The Razer Basilisk Ultimate wireless optical gaming mouse with charging dock is currently down to $149.99 at Best Buy. That's a $20 discount off its regular price and one of the only sales we've ever seen on this version of the Basilisk lineup. Except for where the mouse has been price-matched, it's still going for $170 at most retailers including places like Sears and Focus Camera.
Our review of the Basilisk Ultimate gave it 4 stars out of 5 and a Recommended badge. Richard Devine said its "undoubtedly worthy of its spot atop Razer's gaming mouse pyramid" and added that compared to other Razer mice, "the Basilisk is more ergonomic, which makes it better to use in daily computing life as well as in gaming."
The Basilisk Ultimate is well-equipped to handle everything from casual computer use to intense gaming. Despite being wireless, it uses Razer's HyperSpeed technology that reduces latency. You won't even notice it's wireless with how fast the response time is. You'll also be able to seamlessly switch frequencies when you're hit with a particularly bad environment for wireless noise.
The 20,000 DPI is fully adjustable thanks to the Razer Focus+ optical sensor. Every tiny movement of your mouse is tracked. You'll get unprecedented precision and accuracy that you can fine-tune to your needs whether you need to flick your wrist for a trigger-happy shooter or slow down to make sure you're getting every command just right.
It's also a very programmable mouse. Personalize it to your exact specifications. All 11 buttons can be re-programmed, and you can include macros with advanced commands. The multi-function paddle lets you execute multiple moves quickly. You can even adjust the resistance on the scroll wheel.
The mouse is compatible with both Windows and Mac. The battery life lasts for up to 70 hours, and thanks to the charging dock you should never really have to worry about it dying at the wrong time.
