pay up to £100 if necessary but I prefer not to have a silly antenna cable all over the place.
I like the neat little ones.

You should not have to spend more than £15 for a good USB Bluetooth for your PC.

I have used the TP-Link UB400 to connect keyboards, mice, headsets, speakers, etc... without any issues.
Just pug it and Windows 10 takes care of the drivers.

Also it's to be red and green, have 2 leds and smell like 🍓

Call a manufacturer to have it custom made.

Sod it ima get the cheapest one I can find and go from there. I'll let you know how it went. I suppose it's naive to expect anything cheap to be lagless. Has anyone invented a WiFi keyboard yet lol. No more adaptors, yay.

You still will need a WiFi adapter if your desktop PC does not have one.
There are several drawbacks of having a WiFi (802.11x) keyboard.
To start battery life would be dreadful.
More interference with Internet connection.
You would need 2 WiFi adapters, one for Internet and another to connect your WiFi (802.11x) keyboard.

What I mean is I didn't think they had WiFi keyboards, seems like it would be slow as hell.
