Razer Basilisk V3 Customizable Ergonomic Gaming Mouse: Fastest Gaming Mouse Switch - Chroma RGB Lighting - 26K DPI Optical Sensor -Classic Black

I love this mouse! I have a claw grip typically, but interestingly enough with this mouse I use a full palm grip. Its very comfortable even with long gaming sessions and combined with the razer Goliath pad it GLIDES. I did get one that was DOA, and even though the manual says to contact Razer for support NOT Amazon or the seller, after a lot of back and forth I happily went through Amazon for a replacement instead. The second one came in and worked perfectly so I wont dock a star, it happens.

In all honesty, this is the best feeling mouse Ive tried... and Ive tried. Searched for ergo mice, tried the g502, nothing feels quite as good in my hand. If you dont want all the fancy lighting there are cheaper options... but theyre all variations of the basilisk. And my only gripe with the v3 is the wire. But if youve got the cash, the v3 pro is the perfect mouse. (Which I full intend to upgrade to)

I was a long time use of Logitech with the G502 or MX Master. I had several issues with them like left button double clicking automatically and so was upset by it. If I used Logitech it was mainly for the infinite scroll. I discovered that this mouse also support infinite scroll and has overall the same features as the G502. On top it works with bluetooth removing the need from using the dongle if you dont want to. So I got this one and it works well, at least with bluetooth. I had issue with the dongle but as bluetooth work well I am fine with it.

Pros: 1 Heavy for those who are able to use precision muscle movement or have large desks for long movement in FPS and other games that involve constant movement like aiming a large turret or a game that requires lots of movement to complete a task. 2 Precise when needed thanks to a DPI Sniper Mode that can be defined as a super low DPI that results in precision pointing. 3 Ease of Use - Razer software automatically recognized the device, configured it to default settings and launched Razer Synapse to configure the device with tool tips and ease of use to the user. 4 Easy to Configure - Razer Synapse showed me all the functions and features within seconds. 5 RGB is easy on the eyes, not to bright or overpowering to peripheral vision. 6 Touch Button Mouse Wheel interlock, i love this feature. just touch the button mouse wheel is free to spin or has slight friction via ridges in the mouse wheel surface. CONS: 1 if you are a fat finger gamer with larger than normal hands or finger thickness, this mouse might catch you on a couple things: A: Mouse wheel click is EASILY triggered by left or right finger hitting up against it in a fast pace high rigid moments of FPS or high intensity gaming moments. 2 The Thumb rest is a bit over engineered, pro-longed sessions of the user might result in soreness of the side of the thumb from sitting on the resting spot, it has no padding of any kind to mitigate this. just a thin textured rubber surface. 3 DPI this is the first mouse Ive used that does not allow dynamic Up and/or Down on the fly adjustment, it is just sequential 1,2,3,4 and 5. you cannot go up 2, then down 1. you have to cycle through the entire set of DPI settings you as the user configure and there is no indication of which DPI you are currently using via RGB or some kind of status indicator. every mouse i had prior to this does this. Razer is the first that does not. Overall, i am a happy gamer with the Basilisk 3.

I bought this mouse 7 months ago so. It was *amazing* until it wasnt: A few days ago the middle mouse button stopped clicking. I took razers advice and ran through their steps to try to fix it, but its a hardware failure. Out of curiosity, I googled the issue before I decided if I was going to bother RMAing the device: Everything I found pointed to this failure of the scroll wheel click being not just a common problem on the Basilisk Pro, but on MOST of Razers mice. They cheap out on the non-optical switches they use, of which that button is one, and as a result they fail *all the time*. So no, Im not RMAing the mouse. Im tossing it and going back to the G502 it replaced that Ive been using for like 8 years with no problem. I thought it was time to upgrade and I love Razers keyboards, so I figured Id be good. I was wrong on all counts.

just beautiful.... and fast

I have the Razer keyboard. Probably the best feeling and operating keyboard that Ive ever owned. This mouse seems to have an issue with accuracy with the left click. I find myself having to click several time for a response. Hopefully, its just my mouse and not an engineering flaw.

So I bought this mouse some time around New Year’s Day, and was pleased with mouse’s look except, being a avid razer product user I noticed some things were missing like stickers,1-year warranty registration card, manual, no cap on the usb cord for the mouse, etc. and the mouse wheel was tight and wouldn’t scroll well. then one morning I had booted my computer up and razer synapse had booted up like normal. But, my mouse wheel had finally given out, and the LEDS were all different colors in all sections other ones that wouldn’t change at all, would remain a red glow no matter the color or effect I’d set it to. Furious as I had the mouse no less than two weeks and it already bricked itself. But I’ve worked with razers Support in the past and they are always more than reasonable, and I ended up sending it back free of charge, and another one came via one day shipping, and I was shocked to see everything I was missing that I had mentioned was there for my replacement model, leading me to believe I was originally sent a used or refurbished model. I’ve had no issues since I’ve at least passed the two week mark, also this isn’t uncommon for razer products in my household as I’ve mentioned this wasn’t my first time reaching out to their support. I will update if anything changes!

Got this as a Christmas present and had several damn it! Moments it is a awesome mouse the response is on point. finally QI charging a real plus and the battery at times did not charge it for almost a month and that is constantly using it. Great mouse a little pricey but it is worth it.

Really 4-1/2 stars. The Razor Basilisk V3 is nearly perfect hardware. The shortcomings are in the software and firmwear. Pro Built solid and not a rattle trap like my old logitech. Scroll wheel in clicky mode is the perfect resistance. All the switches have excellent feel and response. Being optical switches I dont expect issues with switch chatter Big enough for my big hands. The scroll wheel acceleration is cool if a bit gimmicky Cons Lighting profiles cant be stored in the onboard profiles. The lighting is a rotating color without the software. I use a KVM and wish I could just set the mouse to solid color for the systems that dont have synapse installed. The synapse software sometimes fails to detect a game is running and doesnt switch profiles. Conclusion Im replacing a Logitech G502 and that mouse served me wall but I never liked its scroll setup. It needed frequent cleaning and the Logitech isnt exactly easy to get into. for the necessary cleaning. (Cat hair). The logitech died of worn out switches. Something that I doubt will be a problem with optical switches. The Basilisk feels more solid than the Logitech despite being lighter. It just feels like quality.
