oof that sucks, I bought a Razer Basilisk Ultimate in 2021 that's still going strong. Before this though I had a Corsair Ironclaw where the mousewheel shaft snapped after about a year. Replaced under warranty but the replacement had the stupid double clicking issue. I really liked that mouse it was chunky and heavy but I think it's the only mouse I've ever owned that I felt fit well in my hand.
Razer are terrible especially in the mouse game. I have a Basilisk Ultimate wireless and it has major problems with the scroll wheel and phantom/missed scrolls. Many people have reported it and it’s all down to cheap hardware with no fix available. I’d go Logitech G series if you want a gaming mouse?
I've been using a Basilisk Ultimate for a couple of years. It's comfortable for me, but I've just had to order a new battery for it from China cos it's no longer accepting charge.
Hey u/International_Use367, SUUUUUPER WEIRD but I'm in the exact situation and have spent most of the day looking for the EXACT SAME THING. I mean super exact! I too own a Basilisk (Ultimate) and I dug out my ancient Deathadder Chroma earlier today to test it out (turns out this was more comfortable than my Basilisk this whole time.. https://preview.redd.it/lt150792kxbf1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3913dd8c962b32be5869fa1eabde894b2eb64f18 I also wandered around a store today, mostly to check out the G502 because it's what everyone recommends, but the size and shape is extremely similar to the Basilisk (as far as I could tell from spending 5 minutes fondling one in a store), having handled one I have no idea why people recommend it. I think probably the next candidates I checked out were the Corsair Ironclaw, and the MX Master 3 from Logitech. Or one of those super weird vertical ergo things, but I dunno if I'm ready for that yet. I swiped this G403 Hero off someone because the scroll wheel died on it, it's pretty close to the Deathadder but there's not much in it. But if you happen to see this and find or get a recommendation that works for you, could you pass it along to me or tag me on it? Would be super appreciated.
Razer Basilisk Ultimate, 4k hours across 2 accounts.
i am using the basilisk ultimate now but razer’s support and software has been abysmal in recent years. i am thinking of making the switch the g502 because of how similar it is. i’ve lost all brand confidence and loyalty for razer. i used to have everything razer for over 10 years. disappointing, and pretty sad experience.
weird I still daily use my 2019 Basilisk Ulti other than the rubberized sections still works like a champ.

Same here. I only have a steel series keyboard now, and it’s fine, but not like you can fuck up a membrane keyboard. I do feel like my razer basilisk is of pretty good quality though. I used to have to replace steel series mice every or every other year because glue would just come apart, chords would rip, clicking would start acting up. But the basilisk v2 wireless still feels like new. I’ve had it for about a year. The app is dogshit, and I had a few hiccups with it the first week or so, but after I resolved it, it’s been smooth sailing.
