Our Verdict
Razer Basilisk X Hyperspeed
Dell Alienware AW310M
The Razer Basilisk X Hyperspeed is a somewhat better wireless gaming mouse than the Dell Alienware AW310M. The Razer has a right-handed shape and connects wirelessly either with Bluetooth or with its USB receiver. Its feet glide more smoothly, and you can assign a HyperShift button to enable a secondary layer of commands. Performance-wise, it has a wider CPI range, a CPI you can adjust more precisely, and lower click latency. On the other hand, the Dell has an ambidextrous shape with a thumb and pinky rest. It connects wirelessly with a USB receiver only. It also has a single RGB lighting zone, while the Razer has no lighting.
