Hi there, This devices connects via USB dongle. Victoria Microsoft Customer Care
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Ignore people saying it has bluetooth, all of Microsofts bluetooth devices are labeled bluetooth in the title, or are called "surface" (as in, bluetooth so it doesnt take up the only port on your surface device)
I would recommend:
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, this is not Bluetooth. It requires the included small USB transmitter nub to be plugged into your computer in order to connect wirelessly.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Look at the only answer from MS support. NO it is not BT. It is RF, but NOT BT. It will not connect to built in BT. You will need to use the proprietary USB dongle. If you have a newer MAC with USB C only, you will also need an adapter.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, it will need a USB port.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.its Bluetooth only via the usb dongle. if you donts have the usb, you can't connect directly through Bluetooth scan. you have to insert the usb into any device you wish to use.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes the Arc mouse is bluetooth. Works with surface pro without taking up the only USB port.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This is a Bluetooth product. You put a USB piece into the computer. Connects instantly.
