The New Razer Basilisk Mouse

Looking for a top-notch gaming mouse developed specifically for FPS dominance? Well, if you are, Razer seems to be one step ahead of you with their new Basilisk gaming mouse bred for that exact purpose. The new product also looks to sport a fresh idea which will hopefully not be too gimmicky.

Like most Razer products, photos of the Basilisk give us an idea of its premium materials along with an appealing look. Revealed specifications show off their powerful 16,000 dpi sensor which is also used for the Deathadder Elite and Lancehead TE along with a lifespan of 50 million clicks for their mechanical mouse switches. Apart from the array of programmable buttons, there’s the “clutch” positioned at the tip of the thumb. This “clutch” has the interchangeable function of DPI toggling, push-to-talk, item pick-up or anything else really. It isn’t forced upon consumers as a cap is available, but it would be interesting to experiment with the feature.  Another neat inclusion is the ability to use a dial to switch up the resistance in the scroll wheel.

"The customizability of the Razer Basilisk sets it apart from other FPS mice, and is something that we're incredibly proud of. This is a mouse designed for tweaking that last ounce of performance out of each gamer's specific FPS playstyle." - Razer co-founder Min-Liang Tan.

For the price of around €65, converted from their $70, the Basilisk seems to be a great opportunity for FPS gamers which is purchasable here: https://www.razerzone.com/gaming-mice/razer-basilisk and at the chosen retailers.

Of course, this package comes decorated with Razer Chroma lighting.
