Wireless or hard wired would require a USB OTG cable. I've used both on my kids Hudl 2s.
Bluetooth is likely to be the most convenient. Thanks for the response |

![]() I've got a cheap generic Bluetooth mouse (about £15 I think) and it works well on both my laptop and tablet (though not both at the same time...) |

If you are going to be using your tablet for doing some actual work and use office applications such as Word and Excel - rather than just watching videos or playing games - then it can be useful to connect it to an external monitor and have a proper keyboard and mouse.
I've got a cheap generic Bluetooth mouse (about £15 I think) and it works well on both my laptop and tablet (though not both at the same time...) I have a desktop, so if I was going to do serious work I would use the desktop rather than the tablet. Which is why your scenario didnt occur to me. |

I would like to know this too.
I wasn't aware normal bluetooth mouses (mice) could work. Some of the larger tablets, like the Xperia Z4 tablet, come with a cool keyboard accessory so it would be good for productivity when matched with the keyboard. |
