Our Verdict

Razer Basilisk V3

Logitech G502 X

The Razer Basilisk V3 and the Logitech G502 X are wired multi-genre gaming mice that perform similarly well. They do have a few differences. Notably, the Razer has a higher-quality cable, and its feet offer a slightly better gliding experience. The Razer also has RGB lighting. On the other hand, the Logitech is significantly lighter.
