Hi there Ahmad, my name is Gerardo, and I'm an Xbox player, just like you. I'll be happy to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.

I'm sorry to inform you that Xbox consoles are only compatible with wired mice; wireless mice are not compatible with Xbox consoles. The same applies to keyboards.

You can confirm this through the following link:

I appreciate your understanding and if you have further questions please let me know.

I recently got a razer mamba wireless mouse for the xbox one s. it says its compatible but wont work via wireless receiver. I'm playing games that are mouse and keyboard compatible too.

Have you correctly connected the USB dongle of oyur mouse in one USB port of the console? Because there is no other way to work, you can't associate the mouse directly to the console.

Hello Dylan,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

I understand you want to know if you can connect a wireless mouse to your Xbox Series S console. Yes, you can connect a wireless mouse to an Xbox Series S. However, not all wireless mice are compatible with the Xbox Series S.
To connect a wireless mouse, you will need to plug in a compatible mouse that supports Bluetooth or a USB dongle. Once the receiver is plugged in, turn on your wireless mouse and it should automatically connect to the receiver. Keep in mind that not all games on the Xbox Series S support mouse and keyboard input, so it's best to check the game's compatibility before attempting to use a mouse.

Here are the steps to follow:



- Turn on your console and go to Settings > Devices & connections > Accessories.

- Press the pair button on your mouse or insert the USB dongle into one of the USB ports on your console.

- Select Add new on the screen and follow the on-screen instructions to pair your mouse.

- You can adjust the mouse settings such as sensitivity and cursor speed in Settings > Devices & connections > Mouse.



I hope this helps! If you have any issues or questions, please let us know. We hope you enjoy using your wireless mouse with your Xbox series s.



Sincerely,

I have an XBOX ONE and i was just wondering if there was a way to use a wireless mouse with the console . there are times it would be easier to use than the controller. thank you for listening to my question.

In the November Update, keyboard and mouse support is enabled for the games Minecraft, Warframe and Fortnite only.

As for wireless mice: You can't "directly" connect a standard wireless mouse to the console. Most wireless mice come with a small USB dongle, that provides the wireless connection. You can simply plug that USB dongle into the console's USB port(s) (if necessary
use a USB hub), and the wireless mouse can be used in games that support the mouse.

In all other games, the mouse will not work.
