A: Hey there Angie the length of the cable is " 1.80m long," I bought this mouse for my son for his gaming. It seemed pretty long if u ask me.

Excellent entry level gaming mouse
I purchased this mouse for my son as he wanted to change over from a wireless mouse to a wired mouse while gaming. Needless to say this mouse met all of his expectations and them some. The buttons have a nice click feel to them and the mouse is spot on responsive with zero latency. It has RGB lighting with a textured scroll wheel and is also comfortable in the hand for long gaming sessions. For the price compared to the value it’s definitely worth giving it a try as you won’t be disappointed.

The best mouse in the history of mouses!!
A must upgrade from any mouse you currently own. Heck i also want to by another one just for work because i cant use anything else but this. The mouse is so comfortable in the hand and the responsiveness is insane! And the custom DPI that you can set for yourself makes it even the more worth it. It is very easy to install because it comes with a driver and app already installed into the mouse so it automatically does the updates and downloads as soon as you plug it, no need to go to a website and download drivers and an app and restart the pc etc, looking at you logitech. As someone that had the logitech g502 hero for a few years, i now remember why i kept telling myself not to buy logitech anymore because they dont last long even with the most care out there. And in comparison to the hero, the basilisk 3v is a no brainer and a better mouse in every way! Weight, comfort , features, im a huge fan that the dpi buttons are not next to the left click like in the hero, that way there arent any accidental presses, so the left click feels bigger and easier to use even for just working at home and gaming. Overall this is a must buy and i highly recommend it! And the RGB lights on it are outstanding!!
