They come with a 2.4 GHz RF USB dongle and Bluetooth pairing capability. Three different Bluetooth profiles can be quickly cycled through with the click of a button to switch between connected devices. A slider allows for quick changes between BT, OFF and 2.4 GHz RF mode. The Razer Synapse software allows for full control over the mapping and the events triggered by clicking the different mouse keys. The Pro Click Mini takes two AA batteries and the non-mini version has a built in rechargable battery.

==Consumer impact summary==

===User account required to configure devices===

One compelling selling point of Razer gear and their computer mice is customization of the devices. This can be done through the Synapse software<ref>{{Cite web |title=Synapse 4 |url=https://www.razer.com/synapse-4 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250421162457/https://www.razer.com/synapse-4 |archive-date=2025-04-21 |access-date=2025-04-19 |website=Razer.com}}</ref>. As of April 2025, there is no convenient way of using the Synapse software on Windows without having to create a user account and being connected to the internet<ref>{{Cite web |title=Synapse 3.0 Offline mode |url=https://insider.razer.com/razer-synapse-3-29/synapse-3-0-offline-mode-38431 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250421162254/https://insider.razer.com/razer-synapse-3-29/synapse-3-0-offline-mode-38431 |archive-date=2025-04-21 |access-date=2025-04-19 |website=Insider.Razer.com}}</ref>. There may have been ways to circumvent this in the past<ref>{{Cite web |date=2018 |title=Synapse without a login |url=https://www.reddit.com/r/razer/comments/978py2/synapse_without_a_log_in/ |access-date=2025-04-19 |website=Reddit.com}}</ref>. Version 3.5.1215.121019 (released in 2020) seems to work with limited functionality with a "Guest" account (no login), which still allows for a full configuration of the devices<ref>Own user experience.</ref>. For Linux, there is an open source alternative for the software<ref>{{Cite web |title=OpenRazer Features |url=https://openrazer.github.io/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250403044347/https://openrazer.github.io/ |archive-date=2025-04-03 |access-date=2025-04-19 |website=OpenRazer.Github.io}}</ref>. A Windows port of this Linux software exists, but as of April 2025 the files have not been updated for at least four years<ref>{{Cite web |title=OpenRazer win32 |url=https://github.com/CalcProgrammer1/openrazer-win32 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250421163507/https://github.com/CalcProgrammer1/openrazer-win32 |archive-date=2025-04-21 |access-date=2025-04-19 |website=Github.com/CalcProgrammer1}}</ref> (the port might still work regardless).

===Bluetooth functionality breaks due to supposed firmware error===

It has been reported on many occasions, that the Bluetooth functionality of the Pro Click and Pro Click Mini devices can easily break during normal use.
