Best mouse for work and play

I have an unique request: I need a mouse that can handle 8-10 hours of work with tons of spreadsheets and Dev Code, and at the same time, handle 2-3 hours of play any game that I want. And it also must handle Bluetooth, so I can switch from my work laptop (using Bluetooth) to my gamer laptop (using the 2.4 GHz dongle) with ease.
This is, by far, the best (and possibly the only one) mouse that can handle this. I don't want to buy two mouses, one for work and one for gaming, I want something that can handle both with no compromises, and this is it.
First things first, I'm not a competitive player and I don't care about weight I believe Shape > Features > Weight is the way to go. So, this might not be the best out there for FPS competitive shooters.
That said, its scroll wheel and on-board memory allows me to create productivity macros to handle my job, and when I'm done, I have a really good sensor, shape and other macros that handle my playing style. And all of that without using Synapse (you still have to install to create the macros but you can uninstall once you load that to the memory).
And to that 2 years of warranty and you have a solid product.
I've been using this mouse since release day, and I'm using it 13+ hours a day, only had to charge once. Its an amazing product, it should be cheaper but it is definitely a better "bang for your buck" than anything else right now.
Upgraded from Basilisk Ultimate…and it’s worth it!

I got this on sale a few weeks ago for about $30 off. I wasn’t sure I’d keep it but the weight distribution and overall comfort sold me. Extremely accurate and you have the ability to poll at 4k (which I’m using, but I don’t notice a difference between that and 1k polling). For me, the best feature is it has bluetooth. I’ve been trying to find a mouse I can use in all situations, as well as being comfortable, have a long battery life, accurate sensor, and strong connection. The Basilisk Ultimate had it all except the bluetooth, which is a home run fir me. Plus, as a bonus, the switches are the perfect clickiness, and it has RGB.

I really, REALLY love this mouse.
It's both comfortable and versatile.
The mouse offers numerous connection options: 2.4ghz, Bluetooth, and wired.
I haven't noticed any lag when using the mouse wirelessly. The mouse's cord is braided and quite nice. The mouse has a small, circular hatch on the bottom for storing the 2.4ghz dongle when it's not in use.
The Razer software offers quite a few options for LED light effects and button customization. I found it to be quite intuitive, but it's a little annoying that you have to log into your Razer account when using it.
The mouse is rechargeable, so you never have to worry about swapping out batteries.
The mouse is very comfortable in the hand, but it's obviously designed for right-handed use. Left-handed gamers probably won't appreciate this mouse as much. The side buttons are a good size and are very easy to reach. The scroll wheel is smooth with just the right amount of resistance.
Gaming with this mouse is an absolute joy.
I strongly recommend this mouse for any gamer.

I went into purchasing this product blindly since I needed a new mouse. I saw Razer was a great product so I took a shot in the dark and I must say this a great product for any gamer. It’s wireless but you can also plug it in and use it as a wired mouse as well. Fits comfortably in my hand and glides smoothly.

This mouse is great, very comfortable for palm grip users as well as those with larger hands. All buttons a nice and clicky and the infinite scroll is very nice to have. Battery life is great about 90 ish hours with low Rgb brightness. USB c charging is great as well. Fully charged in a out an hour from dead. Well worth the price.

I own a lot of Razer products and I’m impressed with all of them. The Basilisk Pro is phenomenal. Zero lag when gaming Bluetooth, and when I play so long I kill the battery, I plug in the included very flexible USB C cable and it picks right up and I continue to game while it charges. I love this mouse.

As the title states, this is a pricey gaming mouse and it is more expensive than competitor offerings. You're paying more because it's Razer and they are a premium brand.
I chose this mouse because I prefer the ergo design and this one has a great feel. As a PC gamer that is an immersive enthusiast, I don't game competitively or care about how light a mouse is (I actually prefer a bit of weight). I also prefer a wireless setup and Razer's Hyperspeed wireless is great on my Blackshark headset as much as it is on this mouse.
The reason I was OK with paying extra for this Razer mouse is because I already have a Razer Tartarus gaming keypad as well as a Razer soundbar, so I already use Razer's chroma software, and I like the way my mouse, keypad and sound bar have the RGB synced up. I didn't want to bother figuring out how to get different peripheral manufacturer's components to sync (if possible) and I have always been happy with every previous Razer product I've used over the years.
You can save money by mismatching things in your PC gaming setup, and I'm sure there are mice out there with higher DPI or whatever, but this mouse is more than enough for a non-pro, immersive gamer that doesn't compete seriously. I'm happy with my Basilisk V3 Pro, even though it doesn't come with a wireless charging dock.

Loved my Logitech G604 until I started replaying Borderlands 2 on extreme 3080Ti resolution. I could not be a sniper when I aimed left then right then …. DPI upgrade needed
Well, I love not only the ability to snipe with deadly accuracy, but also the fit in my hand, the responsiveness of clicks, the feel of the scroll wheel. I could care less about backlighting on a mouse but it does work.
I may have become a Razer fan. Bets wireless DPI I saw for Logitech was 25000. This is 30000 “Oh, you know that hurt!”

Up until now I've primarily used wired gaming mice. I've had some connectivity issues with wireless mice before so I never really thought much about them. However, this mouse garnered some interest seeing that it's made from one of the leading manufacturers in computer peripherals as well as, most importantly, has RGB! As such, I figured I'd give this a shot and see how it compared.
My previous mouse was a Corsair M65 Ultra. Great mouse, wired, had some RGB on it and, overall, a great mouse. However, the cables were irritating as are any cables for that matter. I found myself constantly having to reposition my hand/mouse due to the cable getting in the way. I know there is a wireless version of that mouse however, I don;t have that one so not getting the same mouse in a wireless version. I've never had a Razer before so this would be a great chance to try out their products comparatively.
Right out of the box, I immediately liked the feel of the mouse. I'm a flat hand mouse user, not a claw user, and the ergonomics of this mouse just felt great. The rubberized sides of the mouse offered a great grip without being too grippy or rubbery in texture. The Left/Right buttons also have a little bit of texture to them so there's some grip there, again, without being too pronounced. Great tactile feel to those buttons. Button placement was good, except for the precision button. So as far as overall fit, this was a nice update.
Next big thing for me was the RGB, obviously. This one had more RGB than the Corsair and just looked better IMO. There's a ring (almost a ring) on the bottom which provides ample RGB-ness as well as the scroll wheel and logo light up nicely. The software allows you multiple RGB patterns as any software would do. The ability to increase brightness really makes the RGB pop.
The adjustable DPI on the top allows quick changing of this setting as well as the smooth/click wheel setting. I found it odd that whenever you change the scroll wheel setting, the mouse clicks. Never had one do this before so I found this a bit odd.
Biggest enhancement for me was this is wireless. I can finally forgo the cumbersome mouse cable and have better range of motion with the mouse. It being wireless, I've not experienced any sort of lag or delays when gaming so this is a great bonus as well.
The only thing I didn't like about this mouse was the placement of the precision button below the Back/Forward buttons. On my Corsair M65, it was right below the Forward button where it should be. On this mouse, it's a bit more forward so I have to kinda reach that button in order to hit it. Not ideal placement for me but maybe others will state otherwise.
]Overall, I'm really digging this mouse. Checks off all the boxes for me as far as a gaming mouse and it looks real cool as well.

Super comfortable. Super easy to change DPI on the fly. Holds a charge for a long time if you're running it wirelessly.
Only gets a 4 star because as with every razer product they don't tend to last.

As the title says, this is more or less a gaming version of the very popular MX Master 3S from Logitech. This is slightly smaller, and lighter and I appreciate how much more responsive it is as a productivity mouse. I work a lot on MS365, web applications and proprietary software throughout the day and this does a great job. To me, all that RGB crap is unnecessary and I don't care for it.
After hours, I play COD, WarZone and Paladins and it helps a lot with aiming. Yes it's not like the super light counterparts but honestly as a casual gamer, the weight difference doesn't really matter to me. Battery life works great. It actually shutsdown/sleeps when not in use, unlike the Razer keyboards that I have.
The price is definitely on the high side, but if you can count this as an "office expense" then it's a very good productivity and gaming mouse overall.

I absolutely love this mouse!! It’s what every gamer needs. It’s easy to use and I love the RGB. This is a heavier mouse (which I love) and the scroll wheel can be adjusted!

Been using the razor basilisk for about 4-5 years, I did use other bands like logictech but I just love the grib on the basilisk also with the 3 extra key binds on the mouse helps a lot, the app you download to change the RBG and key binds is easy to navigate, the battery life is also pretty good I would probably say i charge it like every 2-3 weeks i honestly don't have anything bad to say about the razor basilisk (side note this is a repurchase so the timestamp for the purchase would be this year but been a long time user)
good mouse, would be perfect if it was lightweight

better texture than the wired basilisk v3. solid build quality. 116 grams which is a rather heavy mouse, but as long as you’re not already used to a super light (50-low 80 grams), then it shouldn’t be too much of a problem. it’s 10 grams heavier than the wired version but i’m already used to it. the shape is amazing for someone with large hands like myself. i can’t get a comfortable grip on any of the normal lightweight (often ambidextrous) mice. if you also have the same issue, this mouse is one of the only mice i’ve found that i can full palm and my fingers aren’t hanging off the edge of the top of the mouse. the thumb rest is great and has a nice rubber grip. the mouse isn’t for everybody, as some people will not be able to get past the weight. but for someone who’s already used to a similar weight, and has large hands, or someone who wants a quality mouse for not just gaming, i don’t know a better option for a mouse. other mice put a lot of strain on my hands, but this ergonomic form works perfect for me. i’ve heard great things about the g502 but it’s not for me. i don’t like Logitech's reputation for quality control, and i’ve seen too many logitech reviews of devices breaking or wearing down way earlier than they should for the price. additionally razer uses much higher quality materials (especially the side buttons). the optical switches help it last longer too. not a razer fanboy, actually wanted to switch to the pro x superlight but it just was not for me. i could not get past the slipperiness and cheap plastic feel of the texture. and the side button shape, placement, and quality, were terrible compared to what im used to on the basilisk. the light weight was nice, but was not enough to make me switch due to the other factors mentiones. if razer finds some way to dramatically decrease the weight while keeping the same quality product (like taking out the rgb or Qi charging dock compatibility), this mouse would be perfect. if you’re looking for the same shape but is lighter, the g502 is 78g and i believe the model I (glorious) is somewhere in that lightweight range as well. but although razer has their own negatives like price, unnecessary rgb, weight (for this mouse, they have lightweight ones too) and razer synapse software, all the other positives drive me to select this mouse over other brands with similar shapes.

This mouse is extremely fun to use. Highly recommend it. It's light fits beautifully on the hand The wheel on top of the mouse it's just right I would say wait for it to go on sale.

This mouse is such a great and comfortable mouse to use. The colors in here are bright and are customizable. The feel of this mouse is a soft texture that is sweat and water resistant. The UI of the mouse is also fun to toggle around with. And the charger of this is a masisve upgrade to the previous mouse I had. Razer is overlooked because of its prices, but quality is still outatanding regardless. The battery is strong enough to last several days, even with the RGB lights on. I extremely recommend this to anyone who is looking for a gaming mouse or even a mouse in general.

This is the only product I sincerely like from Razer. It is very easy to use and very fun to use, especially while gaming, can't say anything bad about it at all. I currently use it with Macbook and it works like a charm, just like a regular mouse due to it also having a bluetooth connection. Even without Synapse, I am still enjoying it as a daily driver. Best gaming mouse.

It was time for me to replace my Logitech G604 and though I loved that mouse, I could not find a comparable one from the same brand, so after doing research I found that the Razer Basilisk v3 Pro is the closest one with some of the same features I want that were on the G604 plus added features! This is a great mouse for both productivity and gaming. The fact that I no longer need to replace the batteries like my previous one is a big plus. I haven't used it long enough to test out how long I could use the Basilisk on a single charge until I have to recharge it, but I'm sure it'll be a while. The RGB lighting is awesome too and nice that it's customizable. It carries a hefty price tag, but this will be the only mouse you'll need.

In the box, you do get a USBC to A cable and wireless receiver, which is nice. My first impressions of the feel are good, solid built, and clicks are nice (and not too loud).
You can utilize this mouse in wired mode (with the included wire), wirelessly with the dongle, or wirelessly with Bluetooth. I tested all three and had zero issues with them. There is onboard memory where you can store up to 5 profiles if you so choose. I normally stick to one but know many of my friend that utilize more than one and this feature would benefit them quite a bit. These profiles can also store your RGB configurations as well, which is a solid option in my option. As always, you can use Synapse to customize your RGB coloring, and there are TONS of different options within this software. You will find one (or more) that suit you.
In my testing of the mouse, it glides flawlessly across my mouse pad, and I have no issues with shoulder pain after long gaming sessions. I know there were complaints about the 2.4gz connection, but in my playthroughs, I had zero issues with connectivity.
Overall, I have had a blast using this mouse from Razer. You cannot beat the level of customization Razer offers with Synapse and the 5 onboard profiles makes this mouse just that much better. This is a definite must for gamers.
