Razer has just launched the new Basilisk V3 wired gaming mouse, which puts a lot of emphasis on reinventing the wheel – quite literally. 

This iteration now comes with a new scroll wheel that can be used in three different modes – Scroll Mode for high-precision scrolling when cycling through weapons or skills, Free-Spin Scrolling Mode which lets the wheel scroll faster with less tactile feedback, and Smart-Reel Mode which automatically switches between the two depending on the application you’re on.

The Basilisk V3 is equipped with the Razer Focus+ 26K DPI optical sensor that allows for more precise use in-game and out. When it comes to the mouse clicks, the device comes with Razer Optical Mouse Switches Gen-2 which allows for crisp clicks that have an actuation speed of 0.2ms.
