Razer has delivered an impressive option with the Basilisk Ultimate. It’s fast, lightweight, and offers the best wireless connectivity I’ve ever seen. It also looks great, which counts for something in the age of RGB gaming setups. Still, the advantages don't outweigh the exceptionally high cost and odd grip angle. If cost isn’t a concern or you’re already in the Razer ecosystem, there’s a lot to love here, but for everyone else, the cost of entry may just be too high.
