The Razer Basilisk V3 Pro 35K continues Razer's longstanding Basilisk lineup of gaming mice. It's a wireless mouse that can connect to two devices at a time using its included 2.4GHz HyperSpeed Dongle or via Bluetooth. It has a right-handed shape with a thumb rest and RGB lighting that's unchanged from the other mice in the lineup. Razer advertises an improved battery life over the previous generation Razer Basilisk V3 Pro with up to 140 hours using a Bluetooth connection or 210 hours using the 2.4Ghz receiver. It also sports Razer's new Focus Pro 35K sensor and is compatible with Razer's HyperPolling Dongle, which is sold separately for a polling rate of up to 8000Hz.

Our Verdict

0.0

The Razer Basilisk V3 Pro 35K is an excellent mouse for work. It has excellent build quality and its right-handed shape is comfortable and supportive, albeit the frontmost side button is hard to reach if you have small hands. You can program all of its buttons using the companion software, and its scroll wheel has L/R tilt controls and a configurable free-scrolling mode that engages automatically. You can also connect it with up to two devices simultaneously using Bluetooth and its included 2.4GHz USB receiver.

Pros

  • Comfortable right-handed shape.

  • Scroll wheel has L/R tilt inputs and a free-scrolling mode.

  • Multi-device pairing with Bluetooth and 2.4GHz USB support.

  • Superb raw performance.

Cons
  • Smaller hands may have difficulty reaching all side buttons comfortably.

  • Heavy.

    Differences Between Sizes And Variants

    The Razer Basilisk V3 Pro 35K is available in Black, White, Phantom White, and Phantom Green colorways. The Phantom variants feature a transparent body but are otherwise identical internally. We bought and tested the black model, and here is our unit's label.

    Popular Mouse Comparisons

    The Razer Basilisk V3 Pro 35K continues Razer's popular Basilisk lineup as the flagship model. Compared to the previous flagship, the Razer Basilisk V3 Pro, it boasts an updated sensor, the Focus Pro 35K, and an improved advertised battery life. Otherwise, it has an identical right-handed shape and virtually identical performance.

    This mouse exists within a niche of multi-genre or 'full-featured' gaming mice that boast comfortable right-handed shapes and more programmable buttons than most FPS gaming mice, though fewer than dedicated MMO mice. This makes them popular options as do-it-all mice that are suitable for work and play. The Basilisk V3 Pro 35K stacks up well compared to other mice in this segment. Its compatibility with Razer's HyperPolling Dongle (sold separately) for a boosted maximum polling rate of 8000Hz sets it apart from the competition, even if the performance gains are only marginal. The Logitech G502 X PLUS has two more side buttons, but it lacks the Bluetooth and multi-device pairing capabilities of the Razer. The GLORIOUS Model I 2 Wireless is a lighter option, but it has worse build quality, no free-scrolling mode, and significantly worse click latency. That said, the previous model, the Basilisk V3 Pro, is nearly identical and is widely available for less, making it a better value proposition.

    Razer Naga V2 Pro

    Track

    The Razer Basilisk V3 Pro 35K and the Razer Naga V2 Pro are different types of wireless gaming mice. Both mice are designed for multi-genre use, but the Naga is more popular as an MMO mouse thanks to having more side buttons. The Naga is also modular and comes with a 12-, 6-, and 2-button side panel, whereas the Basilisk only has 3 side buttons. They have different shapes as well. Both are right-handed, but the Basilisk has a thumb rest, and the Naga has a pinky rest.

    GLORIOUS Model I 2 Wireless

    Track

    The GLORIOUS Model I 2 Wireless and the Razer Basilisk V3 Pro 35K are wireless multi-genre gaming mice. The GLORIOUS is lighter, making it easier to aim quickly, but the Razer is better built, has a multi-function scroll wheel, and has better click latency. Overall, it's a better mouse if you don't mind the extra weight.
