1. An Information Handling System (IHS), comprising:
a processor; and
a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution, cause the IHS to:
identify a gaming application executed by the IHS;
in response to the identification, select a first one of a BLUETOOTH (BT) radio or a proprietary radio frequency (RF) radio to communicate with a peripheral device;
communicate with the peripheral device via the selected radio;
during the communication, determine that at least one of: a battery level of the IHS, or a battery level of the peripheral device is greater or smaller than a threshold value; and
in response to the determination, communicate control messages of the gaming application using the first one of the BT or proprietary RF radios and communicate audio or video payloads of the gaming application using a second one of the BT or proprietary RF radios.
