Razer Basilisk is not really an upgrade from a DeathAdder Elite (if you already own it), that is because it is equipped with the same Razer 5G Optical Sensor that offers the highest accuracy on a Razer Gaming Mouse at this point.However, it offers a diffe...
The Basilisk's biggest issue is that, regardless of how Razer's positioning, it's a direct competitor for the DeathAdder a.k.a. one of the most popular mice in the world. And while the clutch is definitely a smart take on the Sniper button, it's not enoug...

The Basilisk makes a bold claim for itself, but it's one that Razer has gone to great lengths to justify. Thankfully, it hasn't just thrown features at the mouse without thought, and the more unique elements like customisable scroll wheel resistance and t...
Sensitivity clutch, Customisable scroll wheel resistance, Impressive software support
Little expensive, High variance in optical sensor frame rate
The only appealing and functional feature for FPS gamers on the Razer Basilisk would be the sensitivity clutch or the sniper button. It's a removable clutch available in two different sizes, so that one can lower their sensitivity when needed. An addition...
