The Basilisk is back with the new V3 Pro wireless version - completely maxxed out stats, the return of the dock, 4k polling - basically everything Razer can pack into one mouse. But the price tag is packing too.

🚨IMPORTANT CORRECTION🚨 Hi, I'm a dumb idiot and you can definitely set your scroll wheel options on and off in Synapse and then still use those options without Synapse. You DO NOT have to run Synapse full time to get the scroll functionality. In my testing, its when the mouse loses connection with the host computer that these do not function. As long as you are connected, Synapse or not, they work fine. Sorry for the bad info.
I love you for saying to "be happy with what you have", not alot of people remember that, enamoured with everything new and shiny, and with you being a tech reviewer, in which "new is always better" it takes balls of steel to say that. Much love Brian, Respect.
Im still happy with my old rusty G502 which have been with me since 2014, yes 8 years and still going strong.
THIS and Dmitry from Hardware Canucks recommending to "Spend responsibly" is what tech reviewers need to do more often IMO. Respect to both cause they care about us and the environment.
I think your barometer for what constitutes “balls of steel” is pretty low haha
I used to not be as conscious about price because I’m in a unique position where I don’t have to be. Well, that’s changed. Why? Well, I find myself getting a new mouse every year. Whether they just get too worn in to clean or look crisp, or there is just something I’m not super happy about, I keep going. My favorite tech was the Razer where you don’t have to charge it but the mousepad that continuously charged got worn in and started messing up the vibe of my setup. My second favorite and one I use now, which brings me to why I’ve become more price conscious… it’s the model O. However, I’m shopping a bit because I can’t stand that I constantly accidentally right click and would like a few more features on my mouse like side scrolling or continuous. But, to drop $200 on tech Razer is just going to forget about next year? I’m hesitant. Why aren’t they going with the continuous charge anymore? Why aren’t these new mouses at least compatible? It’s frustrating we keep getting a new gimmick that sounds good in practice, but then will be out with the bath water along with shiny paddles come next year. And to pay top top top dollar… these peripherals are starting to feel like gotcha games just without the novelty or even that of mechanical keyboard / keycap collecting.
@@angelaguilar4121 What does the environment have to do with anything? Lol. Most of this stuff is made with reused materials or if it’s not, they’re trading off their carbon emissions with companies that are well under their threshold. Even frigin China pledged to be carbon neutral by 2060. Stop reading Twitter.
Great review! I own the normal wired Basilisk v3 and it has such a good cable that I feel like a wireless version isn't too much of a step up.
I can't lie, I do get a little excited when I see a new 'bad seed tech' video has been dropped. The shots are so clean and aesthetic and your voice is so relaxing/soothing. Thank you for being my favourite tech channel on yt, spoiling us with Ur vids 🥰🥰🥰
Tysm!
couldnt have said it better myself
The meat riding is crazy
@@badseedtech Been vibing with you since you were under 10k on my main account. No lie.
Really enjoying how you do reviews, keep up the great work.
Always great to hear your take on these things man!
Feature packed mouse...feature packed review. As always, the most straight up, impartial info dump you will find anywhere. My go - to for anything tech.
upgrading from a g502 hero to this. for like 1.5-2 years, ive been dealing with my mouse double clicking both with m1 and m2 to the point that i could hold my finger down on it and move it around without releasing the input, and it would look like i have a macro clicking for me. also had a problem where mmb wouldnt click down anymore but worked perfectly otherwise, so i moved mmb to the far, low button on the side where your thumb goes (sniper button?), and i had to get one with that same button because i genuinely fell in love with using mmb there lol. im hoping this will do me wonders and most of all last a long time
Amazing content. Great videos Brian!
Something I love about your mouse reviews is the fact that our hands are basically the same size. Thank you for making reviews.
Sweet.. I was looking at getting the V3, but didn't want a wired mouse!
love this! I use a Basilisk X Hyperspeed for my setup but I bought a Baskilisk V3 wired for work cuz my work mouse was causing wrist issues. Now that I'm working from home I let my wife have it and she absolutely loves it!
Your video production and quality is just awe-inspiring!
Thank you so much! 🙏🏼
Awesome review Big Bearded Lord. I always liked this as my g502 alternative.
On board memory on the basilisk v3 does not support RGB patterns. You need Synapse running to activate RGB patterns. Else it will be set to a default pattern.
Great video man. Enjoy watching your vids.😁
I love the basilisk shape and I’m rocking the V2 with my laptop when I travel. If my viper ultimate ever does out I would pick this up but hopefully it will drop some in price.
So it I don't need to run thier software in the back ground I will short list them for my new wireless mouse. Still rocking a few G502's but they are getting tired. 😀Can you turn of the RGB and it stays off? Great review, thanks for all the pro's and con's, keep it up!
The issue wasnt people thought they had to have the synapse drivers, it was the fact synapse kept auto installing itself through firmware in their mice. And this happened when there was a security vulnerability in their software enabling root access for bad actors.
And auto-install is pretty annoying in general. Combine that with Synapse services constantly running in the background even if the app is not running/start up disabled. Auto-installing center + synapse + God knows what else + 100mb ram usage in services - BRUH! Just give a break and something simple and intuitive like Logitech Onboard Memory Manager ffs, not a bloatware.
Love your review. I have one question. If I use puck and charge my mouse to full... Can I remove puck and use mouse without it ? (so I can make mouse less weight) ?
I just got one because my old basilisk died on me. I'm absolutely loving the feel of the buttons and the tweaked shape. I find the tracking on it more accurate too
I may look into the Basilisk Ultimate now that it's discounted. Weight usually isn't that important to me when I'm gaming. This looks like something that I would definitely like as well.
the basilisk ultimate my favourite mouse has everything perfect for all type of games FPS,moba,path of exile plenty of buttons to change into specific game buttons love it
Brian you're SPOILING us, with the twofer
8:05 Okay Brian, I'm picking up what you're putting down. The Naga (which I don't care for) is up next for the refresh - which means that after that, finally, FINALLY - we'll get the Viper Mini in wireless.
I was quite sceptical about the puck and the dock, not sure it can work with Logitech Pro X gaming mouse as they are pretty much the same puck?
I’m in the fence on this or the deathadder v3 since the release. Currently using deathadder hyperx v2 and gpro superlight.
been rocking my basilisk v2 pro since they announce it at our local store, solid one, nad does not feel heavy af, but cant wait to try this one
Does the dock work with iphones magsafe? Since both use magnets, does it help with the alignment or just doesn't allow aligning it properly? Also, if it works with the iphone, the mouse should also align with magsafe chargers.
would you be doing a deathadder v3 pro vs this? Which is more ergo? and comfy overtime to use?
I'm still rocking my Basilisk Ultimate, but for FPS games, it's just too heavy. So the way I'm doing now is I use my basiliisk for everything, but when I want to play FPS, I just dock it and switch to my Xlite V2.
another banger of a vid man, today was a little tough for me but you dropping two vids really made it up for it >:D
Hate to hear it but I could help in some little way. Its tough out there sometimes, but keep pushing. That’s exactly what I mean when I tell people to stay up. 🤜🏼🤛🏼
I personally never needed my mouse to be light. This form factor is great and so happy it's now wireless with updated tech!!! Cop
I tried using a heavy mouse recently, but it's just plain annoying to me to be whipping around a brick while gaming after experiencing sub 70 gram mice.
@@bonanzabrandon6877 i like 502 with full on weight when im reading notes or doing schoolwork. But when im gaming, the light wireless mouse is the best
my maximum would be 85g, any heavier, i cant flick fast enough.
Your video was a godsend. I had bought & returned 3 Razer mice due to Synapse not working, thinking it was compatibility problems. After watching your video I tried what you suggested and logged in as guest and voila, the software worked. My Synapse profile must be corrupted, as logging into Synapse only w/ my profile breaks the Macro module which works fine without an account logged in. Not a ringing endorsement for Razer account management services but thank you for allowing me to use macros.
I have the Basilisk V2 Pro and for the price of the V3 it's not worth the upgrade. However, after getting the Basilisk V2 Pro not even two years ago, I realized that it was better than any other mouse I had ever tried after 15 years of gaming on PC.
Kinda refreshing to see a non-ultralight, featured-packed mouse. Not gonna be for everyone, but this will definitely be a huge cop for a lot of people. I also love that scroll wheel freescroll/tactile mode on the fly.
I have the basilisk V3 wired for about a week and I've had issues with the smart scroll....sometimes when the wheel unlocks for free scrolling...it never locks again...no more tactile scrolling...I have to unplug the mouse to fix it...I think it's a software issue
Is there any info on dock qi power, like 5 / 10 / 15 watt? Can't find it on razer store. I'd swap my current qi charger for this dock, but if it's under 15 watt, then I'll just get a mouse with puck and use my old charger for mouse and phone.
will you do a video on the logitech g502x line up? :)
I just got the G502 lightspeed and this is giving me some serious second thoughts. And I've never really been a fan of razer.
I have a pair of Basilisk Ultimate's so I can use them for work and gaming with zero downtime on the battery charging. I have a drawer FULL of different gaming mice from the last 10 years, and I finally settled on the Basilisk Ultimate as my endgame mouse. The shape is awesome, the button placement is great and the sidescroll for me is an absolute must for gaming.
Agreed picked up the ultimate the other day when I saw it for half off and there is literally no need for another mouse imo.
Do you know if the Basilisk V3 Pro + Mouse Dock Pro comes with the Wireless Charging Puck? It wasn’t clear on the website. Thanks
What is the keyboard shown in the background? thanks
I'm in love with the Razer clicks. I wish GPX came with something similar. Would love to see all clicks are optical.
Alot of respect for Brian putting out multiple videos saying just because all this new tech is cool. Doesn't mean I gotta blow my whole paycheck just to fit in. Keep up the honest man videos! Really appreciate it!!
Would really love to see a new Naga. As long as the interchangable side plates are kept. Maybe they'll add a third finger button?
I have not been impressed with any of the keyboards I have had over the years and the print on the keys eventually smudges off. So when I saw the Mechanical Keyboards I really like them and looking at the Deathstalker and the Basilisk Mouse. I may also moving to get a new Headset, but to be able to use the wireless under one Wireless USB Key is a nice feature. I really do like the Razer brand from anything I have ever seen.
All I want is like, a razer or hero sensor in the body ergo shape of something like the MX master 3S.
I nabbed an ultimate a month ago for like $80 with doc and i couldn’t be happier. The scroll wheel on my glorious model o died after 6 months but I honestly never loved the shape.
does RGB profiles saved on the onboard memory as well even if Razer synapse does not auto-start with windows?
Wow.. Went from wired G502 to Basilisk x Hyperspeed. G502 lightspeed without usb C was no go, that Logi mouse pad didnt clicked with me. Looks like this is the mouse I was waiting for!
BadSeed - If you have some free time, could you test out the DAv3 onboard memory? When I set up just a couple of dpi steps on my mouse and then close synapse, the mouse will revert back to the default 5 dpi steps. Let me know if you have this issue. I think Razer might be misleading the onboard memory claim on the DAv3.
Seems like a really sweet mouse but I'll stick with the wired Basilisk V3 that I have, no sense in spending over $150 to get the V3 Pro. You're totally right about the cost of things over the past few months, but inflation in the US is totally F-ing up basically everything so nothing new at the end of the day.
I have it too. Very good mouse. I own like 6 mice and this one is one of my most favorite.
V3 pro is for people who obsessed with wireless stuffs
Will u review the new Roccat Kone XP Air? Would be very interesting
pretty big improvements over current basilisk ultimate
May I ask what your favorite boards were at the CannonKeys meetup? I saw your shirt, I’m so sad I couldn’t make it. Hope you had fun!
So whos better basilisk v3 pro or deathadder v3 pro?
I currently have an Orochi V2, i installed synapse to configure the mouse sensitivity and the side buttons, and after I uninstalled it, Razer keeps begging me to reinstall synapse, its super annoying and the one thing I really don't like about Razers Mice, I hope they keep the Qi wireless charging support and bring it it to something like a Viper body because I really like having a place to put a wireless product to charge overnight after im done using it, but I also want a lighter mouse, but who knows I used a G502 before my Orochi so it wouldnt be too much of a hassle going back to that shape.
I can't find the charging times anywhere, did you happen to test that?
Do I need to have the software installed to prevent the rainbow PUKE and just set the color to an elegant white? Or will the mouse remember that without the software?
The smart scroll wheel has been my new fidget spinner at my desk. 😂 Hopefully it last forever because spinning the wheel and waiting for the clutch to catch, the spinning it again is incredibly satisfying. 😅
can you try the fantech aria xd7?
This is hands down the best mouse. I got 2 now. The shape is key. Also the way you thumb has somewhere to wrest vs other mice you thumb drags on the mouse pad. Ultralight mice aren't a thing for me. As a bigger dude I need something hefty in my hand I can toss around!
been looking for a new mouse and this is an insta cop for me. trying to unclutter my setup and the wireless mouse will help
I used to not be as conscious about price because I’m in a unique position where I don’t have to be. Well, that’s changed. Why? Well, I find myself getting a new mouse every year.

I haven't used a g502 in 3 years and I still reflexively flick the scroll wheel when browsing or working expecting it to spin. I'm glad this feature is being considered on new mice even if this one doesn't particularly fit my needs.
g502x coming soon
Hey sir, I would like to know if you can review TV sync light? It can sync lights with the image on TV. I sent an email to you but didn't get a reply.
You can use 4k polling wired if you just plug in a normal charger that isn't plugged into your PC
I would've gotten Basilisk v3 Pro if not for the lack of DPI buttons on the left main button. Those are a life saver for me in MMOs and MOBAs.
I love the g502 and since I'm a razer fanboy I'm really happy they released this mouse, 100% gonna buy it!
My razer Basilisk V3 only works on a magazine cover and not on my mouse pad or table. Is it a lemon?
I bought the OG Razor Viper Ultimate wireless when it first came out. As of today it has died a sad death and I'm using an 8 year old chunky mmo mouse that I hate. This is on the list of possible buys for now.
I know it's planned to be released this Fall, but everytime I see about Razer new mice releases I get excited about the Viper Mini Wireless...
I REALLY wish they would add this hyperscroll feature from the basilisk v3 onto their naga pro 🙏
Hello guys, am confused a little bit i am using deathadder elite wired mouse and really looking to get new razer staff those days but honestly speaking i have three choices DA V2 pro, DA V3 pro or basilisk v3 pro , but my main concern is the weight my current mice is 100g comparing between new versions DA V3 = 64 g and basilisk v3 pro = 112 my main gaming is league , dota , csgo and pubg and advice from professionals here, appreciate in advance
Dope. The new dock being able to handle different lighting modes is awesome. The old mouse dock just never matched unless I did something super basic. Hoping with the puck that they might try a new powered mouse mat with something like the power play the 4k polling and lighting wouldn’t matter. This is my go to mouse for sure.
I hope they make a basilisk with the side index finger buttons like the g502, I need those
Hmm, was hoping for a weight in the 90~gram area but not too far off. Also can we acknowledge the awesome gameplay of Brian just ending people's characters left and right while making it look like he is just warming up in AimLab or something
wish corsair or logitech would come out with some comparable stuff I've been using razer products for years but I hate the aesthetic. I am still going to buy this.
It would be awesome to see you do science with the Logitech g502xplus and razors new docking station… the only thing holding me back from buying the new Logitech mouse is that there is no docking station for it so I’m curious to not only see if it would work.. but a review from you on the Logitech g503xplus
8:10 sooo what your saying is watch out for the Naga V2 pro coming very soon? Ive put together the hints around the web on this and hope to see this before quarter 4 still.. am i warm? Even the grouped product pages photos on the razer site are showing a different naga in half the photos but the trained eye hasent seen this yet.
And we here both new naga released today
Still hoping and wishing for a razer viper mini wireless/pro 🙏
I would love like a basilisk light with the same shape just none of the rgb and extra options to bring the weight down
Currently have the wired v3 and might upgrade. Love the mouse but not a fan of the software, If only they cleaned it up a bit, feels like bloatwate. Also the razer logo is mid. I prefer no logo clean.
I need a mouse that's like the viper, but with that third thumb button on the side
I've had numerous issues with Synapse where it crashed my system once or twice and it actually reset all my profiles and settings once. Had to create an account just in case it happens again, but I guess I'm an extreme case.
I’ll be honest, I struggle to see the work that has gone into making this video, but only because I can’t stop staring at that magnificent beard. One day I’ll tear my eyes away and be wow’d by the production value :)
the biggest issue i have with flagship stuff right now is mostly the like inconsistent upgrades with stuff i guess? certain mice come with extra upgrades that recently updated mice dont when it would be an awesome feature. New viper and deathadder? well only this one gets to use new charging dock tech. other companies do it too, (LOOKING AT YOU SUPERLIGHT AND UR NON USB C HAVING ASS), its like.... i get that they are working on this tech and release products when they are still really good. But to me it will always feel like we are chasing what could be the best of the best every single time because the next release will have an upgrade that the others literally just months or weeks before dont.
Ive wanted an updated Basalisk ultimate. Hope that later this year good sales come on for the dock bundle. Don't need it per say but I've worn through the rubber on the Ultimate I have now so would be nice to get a fresh mouse but not for $200
You can get the Ultimate with dock for $80-99 now, which is probly the lowest it will go.
@@jamesw657 went with the new g502 instead, appreciate the heads up tho
why the hell did they made thumb button unremoveable i can't comprehend. that was the only reason i bought the basilisk ultimate and v2 over g502 in the first place. well, onto g502x then.
How much does it weigh with and without puck?
I just got this mouse.And i am so hply besides being a dupiclate from the razer ultimate with more featersi love the rgb. But the 2 that makes me hapoy the most is the sniper button. you cant take it off and i am so happy if i drop or move my mouse with the ultimate i risk the chance of losing it for a replacmeant its 12 ucks on ebay. and i love the bluetooth mode . just in case you lose your usb yoy can use the bluetooth or you dont wanna touch the usb but need the mouse for another device. its a 11/10 for me.
I scooped up the viper ultimate some years ago and I've grown to absolutely HATE IT.... this looks nice though! thank god it's USB type C!
I love the "auto clutch" wheel on my MX Master 3. I can't use a mouse without it now.
U should review the devil one lootscifer keyboard theyre sorta a new company (german) and theyre rly high quality
Wait, there is smart reel on wired Basilisk V3 (so it's not new) and it can be saved to memory and used without the software. Tactile / free spin modes also can be changed with press of a button on the mouse. Did any of this change on wireless model?
“New” in that its not one of modes available on the G502 - sentence was phrased weird. My copy has no functionality for smart reel without Synapse active and you cannot toggle scroll modes without synapse either
@@badseedtech oh then it's really sad that they limited wheel functionality without Synapse in wireless version.
@@nikitosoleil Hi, I had to scroll to find this comment again - I am mistaken. You are 100% right. There was something weird with my testing setup. It 100% still functions correctly without synapse.
So this or the G502?
dam razer dropping hella products august such a great month for mice releases razer should end the month with viper mini wireless
which call of duty is being shown at around 7:10?
fire shirt dawg!
