Razer - Basilisk Mobile

Generally mice that are more open. The G502 and Basilisk thumb area is a bit cramped. I don't have thick fingers, but long ones and my thumbs are a bit wider at the tips than on most people. The EC1 shape is good for working because it's super relaxed. But I aim better with the FK1 XL shape, Viper and similar works great too - less comfortable though.

I had a Razer Basilisk and it ate my batteries like crazy (Maybe it was faulty but i didn't wanna bother with it anymore). I would like to have a good mouse that charges with USB C and isn't too bad in terms of input latency and tracking. Are there any options that are worth the money? I hope its okay to ask these questions here because i have no damn idea about the mouse space lol :D

Odd, I had my razer mouse since I was gaming on my mom’s apple laptop in 2014 lol, it just now gave out beginning of this year, with the mouse click not working. Haven’t opened it up but it might still be an easy fix. Bought a razer basilisk last Black Friday anyway just in case, and it handles like a dream

I've had two G502's, both started having unwanted double click issues after just a year of use. Switched to Razer Basilisk and it's now my favorite mouse after the Logitech MX518 which is no longer being manufactured.

If working is the primary need with gaming on the side my recommendation would probably be the Razer Basilisk line. They have two wireless options. But it also depends by the type of games he plays and how many extra buttons he needs.

I've had a razor basilisk for about 5 years and it's sound but I've never had a mouse break tbh

I use a Razer Basilisk. There is open source mouse software polychromatic(https://polychromatic.app/) that i use with the razer daemon to manage the mouse and all it's functions. The daemon and software are compatible with pretty much every razer mouse.

I got one because I was on a string of bad selections that did not work for me or just failed.  I begrudgingly went back to Razer after having experienced build quality issues in the past, but I went with the Basilisk specifically for the optical switches.  So far it has been okay.  We'll see how long it holds up.

I've got a razer naga that I've used since like 2010 that's still going very strong. Wife bought me a basilisk recently but i think I'm going to return it for the new wireless naga. It feels so much better in my hand. The basilisk feels so narrow and after a while it tends to cramp my hand.

You mean the "RAT" Series. Im still rocking these today! Got my first RAT 7 at 2011. Now, since 3 years i use "RAT 8" and i never want any other mice. Fits like a glove for me since 13 years. tried mutiple others like Razer Basilisk, Corsair Darkstar (for ridiculous 170€ lol) Corsair M65 and a G502. I wasnt happy with any of them. RAT on top. <3

Best MMO Mouse, Logitech g502. It doesn't have all the side buttons, just 3 side, and two top buttons next to the left click. It's fully programable, and you can make macros as well. After that Razer Basilisk, similar design to the g502, not as many buttons. The kicker is I use a Keypad controller in my left hand. currently a Razer Tartarus Pro. There is one I am really interested in getting though: # Azeron Cyro

Razer Basilisk is by far the most comfortable mouse for me, but after trying out some lightweight mice like viper or zaopin Z1 I just could not go back to the higher weight

I havent tried steelseries but razer is far away from trash. I also like mice and try different ones every now and then like the vaxee xe, gpx2, viper v2 pro, dav3, pulsar x2v2, and much more. I have had a razer basilisk for like what 5 years now? Maybe even more and it hasnt gave me one single problem. I have the death adder v2 mini for years and havent had a single problem. I main the viper v2 pro and its the most amazing mouse for me out of all the ones i tried and still have in my collection including the new gpx 2. If you have a problem with a mouse dont make it a general statement and push people away from it. Because just like you have a problem, many people have had none. That goes for almost all top brands.

As someone who uses a tartarus daily, I say go that route. I am biased though because I love my tartarus and have used it in place of a regular keyboard for gaming for the last 10+ years. If you go for the tartarus, a Razer Basilisk is a solid option for a 'cheap' gaming mouse. You can pick it up for like $40, has good tracking, clicks feel fine. Primary reason I recommend the Basilisk as the cheap mouse alongside the tartarus is that you're already going to be using Razer Synapse software, so might as well not also have to run Corsair's iCue or Logitech's software alongside it.

I’ve had nothing but razer mice through the years. The only thing that seems to happen to them all (for me, knock on wood) is the grip on the side will come off at some point and just need to be crazy glued. No biggie. Other than that (for mice) I love them. Having had a death adder, mamba, and now basilisk I recommend the basilisk of you play a lot of deferent games like I do. It will perform more then well for competitive, but also have enough buttons to macro for action games. Being able to click the scroll button left and right is a big help. That said if you play a lot of strategy or mmo’s my brother loves the naga. Has like 15 buttons. Pretty sure they make a newer version

Name me rich wow tryhard thats willing to have 2 seperate mouse for 2 seperate reason. Most people just chill with one mouse beside very few people like me I use basilisk for moba/mmo (obviously because theres m4m5m6)

There is a whole subreddit dedicated to mice enthusiasts r/mousereview but you will get all kinds of opinions on there. I went with the [Wirecutter’s](https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/reviews/best-wired-wireless-gaming-mouse/) top pick the Razer Basilisk and have been happy with it for the last 3 years.

Been using the razer basilisk for about 6 years now and I don't see myself switching any time soon

Razer basilisk. Personally not a fan of too many buttons on the mouse

Oh!!! I like all the buttons! I've got the Razer Basilisk that works well for shooters, but it's only got 2 thumb buttons. I feel like there's a tremendous amount of utility potential with that Venue Pro though!?

I have tried 3 different razor mice over the years. Don't like them at all. I am a hardcore FPS gamer so this is my absolute most important tool for my gaming. Razor products just seem wildly overpriced for average at best performance, and shelf life. I had a terrible time with the basilisk. I'm here because last year I read some obscure blurb about a Roccat mouse. I really liked it but it's starting to fail already. Sigh... I have also had a plethora of Logitech products. I am not a big fan of Logitech either. However their mice seem far superior to razor. Just the quality of the material anc builds seem superior to razor. That being said. I am looking for something different from these to brands. If I don't find anything I'll start browsing the best logitech mouse out there. If anyone has other suggestions I would love to look at them.

Surprised the basilisk isn’t there, insanely good mouse a a little bit of a premium price.

Easily can be both. Just like my basilisk is a great work mouse

I find the Razer Basilisk line to be pretty comfortable, though it's a bit heavy. You'd likely be well served by something lighter as well to move around with less effort. Pulsar Xlite, Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 Dex and Razer Deathadder V3 are good choices.

I’ve been using a Logitech g900 chaos spectrum for about 9 years, only thing I changed is a magnetic charging port so all I have to do is retract a cable and magnetically swipe it on. It lasts for me about a week on the battery and has customizable buttons and plates. Used the basilisk as well for 6 months it just wasn’t it for me(and used plenty of other mice as well).
