Is keyboard & mouse latency noticeable on cloud gaming?

Hey guys, I’m curious about the latency when using a keyboard and mouse on cloud gaming platforms.

I’ve always used a controller since I mainly play cloud games on my phone, and I don’t really notice any input latency with it. I’m planning to buy a laptop soon, though, and I’m wondering if keyboard and mouse feels noticeably different when streaming games from the cloud.

For those who regularly use KB&M on cloud gaming, is the input delay noticeable or does it feel pretty much the same as playing locally? Is KB&M better than a controller for cloud gaming, or does the extra latency make it less enjoyable?

I’ve never tried KB&M with cloud gaming before, so I’d appreciate hearing your experiences.
