My wired mouse always worked as expected. Ditto for my wireless mice when using their own adapters. My MX Master 3s had some very noticeable lag at one point, but it got fixed by some windows and/or Bluetooth driver update.

The touchpad, though, has a bit of lag that's noticeable when making sudden changes. For "regular" use it's not much of a problem and not really noticeable if you don't pay attention. But I only rarely use Windows, so whenever I do, I see it for a few minutes at first. It's a bit like moving to a Bluetooth mouse after using a wired one.

My main gripe with the touchpad under windows, though, is that I can't get the "tap and hold" behavior of macOS/Linux. Meaning that if a double tap and drag, say to select text, it will "hold the tap" for a short time if I lift my finger. Since the touchpad is of the hinged variety, it's impractical to actually press on it and move the finger while pressed. Bonus points for pressing near the top not exactly doing anything.

I think there is a setting to tap and hold, but that'll hold the tap indefinitely (or at least very long) until you tap again.
