Razer - Basilisk Ultimate

I use a fingertip grip, although the example in the photo is a bit exaggerated. I used to use a palm grip until it got too uncomfortable and my grip style changed over time.

I usually look for mice that don't have too many side buttons. I never click them, and I never accidentally click them, but I only find the DPI buttons necessary sometimes, and that's fine. My Naga was better suited for MMOs, but I ended up stopping using it due to my busy day-to-day workload. So I started using the Mamba more. Its size is perfect for anything, and I find it very comfortable. I've used the Basilisk a few times with the Deathadder v2. The only drawback with the V2 was the DPI buttons on the right-click and the fact that both are battery-operated.

My razer basilisk got that problem a year after I purchased it. Never another razer product in my life I swear

As I said I wouldn't choose that one either, I'd rather choose the basilisk to be honest. It's also depend by how many buttons you need and whether you might also want to consider a dual device setup. For instance if you need it for something like WoW whilst I appreciate it's a matter of preference, I don't a mouse with a lot of buttons is the right answer.

Corsair's 502 is the M65, Razer's is the Basilisk. Though, I don't think any of them are particularly big mice, the 502 is just really really heavy because of the metal scroll wheel and freescroll, and the side support for the big ass sniper button.

My basilisk has been doing great for two years now

I had the Razer Basilisk but after a while found it too big and heavy (I have rather small hands). Went with the Razer Deathadder v3 Hyperspeed (70€ on sale) and I'm perfectly happy with it

G502 and Basilisk are almost identical in size. This dude's hands are just massive. I have "big" hands and the basilisk was the best sized mouse I could find

Windows can only recognize two side buttons natively and they're always called Mouse4 and Mouse5. Other buttons have to be assigned to a keyboard button, otherwise they won't be recognized. Look for MMO-mice if you want really many buttons. Otherwise Logitech G502, Razer Basilisk and Glorious Model i2 are options to consider.

i had a raza naga and basilisk. I also tried a g203 and razer viper, both of which were too small for my hands.

I prefer the basilisk to those mmo mice. I can't get used to so many buttons that feel the same all in one place. The basilisk gives me plenty of buttons while feeling unique so I don't accidentally press the wrong one. I also use shift and ctrl as modifiers to give myself extra buttons as well.

It's one of the three most common grip styles. People who use a palm grip just move their whole hand across their mousepad if they use a lower DPI. https://preview.redd.it/n3sox6v4kgff1.png?width=1500&format=png&auto=webp&s=c80ca80c73e45362be8d21360d74e338ad02a671

My hands are about the same size. I used to have a basilisk and it always felt small and annoying. Now I use a G502 Lightspeed. It's still a little small, but the little tab that supports your thumb makes it easy to control the mouse without having to pinch your grip. Imo it's very comfortable.

I've used the Basilisk before... dude, your hands are freaking massive!

Razer Basilisk here... fits my hand (YMMV) I like the weight, it's responsive enough for WoWs and wireless is helpful TBF.

I like my basilisk but I hate razor software and there's no hardware default for the rgb so I'm stuck with the awful rainbow effect

I had a Razer Basilisk and it ate my batteries like crazy (Maybe it was faulty but i didn't wanna bother with it anymore). I would like to have a good mouse that charges with USB C and isn't too bad in terms of input latency and tracking. Are there any options that are worth the money? I hope its okay to ask these questions here because i have no damn idea about the mouse space lol :D

If there is one mouse that would replace the G502 for me it's the Razer basilisk. A very good option in my opinion.

It really depends on OP's grip style. That's called a palm grip in the second photo, and it's a very common grip style.

I loved my Death Adder but let me tell you, I love my Basilisk even more. Time for an upgrade big guy.

Odd, I had my razer mouse since I was gaming on my mom's apple laptop in 2014 lol, it just now gave out beginning of this year, with the mouse click not working. Haven't opened it up but it might still be an easy fix. Bought a razer basilisk last Black Friday anyway just in case, and it handles like a dream

I've had a razor basilisk for about 5 years and it's sound but I've never had a mouse break tbh

Yes! The RGB on the Razer basilisk is second to none.

Realistically speaking other than the Razer Basilisk and the SteelSeries Aerox 9 there isn't much else out there I believe.

I would go with either a DeathAdder or a Basilisk if you use a palm grip (the way you're gripping your mouse in the second photo).

Because I prefer a mouse like the Basilisk and I'd rather not rely on my thumb for so many things.

bought 2 last year, deathadder and basilisk, first just died after 4 months, second free spin doesn't work anymore, should've stayed with logitech, g403 still works fine after 7 years , g502 too, they just look bad with the rubber worn off

Depends on your preferences. I have small hands and just bought a Razer Basilisk. It's one of the biggest "gaming mice" but still small relative to a typical hand.
