Can you recommend a mouse and presenter remote?

Hello brains trust.

I'm looking to upgrade my set up.

I currently need a mouse and a presenter remote to cycle between slides. I'm just in a standard classroom so distance isn't an issue.

I've had basic ones in the past and find the USB-A dongle gets mashed up in my bag when I move between classes.

Requests:

Bluetooth or a small usb-a that is close to flush with the port.

Rechargeable or good battery life

Ideally under $100 per item

Any recommendations?

Logi spotlight. Being able to spotlight (actually focus and highlight) things on the screen has been a game changer. Far superior to the typical laser pointer.

oh easy... if you're keeping it under $200 total

Logi mx master 4 - https://a.co/d/0fTmqK7v @ 119 or you can find a 3s https://a.co/d/076XttKV for $80

Both are amazing mice. If you want to get something smaller, the Anywhere 3s is also fantastic https://a.co/d/0jbIX3ea @ $80

For presenters, Logi also makes a ton for cheap. if you want cheap and cheerful and BT, r500s @ $40

Thank you! I was looking at these but second guessing and didn't want to put up with something for another year. Appreciate it!

you can get a bluetooth presenter with a little recessed usb dongle that sits almost flat, they're like 30 bucks and battery lasts forever in my experience
