Anyone else having issues. Mine is specific and very odd. Bluetooth magic keyboard. Works fine when plugged in but as soon as via Bluetooth it’s laggy. Hit a key edit a split second for a response. It’s tres annoying. Reported to Apple and have opened a case. Something so basic as Bluetooth seems super weird.
 
That time I had issues with Bluetooth, a router placement to the other side of the room fixed them all. It was previously sitting close to the Mac.

see if your kernel_task process is taking up ~20-30% CPU.. when I added a Radeon Pro w5700 to my machine that process went haywire and I would notice lagginess with my keyboard and mouse.

And this would suddenly happen, after the 10.15.5 update. After no issues in 5 months of use? Ironically my router is in another room entirely.

I've bee using the W5700X in the machine for 4 weeks without issue. Not sure why now after the 10.15.5 update this would trigger an issue. It doesn't make sense. and it's definitely the bluetooth. As I said. connected via cable no fault. connected via bluetooth, thee fault is there.
