Razer - Basilisk V3 Pro

Yeah same, I now use a Basilisk V3 Pro at home, and will probably switch the one at work to a Basilisk V3 Hyperspeed, they're pretty great mice, and have the same feel as the G502, except with a magnetic scroll wheel, and bluetooth connectivity

I have had the Razer Basiilisk V3 Pro for about 3 years and no problems with the software but the mouse itself is physically breaking. for a mouse standpoint they are ehhh, but i prefer replacing more often than dealing with a software that is so bad it won't let you use it IMO

I preferred the Razer Basilisk V3 Pro that I tried. In particular due to lighter clicks, G502 X felt a bit clumsy. That could just have been the display units though. They are similar mice.

Dude, you are a mouse wizard. I did FOUR hours of research last night and came up with the Basilisk V3 PRO. I am going to buy the VT0PRO and the V3 and see what shakes out. I appreciate the response!

Just got back from Walmart with the V3. Best Buy was a bit closer but decided to buy from Walmart because they take anything back with no fuss. BB is pretty good with returns but one time years ago the gave me a hard time. The other mouse is on order. I will report back! Nope, ordered the wrong one. The mt760 or something. I cannot find this damn vt10 pro anywhere. On their website it’s only offered at retailers on the EU. The V3 pro sits lower than my MX. my pinky is scraping the mousepad. Maybe I just have to get used to it? Maybe I’ll try the G502x Plus. Crap. Why can’t Logitech make an MX master with a decent polling rate? Wish I never looked this up. I was fine with my Mx for 8 years and now I’m obsessing over it. Now that i know it’s 125 polling rate I’m thinking I’m leaving performance on the table. I spend all this money on a 180hz monitor, RTX 4080 and 14700k and I don’t want to use an office mouse anymore

Basilisk v3 Pro or newer, has an auto-freespin option which is nice to use. Option for Qi power puck charging.

Seems you like mice with more than the standard array of buttons. Of these kind of mice, I have the Aerox 5 Wireless Diablo IV Edition, the ASUS Chakram X Origin, and the Basilisk v3 Pro. The A5 works well for me, tho I had to get used to that B4-5 flip type. Battery life is kind of short, but it's a fast recharger. The ASUS Chakram X Origin has 4 sides + 4 Joystick. On the heavier side, but not too bad on glass surface. Hotswap main switches is a nice feature, along with toolless access. Basilisk v3 Pro is your G502 analog, but I find it more comfortable. I like the auto-Freespin wheel option when I am working on projects, or browsing.

You need to decide on how many buttons you want for the game, and the layout. For example, on my Basilisk v3 Pro, I have 3 side buttons, 3 wheel, and 1 DPI, so I can have up to 7 to use for a game. The Aerox 5 Wireless D4 has 5 sides, 1 wheel, and 1 DPI. nice choices if you don't care for 12 button pads

I know I'll probably get hate but the Razer basilisk line has always shaped to my hand perfectly. I had the OG for 3-4 years and finally got the V3 Pro last week, still loving it.

Been burned by both, but Razer has been better lately compared to Logitech for me. I love the Superlight 2, but the mousewheel click on mine doesn't actuate on the click, it actuates a little lower than that. The G502X's mousewheel died on me. Meanwhile, I have a Basilisk V3 Pro that's staying strong, but I just got a Pulsar Xlite V3 on Sunday that I'm trying out.

Really depends what kind of gamer you are. Many people in this sub are FPS players who value weight above everything. This almost always means 4 button mice (excluding wheel). If thats you the viper v3 pro is a solid choice. Probably the most popular mouse at the moment and for a reason. If you like using mouse keybinds something with a few more could better fit you. (Razer basilisk v3 pro, logitech g604 etc). For office work, IMO, an off the shelf 20-30$ mouse from a decent brand (logtech, asus, etc) is usually best. As long as it has soft mechanical switches, and ideally side buttons too, it works for me.

If weight isnt an issue, a Basilisk V3 PRO has everything you could possibly want. 

I use the baskilisk v3 pro. With the side scroll to set for weapon 1 and weapon 2 so you don't scroll past your weapon. Get one with side scroll.

Razer Basilisk V3 Pro: ergo shape, many buttons, hypershift (lets u double the hotkeys), heavy Razer Tartarus V2: many buttons, hypershift, second scroll gamer products are amazing for productivity.

I use the razer basliks v3 pro snd the mouse is exelenrt not to many waight not to low its perfect and it has a realy high DPI 

I've never had any issues and I've had the same razer basilisk v3 pro or some crap for legit like 2 years now. And before that I had like... 2 or 3 more that I only upgraded to newer models none had issues. Sorry you've had issues. Also, the software is optional btw. You don't have to download it.

Basilisk v3 pro 35k is my choice

Razers have pretty good support and apps for linux through openrazer, and have had support for a long long time. I've personally had several deathadders, latest was v2 pro, now i'm maining a Basilisk v3 pro.

Interesting... I get this with my Basilisk V3 Pro, quite annoying, and it's one of the things driving me to look at other mice, as well as the rubber wearing away quite quickly. Maybe it's just an issue with Razer mice in general at the moment then?

I really enjoy my Razer Basilisk V3 Pro (white) for my gaming setup - I appreciate RGB, and this mouse delivers a cool under-glow. I do however, use a G502 as my productivity mouse at the office - It has a lot of buttons, which I've set to do various things relevant to the programs I use at work. Edit: The G502 Hero (wired) is significantly cheaper, if that's a concern :)

i have the same mouse but wired, great mouse

Im using this same mouse

Razer Basilist v3 pro (wouldn’t use pro if it wasn’t my company mouse ^^)

I don't wanna rain on your parade, but the DAV V3 Pro has a huge QC issue where its sides start creaking within a few months. I myself got 2 units replaced but then just Asked Acrorma to send me a Basilisk V3 Pro and a mousepad instead as they wouldn't give me a refund. https://www.reddit.com/r/MouseReview/comments/1b0jmeo/deathadder_v3_pro_side_creaking/ https://www.reddit.com/r/MouseReview/comments/ykap75/deathadder_v3_pro_left_side_creaking/ https://www.reddit.com/r/MouseReview/comments/zj5ru3/deathadder_v3_pro_side_flexcreaking_fix/ https://www.reddit.com/r/MouseReview/comments/xxeuuc/anyone_else_having_side_creak_issues_on_their_dav3/ https://www.reddit.com/r/MouseReview/comments/108xu3m/deathadder_v3_pro_qc/ https://www.reddit.com/r/MouseReview/comments/1dlp100/each_day_that_passes_my_deathadder_v3_quality/

I suggest you go for Basilisk v3. Not sure whether you’ve previously owned a razer mouse, but I can assure you that their cables are designed in a way that most of the time you don’t even notice them. I picked up the wired version for 50 bucks on black friday. If the cable is too much of a problem for you, go for the pro version, however I highly doubt you’ll find any wireless razer mouse under $100. As for the basilisk, it has 11 programmable buttons, free spin mode for the scroll wheel and overall feels very good in my hand. Edit: The hyperspeed version is wireless and in your price range

The basilisk is my third razer mouse. The cable is braided and is super thin and flexible. Never had any issue with it despite my cables usually being tangled altogether behind my PC. Not sure about the battery life as I’ve never used a wireless mouse. A friend of mine has a cobra pro (Another razer wireless mouse) and says he charges it once a week approx. Battery life could be longer on the basilisk but you’ll have to google that.

Don't trust this list. I had the following mice Logitech 502 - Heavy, outdated Naga/Scimitar - Only useful if you want the extra buttons, wireless vesions mucho expensive Deathadder essential - Bought 2 of them since they were only 20 euro on sale, both mouse wheels stopped working and started scrolling randomly Razer Deathadder V3 Pro - Has creaking issue on the left side of the mouse and problems with coating - issues fixed in the wired version that came later Basilisk V3 - Heavy but just a bit better than the 502 MX Master 3 - SUPER HEAVY, more of a work mouse than gaming I finally settled on a Deathadder 3 wired with a bungee, quite satisfied. I would recommend it, the Hyper x Pulsfire haste 2, or some of the new mice that came out that aren't "tried and tested", as counter - intuative as that sounds.

You can adjust most settings in the Basilisk V3 through signalrgb, much more lightweight than synapse. Doesn't work for keyboards, though.

But do other brands offer the whole experience? Like for example, Razer can offer an entire lighting setup coordination. Also, what about Chroma? My gaming daily driver is a Basilisk V3, but I just bought a Rapoo MT760 for work. I've used it for one day, and the mouse is insanely good. It's extremely well built, it feels nice and it suits me. My only issue with it is the software. Being a work mouse, it's not a big deal. But if I were to use it for gaming, the software isn't as good as Synapse.

if you are going this far, spend a lil more and get basilisk v3

Thanks! We didn't include the G502 in this list as it's mainly made for FPS users, but had we included it, we would've rated the Basilisk V3 higher as it's overall better. However, the G502 definitely has its fair share of supporters and it's not a bad option!

I recently have purchased my 2nd CORSAIR NIGHTSWORD RGB after trying out a Basilisk V3 and i must say i learned the "shape is king" for mice after that. But the Night sword is a wide mouse that doesn't have a diagonal slant to the right like the basilisk V3, its very comfortable and doesn't let my pinky touch the mouse pad. it also has 10 programable buttons.

For how many of you guys ppl say it cost only 30$ but when i put in basket it says 50+ euro? Do you know the difference? Fuckin taxes are making purchase from China not worth it. I can get for 40 euro Basilisk v3 here and not bother with batteries which i bet 5$ will die in 2,3 y and then you must look to buy battery or throw it

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).

I got the razer V3 as my regular (larger mouse), a pulsar xlite V3 mini for my ergo needs and lamzu Maya X will be my 3rd and last for a while
