Does moving your mouse while macbook air 2017 is asleep wake it?

I have a Razer Orochi mouse that can only be connected via the 2.4ghz usb plug. Whenever I move the mouse or desk, my macbook wakes up. If I were to get a wireless mouse that can connect via bluetooth, would that stop my macbook from waking up when the mouse is moved?


I am running macOS Monterey 12.4.

Moving or clicking any mouse connected to your Mac will wake it from sleep.
