Head-to-head
Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 vs Razer Basilisk V3 Pro
Same $159, opposite design philosophies — and the right pick is entirely about what you do with a mouse. The Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 is subtraction as a strategy: 60 grams, no extra buttons, no holes, just a flawless sensor and low-latency wireless built for one thing — competitive aim. Lift it and the lightness is the whole point. The Razer Basilisk V3 Pro is the opposite bet: heavier, but with 11 programmable buttons, a smart tilt scroll wheel that free-spins or ratchets, an ergonomic right-hand shape, and enough versatility to run spreadsheets by day and games by night. One is a precision instrument; the other is a Swiss Army knife. Here's how to choose.
![]() Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 | ![]() Razer Basilisk V3 Pro | |
|---|---|---|
| Score | 9.2 | 9.1 |
| Price | $159 | $159 |
| Verdict | The competitive default. About 60 grams with no holes in the shell, Logitech's flagship HERO 2 sensor, and hybrid switches that resist the double-click rot mechanical ones get. It's pricey and bare, no RGB or Bluetooth, but for pure aim and weight nothing here beats it. | The loaded one. Where featherweight mice strip features away, the Basilisk piles them on: 11 buttons, a free-spin tilt wheel, and a flagship sensor. At ~112g it's no flick-aim mouse and the best tricks cost extra, but for a do-everything mouse it's the pick. |
| Best for | Competitive FPS and esports players who want a 60-gram mouse with flawless low-latency wireless and a simple shape that suits most grips. | Gamers who want lots of programmable controls, a comfortable right-handed shape with a thumb rest, and a versatile tilt scroll wheel for games and work alike. |
| Avoid if | You mainly do office work — you'd pay a gaming premium for speed you won't notice, and there are no extra productivity buttons. | You want the lightest possible mouse for twitchy aim — it's a heavier, feature-loaded design. |

Final verdict

If your game is twitch aim, go Superlight; if you want buttons, scrolling, and do-everything versatility, go Basilisk.
