Dongles are indeed not perceivably different than wired in principle. However, you may have more latency variability, or even unstable connectivity, depending on what adjacent usb ports are doing, due to interference [0].

I have had cases where dongles were practically unusable in my setup, up to completely losing connectivity when transferring data through an adjacent port.
