Razer - Basilisk X HyperSpeed

I wouldn't call Razer jank. I have owned and used quite a lot of mice from Logitech gaming (g502, retired) to the 3 and own 2 MX 3s. I also have 3 Razer mice.   * Razer Basilisk v3 Pro (previous was the Gen 1 Ultimate version which I owned as well)-> hybrid mouse between productivity and gaming, more on the heavier side vs traditional Razer mice. Intelligent charging setup (magnetic base charging) and the comes with a dongle and USB connector that is interesting. * Razer Basilisk X HyperSpeed Wireless Gaming (travel or out of my home office, mostly collects dust in a drawer now) * Razer Viper Ultimate (gaming mouse, lightweight and my go to for that) Neither companies' software is ideal, though Razer's latest release (still bloated) is better than the prior version. I prefer the MX 3s for productivity working, and Basilisk 3 for casual use, browsing, some gaming, if my Viper is charging or I want to go with a heavier feel mouse.

I have a Basilisk X Hyperspeed. It supports Bluetooth, but I use it via the USB-A adapter because I share the same KVM between my work laptop and personal desktop.

Razer Basilisk X HyperSpeed, there is an all black version, been using one for 2 years now and can recommend

I have a Razer Basilisk X Hyperspeed mosue and like it.

I have the Razer Basilisk X Hyperspeed and being able to just throw in a freshly charged AA battery when it runs out of juice is just perfect. Way better than charging it with a cable.

My basilisk x hyperspeed lasted 4 years and i threw that thing across my room regularly

Imo Razer is not that good. I had everything from razer. headphones, mouse, mousepad, keeb etc. and I can say that the overall build quality is bad, but razer makes good switches. Switches in razer huntsman mini are really good. Edit: Headphones - Razer kraken first gen and Razer kraken X USB - broken after 5 months (Same happened to all my friends) Mouse - Razer basilisk X and Razer Viper - Viper fast teardown and rattling problem, basilisk - Sometimes it was losing connection (the receiver was 1m away from the mouse) Keyboard - Actually good I still have it

The basilisk x hyperspeed too, just depends what shape he prefers. They are both great

I really like this one but I don’t think it’s made anymore. Razer Basilisk X Hyperspeed Razer 5G Advanced 16K DPI Optical Sensor Wireless Gaming Mouse with Up to 450 Hours of Battery Life, Mechanical Mouse Switches (Black)

I had a similar issue with the Basilisk x hyperspeed, upgraded to the MX Master 3s and it was a very comfortable fit. It's just stupid heavy.

DAM, idk, my friend has a basilisk x hyperspeed for the whole year, only his wireless usb thingy broke(idk wat he did) but it runs perfectly well no problem, i literally use it as well

Razer basilisk x hyperspeed, really good mouse

Razer Basillisk X. Very useful for browsing and small games. Got it for 35$ in 2023

I have a razer basilisk hyperspeed. I have big hands and find this mouse very comfortable.

Too unreliable. I once bought a Razer Bazilisk X Hyperspeed. And its wheel started glitching after 2 months, and after 4 it was so bad that the mouse became literally unusable.

basalisk x hyperpseed razor mouse has done me wonders for like 4 years.

Razer basilisk hyperspeed i got on sale for 20 bucks has lasted me 3 years. Middle click is going out but i feel like thats the first thing to go on any mouse.

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.

my DA 3500g last for 12 years until the wheel gave up. I changed for a basilysk wireless from razer, that pos couldn't last a year and a half, suddenly stopped working, never buying razer products again. oh!, and when the basilisk died my trusty DA replaced until i bought a G305, i miss the shape of the DA tho.

Yep 100% that mouse lasts forever if you take care of it. I also use the Razer Basilisk wireless as a secondary since it has a similar shape (but feels a bit too light).

I use the basilisk and its really good so check that out if you want

But im getting barely 2 days of battery life with local batteries while the orginal ones lasted me for like 3 years so you might have issues with that

I dont know cos i have the wireless one but i assume that will be great considering you wont need to worry about battery

That was my mouse for a long time because i couldn't use any normal mouse, but razer basilisk saved me

It affects battery life too much since most people are turning towards wireless. There are still some mice like G502 X Plus with lines on its back or one of the Razer Basilisk even has it on the sides so it shines on the mousepad.

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.

As other people mentioned: Logitech superlight Razer viper v3 pro Razer deathadder v3 pro (fakers mouse) And i think the g 605 and razer basilisk also have a few users

Windows can only recognize two side buttons natively and they're always called Mouse4 and Mouse5. Other buttons have to be assigned to a keyboard button, otherwise they won't be recognized. Look for MMO-mice if you want really many buttons. Otherwise Logitech G502, Razer Basilisk and Glorious Model i2 are options to consider.

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

I like my basilisk but I hate razor software and there’s no hardware default for the rgb so I’m stuck with the awful rainbow effect

Depends on your preferences. I have small hands and just bought a Razer Basilisk. It's one of the biggest "gaming mice" but still small relative to a typical hand.

How? My Razer Lancehead wireless lasted me almost 8 years before battery died out and double clicks started to happen. I just switched to the Basilisk but just 2 years? That's surprisingly a short life for a mouse

Same experience with my deathadder 😂 My basilisk is starting to do that too 🥲

Corsair's 502 is the M65, Razer's is the Basilisk. Though, I don't think any of them are particularly big mice, the 502 is just really really heavy because of the metal scroll wheel and freescroll, and the side support for the big ass sniper button.

It really depends on OP’s grip style. That’s called a palm grip in the second photo, and it’s a very common grip style.

It's one of the three most common grip styles. People who use a palm grip just move their whole hand across their mousepad if they use a lower DPI. https://preview.redd.it/n3sox6v4kgff1.png?width=1500&format=png&auto=webp&s=c80ca80c73e45362be8d21360d74e338ad02a671

I use a fingertip grip, although the example in the photo is a bit exaggerated. I used to use a palm grip until it got too uncomfortable and my grip style changed over time.

I would go with either a DeathAdder or a Basilisk if you use a palm grip (the way you’re gripping your mouse in the second photo).

G502 and Basilisk are almost identical in size. This dude’s hands are just massive. I have “big” hands and the basilisk was the best sized mouse I could find

I ownes a basilisk for a year now and it smoothed over the part where my thumb is but nothing like that. I just covered it with grip tape and it's fine now.

My hands are about the same size. I used to have a basilisk and it always felt small and annoying. Now I use a G502 Lightspeed. It's still a little small, but the little tab that supports your thumb makes it easy to control the mouse without having to pinch your grip. Imo it's very comfortable.

My razer basilisk got that problem a year after I purchased it. Never another razer product in my life I swear

I usually look for mice that don't have too many side buttons. I never click them, and I never accidentally click them, but I only find the DPI buttons necessary sometimes, and that's fine. My Naga was better suited for MMOs, but I ended up stopping using it due to my busy day-to-day workload. So I started using the Mamba more. Its size is perfect for anything, and I find it very comfortable. I've used the Basilisk a few times with the Deathadder v2. The only drawback with the V2 was the DPI buttons on the right-click and the fact that both are battery-operated.

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 replaced my Logitech g502 with a razer basilisk a few years ago and have zero regrets. Zero mechanical issues and feels better than the g502 imo.

I loved my Death Adder but let me tell you, I love my Basilisk even more. Time for an upgrade big guy.

Because I prefer a mouse like the Basilisk and I'd rather not rely on my thumb for so many things.

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.

I have hands slightly smaller than yours but I have the same problem and yes basilisk and naga are the only ones that doesn't feel that bad to grab but still... I'm considering buying one of those ergonomic vertical mice just to try and see if that works :(

Realistically speaking other than the Razer Basilisk and the SteelSeries Aerox 9 there isn’t much else out there I believe.

As I said I wouldn’t choose that one either, I’d rather choose the basilisk to be honest. It’s also depend by how many buttons you need and whether you might also want to consider a dual device setup. For instance if you need it for something like WoW whilst I appreciate it’s a matter of preference, I don’t a mouse with a lot of buttons is the right answer.

i had a raza naga and basilisk. I also tried a g203 and razer viper, both of which were too small for my hands.

I’ve used the Basilisk before… dude, your hands are freaking massive!

I prefer the basilisk to those mmo mice. I can't get used to so many buttons that feel the same all in one place. The basilisk gives me plenty of buttons while feeling unique so I don't accidentally press the wrong one. I also use shift and ctrl as modifiers to give myself extra buttons as well.

My basilisk has been doing great for two years now

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

bought 2 last year, deathadder and basilisk, first just died after 4 months, second free spin doesn't work anymore, should've stayed with logitech, g403 still works fine after 7 years , g502 too, they just look bad with the rubber worn off

Razer basilisk! Loved the shape in spite of the weight and how long wireless lasted(had to recharge every couple months maybe)

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.

This is one of my problems. I am a gamer and I do office work. The preciseness of mouse is absolute garbage on MX Master. I ended up using my own Razer basilisk on work mouse instead lol.

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 may want to look into gaming keypads like the Orbweaver or Tartarus. I find them very comfortable and intuitive for basically all games, but especially MMOs. For mice, I typically do ergonomic with 2,3 thumb bumpers like the g502 or basilisk

Used to have the Naga with the swappable side plates.almost never used the 12 configuration as it felt too clustered. Currently with a basilisk and similar profile to the Logitech one posted If you genuinely thinkk your gonna make the most of macros alot of the time and have the effort to bind all these, Naga other wise logic.

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

It is, I gave my sister my g502 and was using a razer basilisk, they're pretty much exactly the same size

I love my Razer Basilisk. It's lightweight and very ergonomically comfortable, a button for changing custom dpi profiles, thumb up and down, RGB, and most importantly and customizable scroll wheel. There's a wheel underneath that you can turn to slowly set the scroll wheel to have tighter more defined steps (i.e. more resistant) or go the other way and make it looser. This let me find the absolute perfect balance of how fast I want to scroll in game. Can't remember if I have v2 or v3, I think it's the older one. I'd check but I'm on a trip rn not at home...

[Eloshapes is pretty great for comparing mouse shapes](https://www.eloshapes.com/mouse/compare?p=logitech-g502-x-lightspeed-vs.-keychron-m7-vs.-razer-basilisk-x-hyperspeed)  I find that Razer's Basilisk sits perfectly in my hand (rather long fingers). However, I was really annoyed when that thing died after mere 3 years. That’s to say nothing of their software. Since then I got Keychron M7. Ergonomics are slightly worse, but it's an infinitely better mouse in every other way. 

If you used superlight 2 and you liked that shape, pulsar just released a new shape colab, pulsar susanto x (it is similar but not same exact shape). A lot of people said is tood, you can watch some reviews on youtube. I have xlite v4 size 2, lamzu thorn, razer basilisk, and pulsar x2h. Now I am waiting in my new susanto X.

Big hand person here as well, the closest I've come to getting anything remotely close to fit my hand is the Basilisk.

Our hands are about the same size and I’ve loved using the Razer Basilisk. I do have my complaints about the price but I love how it fits my hand and it’s held up pretty well over a few years.

Razer basilisk is an excellent mouse.

Huge fan of Razer basilisk . Would recommend it. Wired version is under 40 bucks.

Dang that thing is huge. Definitely not a portable mouse. Trying to find a portable mouse with rgb. But I think the basilisk is even too big so might have to go the original pro click the basilisk mobile or the new co ra hyper speed is at least more slim

I usually use a basilisk, but this will be for my legion go setup and that mouse is way to big.to fit in the bag so unless I go with the mobile one, I feel cobra may be best bet. Unless I decide to go mega portable and just stick with logi stuff. But the new cobra is by far the lightest of all the mice which is surprisingly as its not battery powered like most the others

Naga felt worse for me than Basilisk. The pinky rest was nice, but not having the thumb rest that the Basilisk has was a huge no go and I ended up returning the Naga because of it. I had to change my grip to avoid hitting the side buttons because my thumb was not at rest.

I actually had that setup for my gaming PC and loved it EXCEPT, if I will say I had random disconnect/reconnections if I used that extra Mouse Dock Pro as my wireless receiver. Not sure if that was eventually patched, I moved on to the Razer Viper V3 Pro. If you aren’t getting that extra charging dock you shouldn’t have anything to worry about, but if you are (or are open to it) I’d see if people are still experiencing the reconnects. I will say, the ProClick, the Balsilisk, both are very comfortable. You’d be happy either way Not an ad I just really like Razer’s mice 😂

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 had a Deathadder from like 2011 or 2012 until 2021 and I’ve had a Basilisk ever since. The Deathadder still had life in it, I just felt like getting a Basilisk.

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

Ich also have big hands and love the Razer Basilisk Or the Logitech G502

Your hands look slightly longer than mine and the Basilisk feels like a toy to me

i have large and thick hands, 8+ inches from middle finger to palm and razer naga was the most comfortable mouse I've ever tried and I've had many. It felt molded. I got the razer basilisk and meh 🤢

Same thing happened to my death adder. I replaced it with a basilisk. Pretty happy. Very comfortable mouse for a larger hand.

I just got the Pro Click V2, and it's good for large hands. I had the Basilisk before I got this one, and it was great too, but the Pro Click V2 is a bit bigger and has a great ergonomic shape.

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)

Superlight fan here too. I have the 502X and the Basilisk and never use them. Plus they don't come in magenta like this does, which is critically important.

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.

I use the basilisk as well and it's the largest I have found for gaming that's somewhat normal so lmk if you figure out a bigger and better option

I think the only thing MX Master has that Basilisk doesn't is a better scroll wheel.

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

That logitech is comparable to the basilisk, not so much the naga

For a lightweight, superlight Dex. If you are ok with more weight, the Razer basilisk has the most comfortable shape for palm imo.

Only issue with razer mice is the scroll wheel problem. Have used basilisk and orochi v2 and both had the scrolling problem that when you scroll down it sometimes keeps scrolling up. Changing the encoder works or properly clearing dust from the inside but mane are these mice so hard to reassemble and the fact you need to know how to solder to replace the encoder yourself.

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

the battery in my basalisk lasts about 1/3 as long as my old as crap pwnage (zero lights enabled on both). that was brand new. now a year and a half in, the rubber where your thumb lays on the left side has worn through to the plastic. pretty disappointed.

Razer Basilisk. For the extra buttons on the mouse I have the map, auto run and sound decrease set to them. Used the mamba tournament edition before that and it lasted me 10+ years before it started having issues. I love the shape of the basilisk tho. Much more comfortable

Deathadder, go with it. Or save up and buy Basilisk

Yeah and it's a great mouse. Personally I love its shape. Super comfy

you might need a 3d printer. your hands are massive and the razer basilisk is one of the larger mice available. only thing bigger would be a track ball mouse.

My old razer viper mini and basilisk are still going strong with 0 issues.

Yep same love the basillisk

I went on a similar journey as you, from mx master 3, then razer basilisk, then Logitech g502x, then Keychron M6. My main goal was to find something that fit the ergonomic shape of mx master, but a wired version of that. I have just started using the Redragon M811, and I’m loving it so far. It fits in my hand much better than the M6. It’s also wired and has a *ton* of buttons you can map. There’s no horizontal scroll wheel though. This one is definitely the best I have found for my goal of wired mouse that feels similar in shape to mx master.

I use a Razer Basilisk and cheap Razer mouse pad...i should probably invest in something better but don't really know where to start I'm currently gold complete

My Deathadder mouse broke when our rabbit chewed through the cable. I had that thing for many years with no problems. I bought a Razer Basilisk to replace it and it's been great. I've also had a Razer Blackwidow Elite keyboard for 2 years and some of the keys just started occasionally not registering key presses. The "o" key, the windows key and the "|" (pipe) key, all of which I use a lot. When it stops registering key presses it might be for a few minutes, hours or days before it magically starts working again. Razer support wont even talk to you when the keyboard is out of warranty. I am not happy about that at all and am replacing it with a Keychron V6. I used to buy Logitech stuff but they were even worse quality. I never had a Logitech mouse last more than 2 years before it started double clicking. Their keyboards are garbage too. The wireless on them doesn't reach more than 2 feet. Anything further than that and I get connection drops. I'll never buy Logitech again. I'm not quite there with Razer because I do like their mice. I work from home and use the mouse and keyboard for at least 8 hours a day. I went with the Keychron keyboard this time because the switches are hot swappable so if one breaks I can take it out and pop another in.

Sorry this is gonna be long response but your problem is something I have explored for a while and am passionate about lol. I agree it's pretty frustrating to find light mice with lots of buttons. I also love mice with 6+ buttons. Besides the aforementioned Aerox line (or even Rival 5) from Steelseries, there aren't a lot of options as they all start pushing 100g. An alternative is the corsair m65 which has tilt gestures, or the razer basilisk, but these mice are still 100g There are a couple things you can do to solve your problem though. One is software related, and the other is ergonomic modding related. Software can increase your binds, while modding can make mice (feel) lighter # Software: Use button shifting/layering in software to increase the number of buttons you have available. The only companies that I know of that do this is Logitech (G-shift), Razer (hypershift), Roccat (Easyshift) and fortunately your Glorious mouse (Layer Shift)! Try playing around in your glorious CORE software to enable layer shift and then you can effectively double/triple your binds # Modding: Mod your existing mouse (or one you like with lots of buttons) to improve ergonomics and grip strength. This in turn allows a stronger hold on your mouse thus making it feel lighter. This is pretty much what I did when all the mice I liked were heavy but had 8+ buttons lol For example, I too love my g600 and use it for a lot of stuff. I took it apart to solder new switches and i found out it has 2 metal plates inside to add weight (absolute blasphemy!). I took those out and it reduced the g600 by 30g, so now it's only about 100g, which is pretty light by my personal standards. Then I added grip tape to the sides and a wedge for my pinky, then switched out the stock cable for a paracord cable and now the g600 feels like a lightweight dream to use. Consider Clawmates by Struth Gaming for comfortable wedges to put on a mouse with lots of buttons. I use clawmates on a spatha X and razer basilisk for competitive FPS games and they feel plenty good to flick and track with, even with their heavy weights Hopefully all this info helps. Happy mouse searching/modding, pal! #

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.

Not to mention that synaps is god tier awful. Seriously, it's like they go out of their way to have shit software. Back when I had a basilisk It was a constant struggle just to get synaps to open. Even after adding permissions, I'd have to do a funky chicken dance of opening normally, then open as an admin, then open normally again just to get synaps to let me in lol. And that only had like a 75% success rate. I've since got a logitech and had 0 problems.

I just switched from Logitech MX Masters to Basilisks, of cause Basilisks performance is way better. But from my hold experience ergonomic perspective I think the MX Masters shape holds better.I can see the Pro Click shape is close to MX Masters

The Pro Click is lack of the big side button which I do need for a shortcut. I don't know, I'm a casual player occasionally play some games, maybe just stay with Basilisks for now which I think is a good balance for me.

I think I'm highly align with you. I'm looking for a mice can do both productivity and game, maybe 70% productivity & 30% games. I do play MMO, like WoW but I don't need those buttons like Naga. All I need is something can be a good balance for productivity and casual player. Like you said, MX Master 3S is the king, but it doesn't support onboard memory which means I cannot have my customised key on work laptop

It can happen for any number of reasons. Most common is from moisture and oils in your skin. Secondarily is from high heat and/or humidity. Then there is breakdown from chemicals, extraneous oils, and other reasons. As an example; The thumb-side on my Basilisk has degraded down to the plastic underneath, and the pinky side has a definite groove and the texture has almost disappeared in other spots. However, I live in an environment that is 30 C average indoors (I don't use AC, just fans) and around 80% average relative humidity. Soft-touch Rubber degrades into a gummy mess, and leatherette delaminates, peels and flakes within a few months. So if you live in a relatively cool and dry environment (not super cold, the rubber will crumble that way too) then it is much more durable.

I use a razer black widow keyboard and basilisk mouse. So far I've had no problems and I have some fun with the chroma RGB lighting. I'm also just a casual gamer For a headset I have the Steel Series actis nova. It's wonderful

Got razer basilisk for about 5y, still going but may need to replace soon. Got for 40ish € back then. I believe 100€ mouse are stupid overpriced (mine already is as well tbh).

Well I got the aerox 9 and the corsair scimitar. I bought the Scimitar later because the Aerox broke after just under two years. The Aerox looks nice and is lighter, but its design is simply flawed. All the dirt gets in, and there's no real way to clean it. After using the Scimitar for a while, I have to say that it's the better mouse in a direct comparison. I also have a Razer Basilisk, and of all the Razer products I've had, I've always thought that they were far too overpriced.

I also have a keyboard from Corsair. I therefore recommend the Scimitar. Believe me, you'll be happier with this mouse than with the Aerox or a Razer product

Basilisk. With the buttons on the mouse remapped to ensure my keyboard hand doesn't have to reach for buttons in a funky way. I find a mouse with more buttons better... but not too many as to get confused or hit the wrong buttons by accident.

dunno... basilisk feels good for me https://preview.redd.it/1uttm0h4fwbf1.jpeg?width=1536&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f7a4a3f07fe8186ab79cb357ff4d930b6c680e88

I use raser basilisk, the one with three buttons on the side and I use mouse software to map ctrl and shift to the front button and the pressure paddle beneath it, and use the button closest to the base of my thumb for tab targetting. Can use around 40 actions comfortably with qe12345rtfgvbn and a combination of shift, ctrl or shift and ctrl as my hotbar buttons

Thats fucking crazy. I specifically bought the basilisk bc my hands are massive (about 9.5-10 inches) and it was just barely big enough, bc it looks like a fuckin golfball for you. the only one i can think of its the sniper pro by red dragon, but even that one's just slightly bigger than the basilisk

Mac support is improving. They recently released Razer Synapse for Mac, currently in beta. Previously, I had to setup my Razer Basilisk on a separate Windows PC. Tested the beta, no issues with it on Mac now.

Bro I have the same issue. I too use it as an excuse for my aim lol. The unfortunate part is that even if you google gaming or computer mice for big hands. the Basilisk (I own the same one.) is actually in the top 3 pretty consistently. If you want to stick with razer then see if there new ergo Pro Click V2 vertical would fit. Also report back, I'm curious lol. the logic is that because it's vertical it is more palm too mouse ration. My logic in this thinking is that I'm a care giver for disabled adults. I recently helped one of my clients who had a stroke use a Azeron Cyro (look it up they are really cool, but expensive). Since I can use both hands i help him get all the macro keys set up per game he wants to play. What I noticed is that the fact that its a vertical build. For my hands. (which are pretty similar to yours.) actually fit in that mouse VERY comfortably. Just some food for thought.

I just switched to a Basilisk as well. My only two gripes are that when using the scroll wheel, there is a loud, audible click when switching between regular and infinite scrolling. Also, battery life is no where near the MX3s that I had, but overall I am still happy.

My Razer basilisk has been going strong for like 3 years so far, the biggest problem is the scro wheel is much looser but that’s, entirely my fault when trying to make it speed fast while unlocked…

I have a Razer Basilisk that was doing that kind of crap, getting mad at it not clicking right by slamming it on my desk seemed to fix it, might as well give it a try. 🤷🏻

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

Basilisk is my experience with large hands the best option from razer

people on here are super into peformance above all else so you won't find any RGB mice recommendations but like others said the G502X Plus and the latest Razer Basilisk are still really well, well built mice with very good tech (sensors, clicks etc) that have RGB. The main issue for me with RGB is that it kills battery life. And wireless today is so good, to have my G502X's battery life drop from 100 hours to 30 hours just so it can look nice on the desk is not worth it. But the wired G502X doesn't have any RGB (what the fuck Logitech) so I don't know what to tell ya.

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 went from the MX3 to basilisk too and never looked back. It's an all around better mouse. Lower the polling rate and you'll get good battery life too

Yeah I'm with you, never personally experienced bad Razer products. I'm still running a Huntsman/Basilisk combo I got in 2019, before that was Black Widow from maybe 2013? I only swapped because I wanted the new Quartz kb/m combo, the Black Widow went to my wife who used it right until she bough her Mac and swapped to the Mac keyboard! It still works but it's relegated to the cupboard for now.

The Basilisk is a great mmo mouse, plenty of buttons and you can make macros to save on a bit of button mashing.

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).

Same hand size and same mouse!  You do get used to it, I think the Basilisk is the best for the size and the side wing for your thumb.  Remember though, bigger mices are not better for aiming, they are heavier and will require more effort to move, even if you don't feel it, there will be more delay since it will require more force to move as if you had a lighter one. 

I've had good experiences with Razer, have both a Basilisk and a Deathadder V2 Hyperspeed and both are awesome. They use a AA battery and it lasts a loooooong time.

I have a literal box of deathadders because I had this thing where I thought I had to keep the same mouse to keep my aim consistent...they'd double click after like 1 month. I must have like 7 of them... Eventually said fuck it and got a basilisk, optical buttons. They can't double click. I think the fact I clicked them on the front left edge caused them to break faster, too much leverage.

Man, I still have remember finding this guy on super clearance in a local mall about 10 years ago, what a awesome mouse with a fun UI for its customization software. It's definitely not as big, but I've been using the Razer Basilisk, so a mouse that's that shape might be solid option as a replacement imo

I use an MMO mouse with 1-12 on the side. Program those buttons to whatever you like, for example in FPS’ I use 4 as melee and 5 as grenade, etc. I’ve used razer naga molten, v2 and I just bought hyperspeed, love them. I’d recommend something like that. https://i5.walmartimages.com/asr/ff3c0108-ae4d-4e03-a3ac-6c69a45d4e22.f6153b072aacaf0ff4f99182a3db7949.jpeg

I have the razer hyperspeed, don't get it. It uses batteries and weighs so much unless you get special batteries. Haven't had 1 and 2 but go with one of them
