I need to stop buying mice
Yes I have that many. All purchased new once upon a time.
This review though, is for the Razer Basilisk v2 [wired]. Of all things, let me start saying that I have experienced many, many mice. This is, in comparison to my all time favorite, the G403, is the most comfortable so far that I can live with. I have played long periods of time with it and no pain, no wrist issue. As with Razer, you can download an app to modify your mouse shiny innards. The thing I like the most is the thumb rest. Oh gosh yes, I can finally firmly grip my mouse to accurately aim/shoot/click, etc. The wheel has two buttons, left/right and there's a resistance knob underneath of the mouse to change the scrolling...uh...resistance. My hands measure 7" from wrist to tip of middle finger; I don't know if that's big or small. Ok, I went to Razer, did their little measuring test and according to them, I am well-endowed. So there's that. Proceeding.
So anyways, you can set various profiles and you can go as high as 20k DPI which makes me vomit and have seizures so I turned it down to a more human-eyes level.
The only downside, if any, is that you have to create an account with Razer if this is your first mouse. Other than that, it's very nice mouse, comfortable, well built, shiny, and expensive. If you're ok with all that, buy it, you should not deprive yourself of such comfort.
