I've been playing and working with Razer mice for years and have most of their models on hand: DeathAdder Elite, Mamba Elite V2, Naga Trinity and now the Basilisk V2. The oldest is the DeathAdder Elite that is at least 4 years old. It's shiny from wear but works just as good as it did on the first day. I keep hearing folks complain about the Razer's quality and, I suppose, I am one of those lucky individuals that never had any issues with their products, thus I purchased all the mice listed above over the years to try different designs and see how they all feel. The Naga has been my favorite due to the shape -- I have a large hand and it's very comfortable to use it, I love how my hand just kind of rests on it, it almost feels as if it was molded around my palm. The Basilisk is the very close second favorite and I will explain why. This is predominantly my FPS mouse, while the Naga I use for RPGs more often than not. Basilisk is a very precise mouse. It's by no means small but more narrow then Naga and the rubber sides together with the thumbrest make it very easy to grip and execute precise movements using various hand, wrist and arm muscle groups together. Naga in that regard is a bit more clumsy and relaxed, still capable in shooters by all means but the Basilisk has an edge over it in such type of games. The extra buttons are very well placed. They are easily accessible but don't get in my way, so I don't trigger them by an accident, which sometimes happen when I use the DeathAdder or Mamba. The feature to control the sensitivity of the scroll-wheel is genius! I have it set to have the most resistance. Switching weapons by an accident in the middle of action is no longer a thing. The sensitivity adjusting wheel feels a bit flimsy but it's on the bottom of the mouse and so far worked as intended, so I don't think this is a problem but, perhaps, could be a long term point of failure. I had this mouse so far for a couple of months, so I can't say how it will be years from now, but so far -- so good! The main buttons are very long, longer than on any other mice I ever used, and are quite sensitive, but not to the point that I press them easily by an accident. They are quick and very easy to trigger when needed. Activating sniper-type weapons when the time is right, but not a second later, feels just right, and it seems the philosophy behind the design was exactly that -- to give the user that ability to trigger weapons as fast as possible using muscles within nearly the entirety of fingers. This also gives it that elongated "alien spaceship" type look that I very dig. The weight of fingers is evenly distributed along the length of the buttons. It glides very easy and feels at home on any mat but works especially well with hard surface mats. On the bottom it has extensive low friction inserts that make it feel stable and quick. At first I was skeptical of the thumbrest, and I never owned a mouse with one before, but it's certainly there for more comfort and better control, certainly not just for looks. When it comes to looks, I think it's their most good looking mouse. Very elegant, though, of course this is subjective. To me the looks are a plus but I certainly don't buy mice for their looks (well, maybe the Mamba Elite is an exception, haha). Somewhere I read that it has one of the best sensors out there, I can't comment on that as all Razer mice to me feel good and I mostly use the 1800 DPI setting on all of them with the ultra-wide 1440p main screen I use. There were no glitches with the sensor, it has been working fantastic all this time. This could be a placebo and, perhaps, this has more to do with the overall design of the mouse, but it feels very precise, more precise than my DeathAdder but, again, this could be unrelated. Overall, it's an amazing FPS mouse that in my world takes the crown from the DeathAdder in that regard. It's the mouse that I take along to use with my laptop most of the time as it's nearly as comfortable to me as the Naga but lighter and not as tall, which makes makes it fit my backpack pockets better. I like using it for work as well. There's absolutely nothing negative to state about it, minus the flimsy-ish resistance regulation wheel for the scroll-wheel but, as mentioned earlier, it is on the bottom of the mouse and doesn't need to be tanky at all to perform its function well, which it does. I certainly would recommend this mouse to pretty much everyone. Whether you are a professional that needs a very precise mouse or an e-sports star -- it's an amazing mouse to have. My Mamba and DeathAdder are jealous as lately I've been using exclusively the Basilisk and the Naga, though the other mice do make good display pieces :)

I checked out the Basilisk v2 wired mouse the other day as it was on sale and I needed a new mouse. I used Razer products for a decade and was generally satisfied until I noticed a trend wherein any given mouse would break after a couple years. The wheel would lose traction, or one of the thumb buttons would stop responding, something like this. Can't yet speak about this product's longevity since I just got it, but I can say it feels great to use from the start. The buttons are ergonomically placed, the wheel's scroll resistance is adjustable, and the extra thumb button is easy enough to use - at least once I figured out it doesn't ship with the button ready to go. You have to remove a rubber seal over it, then remove the actual button from the interior plastic holder and seat it in. Still, that took all of a few minutes, so it wasn't so bad. The mouse glides across my hard mousepad like a dream. It's light - perhaps even too light, indicating an issue with build quality. Still it feels good when using. Also, I like how the cable is a properly braided fabric with virtually no tension from being coiled up. It goes where you expect it to go, and the cable doesn't unexpectedly shuffle the mouse around from the tension you sometimes get from stiff cables. The Synapse software was a breeze to install. In fact, I didn't have to download a separate .exe from Razer's website; simply plugging in the mouse led to a prompt to install Synapse, and off it went. I like how configurable the installation is. Don't want the extra stuff? Cool, you can choose to install only the essentials. Once it is installed, it's easy to change button bindings or color configurations, and you can set 5 different profiles as well. I also like how you can set duplicates. For instance, I switched both of the DPI buttons under the wheel to Ctrl, then I set both mouse wheel left and right to middle click. The software took the duplicates without any warnings or extra prompts, and I was all set once I clicked the Save button. The only real criticism in the initial test drive is with the middle mouse click. At first I had to apply just a bit more pressure than normal for it to actuate, and I had to do it at the center of the button. I couldn't lightly press the button like I normally do, nor could I press the button from the end closest to my hand like I often do. However, this cleared up after a day or two of use, and now the middle button actuates as expected. Overall, it feels great to use, and the two issues I encountered were quickly resolved. I'll keep an eye out to see how long it lasts. If it fits my usual experience with Razer mice, it won't be a great loss since I picked it up on sale. Still, I'd love it if it lasted longer, because it's very fine to use right now.

Bought this mouse almost a month ago as a replacement for my old Razer Naga since the right click would glitch sometimes and I’ve been loving it ever since. I decided to buy it because of its weight (I prefer heavier mouses), buttons, and size. I’ve been satisfied with it and appreciate the extra button it has since it can be reconfigured or used as a “clutch” as Razer calls it which means that it changes your DPI to whatever you set it to. The clutch feature could be used to allow you to be more precise with your aim, however, I don’t ever see myself using it. But it is a nice feature to have. I like the feel of it in my hands. It feels sturdy and durable it doesn’t feel cheap even though it’s only made of plastic. The grip that it has on the right thumb also feels good and adds to its feel of quality. I also like that you can change the strength or resistance of the scroll wheel. While it won’t reduce the resistance to allow you to infinitely scroll like the G502 it will reduce it enough to allow you to scroll really easily. The grip that I had to use to grab on to this mouse is one of the things that felt a little weird to me at first. Coming from a Naga which doesn’t have as much thumb support but instead more finger support it took me about a week or two to adjust my grip to it but now it feels natural. One thing I wish this mouse had would be that I wish it had bigger DPI buttons. I reconfigured my DPI buttons so that they’re “M” and “L” I use these buttons while gaming and having smaller, shorter buttons make it easier to misclick. However, I am adapting to them as time goes on and the more I use them.

It's rare that I write any reviews but this is definitely mouse that is worth it. I think Razer did a really good job here. The ergonomics and comfort of the basilisk as always been a plus to me. It's a decent sized mouse but even with my hands not being big I still find it very comfortable. The rubberized grips on the side are a nice touch. And the scroll wheel adjustment/tilt features are nice to see here as well. Before this I was using the viper ultimate and the basilisk essential. While I found the essential to be and probably still is the most comfortable mouse I've ever used in my opinion I found the basilisk v2 to be a solid mouse. I prefer it much over the price of the viper ultimate. I feel for less money here you get a better feeling and better built mouse all around. I kept feeling like the viper ultimate was cheap and the clicks weren't that great. Here it's all solid. The PTFE feet are perfect for a smooth glide and razers focus plus 20,000 dpi optical sensor here is no joke. Some of the smoothest tracking you can get at this price point I feel. Over all I love this mouse a lot and it is my main mouse. If I had to give it one con/ and or downside it's that for me the sniper button (dpi paddle) is a tad to far forward for my thumbs to reach comfortably. I had this same issue on the basilisk essential. I do have smaller thumbs than average but I figured I'd mention it. Overall this mouse is a definite recommendation for anyone out there that wants to have a comfortable and killer gaming mouse.

First, holy smokes, Amazon delivers on Sunday? I received this in less than 24 hours.. Ok.. Now on to the important stuff.. Background - Razer Fanboy, kinda.. Old scroll wheel issues are my only main sticking point. Other than that, I'm coming from a Razer Naga Epic Chroma, that the Scroll wheel is just borked on. Out of the box - Typical EPIC feel when first opening a Razer product. This thing just LOOKS Vicious! First use - Can't say I'm too happy about a new program needing to be installed, now I have Razer Synapse AND Razer Central? Apparently I need both, because my 2016 Blackwidow Ultimate Stealth, won't work on the new program. ------- Ok, sorry /endrant -------- When I say Lightweight, you can barely tell you're moving this thing around your mousepad. I don't know its exact weight, but I can barely tell. Customizing - After the install of the new program, I went in and changed the Default Sensitivity settings.. (They originally bottom out at 800 dpi.. thats kinda low even for me) The customization options (11 Customizable buttons) and the Hypershift functionality, are absolutely FANTASTIC to use. User Friendly, and the DPI Shift key is great for FPS games when you need to really slow your reticle for a kill. RBG Functions are just what you'd expect, and MORE! You can sync everything so easily with the software. Overall - Honestly, for the price, I'm pretty darn happy. It's a Razer product, I expect the sleek design, the ease of use, the great features.. and This one DID NOT disappoint in any of those departments. I will miss my Naga Epic Chroma.. but this is a great replacement. 10/10 Would recommend

I had a Logitech mouse that was ok, but it felt like I was always dragging it on sandpaper. Very rough, so I traded up to a Razer Deathadder a few years later. It was ok, but it was just too small for my hands, and it broke after about four years of use. I then traded up to a Corsair M65. It was great except that it did not last a year playing COD, and apparently they are manufactured with low quality mechanical switches since it is a common issue that I found on the web. I picked up the Razer Basilisk V2 (wired) because I was very interested in the new optical switches that it uses. So far so good, I like how the wheel scroll resistance is adjustable and It has a paddle for the right thumb that allows users to make the mouse cursor move slow, which is great for FPS games. Very smooth motion on my mouse mat. Also, it's not small like the Deathadder I had, so it is very comfortable. Lastly, it has a few more buttons than the Deathadder that are customizable using the Synapse software. I bought it directly from Amazon because I didn't want to take my chances with either a knock-off or a used mouse re-sold as new. The reviews I read where a bit concerning, but I decided to take my chances. I'll update this review if it breaks prematurely, but I'm not worried since it comes with a two year warranty.

Had this for about 4 months now, and haven't had any issues. I switched from a Viper Mini to this and I'm happy with the switch: I'm somewhere between a medium and large men's hand size, and it's a nice size with my clunky, extremely amateur palm grip. Having a thumb rest is something that I had never really thought of, but now that I've experienced it, I can't go back: my pinky and tip of my ring finger still drag on my mousepad, but having my thumb seated comfortably on the mouse just feels so nice, and the slight tilt gives a more natural feeling to my hand positioning. The big draw for me was the sensitivity clutch: I've actually just ended it up programming it to be a third thumb button rather than its intended use, and it's been great. I don't need the 6, 8, or more buttons that some mice have, but 3 thumb buttons is great for the games I play. That being said, one of my friends with the same mouse uses and swears by it as a sensitivity button. The RGB is pretty much irrelevant to me, I don't really use it, but if you want it, it's mostly covered while using anyway: the Razer logo and wheel light up, but the logo is covered by your hand and the wheel will give a bit of a glow, but nothing significant. This is a slight difference where my previous mouse had a strip on the bottom rear of my mouse that lit up the mousepad when held, but this one doesn't.
