Razer - Basilisk V3 Pro 35K Optical Gaming Mouse with HyperScroll Tilt Wheel - Wireless - Phantom Green

I’ve been using the Razer Basilisk V3 Pro for the past couple of weeks, and it’s hands down one of the best gaming mice I’ve ever tried. The 35K sensor is insanely accurate, and paired with the HyperScroll Tilt Wheel, it’s perfect for both quick flicks in FPS games like CS:GO and smooth scrolling through long menus in open-world games like GTA V. The ergonomic design is super comfortable, even during long gaming sessions, and it feels like it was molded for my hand. The Chroma RGB lighting is gorgeous and syncs seamlessly with other Razer gear, but it’s more of a flex than a functional feature. Battery life is solid, and the wireless connection feels as fast as wired, which is a big win. If I had to nitpick, I’d say it’s on the pricier side, and the scroll wheel can feel a little too free at times, but that’s personal preference. Overall, it’s a beast for anyone looking for a top-tier gaming mouse with pro-level features. Definitely worth picking up if you’re serious about gaming!

Previous mouse: Razer Basilisk Ultimate Reason for purchase: needed a replacement since the scroll wheel was overshooting and rebounding, right click switch was not maintaining input on hold action. Didn't have time to try to RMA. No other mouse fits my hand (thin, long fingers) the way this one does. It works for me in a lighter half-claw-grip configuration, but a larger mousepad facilitates elbow-centric movement. The thumb rest is perfect for preventing friction with the mousepad. It also allows me to use all 3 side buttons comfortably without bending the final joint on my thumb uncomfortably. The scroll action feels way better than the Basilisk Ultimate, and can keep some good momentum when flick scrolling. I have never had a scroll wheel that functions properly and consistently, so this is refreshing. I do not personally use sensitivity switching, but I think it would be easy for someone who does. Battery life is noticeably better, and not just because it's a new mouse. I would recommend turning RGB off altogether to save battery life. My single biggest criticism for this product specifically is the lack of dock included. You can however use the mouse while it's plugged in. The upgrade to a usb 3.0 from the micro usb was a good choice. We will see how the side rubber holds up. After 3+ years of use of the previous mouse, there was major rubber grip wear on either side. Razer software could use some responsiveness and stability improvements, but otherwise works fine.

Overall, great mouse. It's heavy at 160+ grams, but I like a heavy mouse and was my main driver for selecting this model. If customization is important to a person, it's got plenty of that and is relatively easy to use. It does need charged every day, though, so be prepared for that.
