Question 1

Do you have to use the included mouse?

Accepted Answer

No, you don't have to.

But, let me caveat that statement with two things. First, the mouse has a very slight magnetic plate that helps it stay in place when you're shifting around. It's hardly noticeable, but does the trick. Kudos to Razer on that one. Second, the pad is small and so is the mouse (but not uncomfortably so). The pad may not be large enough to handle a larger mouse (or at least significantly larger).

Those two points said, you can use any mouse you want: wireless, bluetooth, or even wired if you don't mind the wires.

Hope this helps :)

Question 2

Product photos look like this has backlighting but no mention of it in the specs. Does the keyboard have a backlight?

Accepted Answer

No, this product does not have back-lighting. The new version of it however does have RGB back-lighting, a larger mouse and keyboard, and wrist rests.
