Our Verdict

Razer Basilisk X Hyperspeed

Logitech G703 LIGHTSPEED with HERO Sensor

The Logitech G703 LIGHTSPEED with HERO Sensor is a better gaming mouse than the Razer Basilisk X Hyperspeed. The Logitech is a bit smaller and lighter, and it's well-suited for a palm grip. It has a wider CPI range, less CPI variation, and a lower lift-off distance. It's also possible to use it wired or wirelessly, while the Razer is a wireless-only mouse. The Razer supports Bluetooth and uses AA batteries instead of being rechargeable, which some people may prefer. It also has a thumb rest, and its shape fits more hand sizes and grip types.
