Black Friday 2023 – The Razer Basilisk V3 “5-star” mouse at €47.99

Razer’s Basilisk V2 won us over in 2020 and here comes V3! A version that changes little, but which brings some small welcome improvements to forge a mouse gaming even higher.

Why change a winning team? With this V3, Razer is not revolutionizing its Basilisk, but is improving the formula a little further with more advanced and successful RGB customization. Above all, the new free and “intelligent” scroll wheel proves very practical on a daily basis and the mouse is even more versatile. It can thus tackle not only the gaming pure, but also for office automation. A flawless solution for users who want a mouse with good grip, a sophisticated design and great precision. For greater lightness, however, you will have to turn to another model.

Strong points

• Excellent optical sensor.
• Comfortable grip.
• Neat finishes.
• New, very practical dial.
• Extensive RGB customization.
• Very flexible cable that can be forgotten.

Weak points

• Sniper button a bit short.

Alternatively

The SteelSeries Prime+ is a mouse clearly designed for gaming. Its exemplary handling, the responsiveness and longevity of its optical switches, as well as its dual sensor make it an ally of choice for competitive multiplayer, even if it doesn’t is not as light as some competitors. Its strength is also a weakness: it is in fact not really versatile and can hardly be used in office automation, the fault of a wheel which is certainly effective, but ultra-basic. If its Oled screen is interesting on paper, in practice its usefulness is very limited, especially since it causes an additional cost compared to the Prime model without screen.
