Razer Basilisk Ultimate Review
I'm a big fan of Razer's Basilisk mouse line. This family of right-handed gaming mice, designed in the first-person-shooter (FPS) style, is known for having a button where the tip of your thumb rests. It's one of the most comfortable fits in PC gaming. When Razer made a cheaper model, the Basilisk Essential, I sung its praises, too, for bringing the form factor to a larger audience. Now, for the power-gamer set, Razer has made a $169.99-MSRP wireless version, the Basilisk Ultimate, that updates the Basilisk design inside and out, cuts its cord, and adds wireless charging through an optional dock. In other words, one of the best gaming mice just got a bunch better.
Don't Mean a Thing If It Ain't Got That Wing
The Basilisk Ultimate's core look and feel remain mostly unchanged from the original. It's technically an 11-button, right-handed model, though it has only nine customizable buttons.

The Razer Basilisk Ultimate is a killer, all-purpose wireless gaming mouse for serious PC gamers driven to pull out all the stops.
Great hand fit and feel, with solid thumb support; Nifty charging dock; Wheel-tilt inputs; Strong new sensor; Wireless operation without noticeable input lag
Pricey; DPI paddle could be a little short for your hand
