Go into device manager and disable their power saving settings. I had disconnection issues once or twice a week with my MS Designer Mouse and this fixed it.
- m_st 8y agoOr dear! I tried about everything possible but didn't think it could be related to such a generic setting! Found this article that shows where it is: https://www.howtogeek.com/189856/ask-htg-how-can-i-keep-my-bluetooth-mouse-connected https://www.howtogeek.com/189856/ask-htg-how-can-i-keep-my-b... I searched the web, updated Dell drivers, found some Reddit thread where they explained cryptic settings in the device manager... All of that didn't help. I gave up when I found yet another blog post where a guy even replaces the internal bluetooth kit of his XPS 15! In the hope that this fixes it once and for all: Thank you so much!

- m_st 8y agoLooks good so far. The Microsoft Surface Precision mouse still works in Bluetooth mode. Now I can definitely recommend this mouse. Tomorrow I'll test the Microsoft Surface mouse, AKA Microsoft Modern mouse.
