A new mouse from Razer, the Basilisk is certainly impressive, though it is not quite perfect.Starting off with its design, on one hand I really appreciate the new thumb rest – it adds a vital bit of support which is lacking from the DeathAdder Elite, so i...

Razer set out to create the world's most advanced FPS gaming mouse, and credit where it's due, Basilisk is a contender.Stylish to look at, well proportioned and suitably nimble, the £65 mouse comes equipped with a high performance optical sensor, Chro...

The Basilisk makes a bold claim for itself, but it's one that Razer has gone to great lengths to justify. Thankfully, it hasn't just thrown features at the mouse without thought, and the more unique elements like customisable scroll wheel resistance and t...
Packing deep color customization, lots of sensitivity options, and a nifty thumb grip, the Razer Basilisk is a proficient gaming mouse at a promising price...
Side buttons are undistinguishable, Scroll wheel feels slightly loose, Annoying registration requirements, No lefty version, Beta configuration software

Mouse button design wraps over edge, can be annoying
Don't get me wrong, the Razer Basilisk is a great performing and very comfortable ergonomic FPS gaming mouse with plenty of customization options. However, if you're like me, the design of the right mouse button may be just enough of an annoyance to keep...

Since the Basilisk is aimed mostly towards FPS, we have tested it in titles such as Quake Champions, Battleborn, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and DOOM. After calibration, the mouse performed excellent thanks to the modded PWM3389, which supports up to...
Adjustable thumb "clutch" easier to use than any sniper button, Comfortable thumb rest area, PWM3389 sensor closely related to the familiar PWM3360
Unconventional shape might dissuade some, Scroll wheel resistance is adjustable, but hard to get set properly, Beta version of Razer Synapse is still not great
The Basilisk's biggest issue is that, regardless of how Razer's positioning, it's a direct competitor for the DeathAdder a.k.a. one of the most popular mice in the world. And while the clutch is definitely a smart take on the Sniper button, it's not enoug...
