I mean while we're sharing anecdotes, I use a wireless Logitech mouse and I plug it in and continue using it when I get a low battery warning. I can't charge it overnight because I plug it into my monitor's USB port which powers down when the monitor sleeps.
We exist! Lol
Congratulations for existing and for missing the point of my comment.
Regardless of your choice of wireless mouse and how you use it, do have a USB port free which is not locked to your monitor, and is preferably connected to a charger. What if your phone needs a charge while you are at your desk but are not using your monitor?
Lol I actually have very few open USB ports, thus why I choose to put the mouse cable in the spare one on my monitor. And I charge my phone on a wireless charger plugged into the wall?
Anyway I'm not telling you you're wrong for charging your mouse after work or whatever. I'm just saying that designers are wrong if they don't give consumers the option to use their mouse while charging its battery. That's just basic.
