Razer Basilisk Gaming Mouse: 16,000 DPI Optical Sensor - Chroma RGB Lighting - 8 Programmable Buttons - Mechanical Switches - Customizable Scroll Resistance - Classic Black

For those with larger than average hands, these are very ergonomic and easy to use. Being able to adjust DPI on the fly makes gaming easier. I also like how tactile the clicks are and how comfortable it is to reach each button on the mouse with with ease. For high sense players, like myself, 16,000 dpi is way more than what the average player would need. The mouse is very responsive, and I like how the sniper button can be modified with a smaller button or removed completely. I use the smaller sniper button due to my thumb length and I can easily press it without awkwardly manipulating my thumb. For those looking for a good mouse for FPS games, this works well in APEX and Modern Warfare. My only complaint is that there is no onboad memory.

Every morning I wake up to soft sounds from my computer fans just to see how shes working. This guy is super quiet for a mouse and can keep up with my gaming easily. He sits right next to my computer as advertised. Sometimes the mouse misbehaves because it was bought used; I assumed this as I payed much less. When this happens I get a little upset and throw the mouse. My mom later comes in and complains about the fit I had just released. I assure you and her that there hasnt been any issues with the mouse after throwing it against the wall a few times. The mouse now keeps its position right next to my computer. Since the throwing, It hasnt even made a peep. It was fun while it lasted though right? Once it starts to smell, you should throw it out. Mice carry disease. Overall good mouse.

I needed a new mouse and my previous favorite mouse was no longer a possibility for me as the quality control just wasnt there. So I needed to go with a new brand. I had never purchased a Razer mouse before because I didnt like the designs. With the release of their new Basilisk mouse I decided it was time to give Razer a try. I primarily play first person shooter games. For the past so many years I have only used the Corsair M65 series mice and there didnt seem to be any alternatives. The Basilisk is a lot lighter than the M65. Comfort level is similar. It is very responsive to button clicks and has not let me down. The only complaint thus far is that the thumb buttons are mushy rather than clicky. I really dont like the way they feel. Other than that this is a great mouse. I hope Razer considers changing the buttons on the side so that this mouse will be near perfect.

I have been having problems with my Logitech wireless mouse on my Mac mini for a while. The double clicking was beyond annoying. I havent used a wired mouse in over 15 years. The build quality is amazing and no more batteries. The chroma is beautiful. I dont game anymore, at least not on computers, but this would be a great gaming mouse that is inexpensive and top quality. Im satisfied. DO NOT USE RazeSynapse on Mac, it will crash your system and force a reboot. The software is clunky. The mouse works just fine though.

Upgraded from a $15 Zelotes Mouse The fit was like the Razer Naga, so moving from there to here takes time to adapt This mouse is for the people who has no preference, as you can switch from being a palm grip to claw grip if needed. Love the middle button resistance, being high resistance for gaming and low for web-surfing Still getting used to the sniper button The school WiFi blocked the download for Razer Synapse 3, so I cant really change anything, so for now, plug & play.

The size is perfect. Ive used over 20 mice including the top G-Pro, SteelSeries Rival series, DeathAdder Elite, Zowie, you name it... this is by far my favorite. I was skeptical about the shape at first, but man its comfortable and grown on me. My problem with other similar ones such as Logitechs G502, was that it was too bulky and buttons felt cheap. This one is perfect, along with its weight, and its just smooth/accurate. I mainly play CS:GO, PUBG, and Overwatch at high levels. Great mouse, and super underrated. If you like the G-Pro size, or G502, then you will love this.

Ive had my Basilisk for about a year and ever since about two weeks in Ive noticed a subtle shift in quality. It occasionally disconnects on its own, Synapse lags up and the buttons on the sides dont work (then it bursts for each lost input) or it outright refuses to function normally. These are pretty rare now, but a month or two ago it started double-clicking for no reason, or dropping held clicks. Now it clicks whenever it so pleases, and the left click button has a slight jiggle to it. The mouse hasnt been dropped. I dont use it rough enough for it to fall apart like this from light use, especially when my last one lasted longer. Sometimes youre just unlucky... While I wait for my Steelseries mouse to ship in, I set my LMB to be disabled while left mouse click is set to the side buttons.

This mouse is kind of a sidegrade to the Logitech G502. Theyre similar in a lot of ways, particularly the shape, but each one has its own unique set of features that might suit your preferences. Some aspects of the G502 that I miss are the horizontal scrolling and the scroll wheel lock, but the Basilisk makes up for it with its DPI clutch and the ability to fine-tune the resistance of the scroll wheel. I particularly like the DPI clutch, as I use a palm grip and found myself having to stretch more than felt natural in order to press the G502s sniper button. The Basilisks clutch can be adjusted and it is the perfect length to both be easily accessible and not get in the way of normal mouse movement. All said, you really cant go wrong with either mouse.

I had to replace my Steel Series Rival as it finally gave up the ghost. I decided to go with the Razer Basilisk. Well, the Basilisk feels nice, but its not as long as my Rival was. The Rival fit my palm better, but dont get me wrong, the Basilisk is still very comfortable, and I like its rubber grips better than the Rival. I love the DPI choke. You can hold it for some slow and precise mouse movement, and release to go back to your normally set dpi. My only wish is that the Basilisk retained its settings without having to open Synapse. The Rival did this, just set it and never have to open the settings program again (even between PCs). But hey, the Basilisk is still a great mouse, and Im happy with it.

I would recommend this mouse to anyone looking to get into gaming of any kind. Its smooth, the grip is amazing, and just feels natural for my hand. Even the software is easy to use and the customizations are simple and clean. The only issue I had with this mouse was my ring and pinky finger when gaming. When playing intense games like fortnite, cs: go, or overwatch, all of the dragging can be uncomfortable on the overhanging fingers. If they could make this mouse have a finger rest on the right side, this mouse would be FLAWLESS.
