I got a viper V3 hyperspeed for Christmas ( at my request) I used it for half an hour then went back to my wired Legion M500 I've now done some research (too late) and discovered I'm more of a palm grip guy I like the ergonomic shape with the thumb rest.

I do want to go wireless so I've been looking and I'm now torn between a G502 (either the original or X) or a Basilisk V3 Pro.

Most of the reviews seem to say the Basilisk is the better mouse although it's very expensive.

I just wanted to see if anyone here has any real world experience of the models mentioned and get recommendations?

Best prices I've found are
G502 £80 ISH
G502 X £100
G502 X plus (RGB version) £120
Basilisk £130 ( or £110 for white but I prefer black)

It's difficult because the OG 502 should be the clear value winner here but then the newer model is only £20 more and then the same again and before you know it you've spent another £50.

I'm not a heavy user as I'm away from home 20+ weeks of the year and get maybe 10-15 hours a week to play when I'm home.

Thanks

I've ordered a Basilisk V3 Pro but think I've got buyers remorse already as the sniper button is said to be in the way for people with big hands I'm 6'6" so fit into that category.
 
I've been a staunch wired user for a long time, but the Logitech G G502 X PLUS LIGHTSPEED won me over.

Quite possibly the best mouse I've ever used.

I've never got on with Razer peripherals, always ended up returning them.

Gone from wired to wireless and will not go back it's the perfect mouse for me.
 
If on the fence with the Razer there's also this side by side I came across:


I would suggest reading through properly rather than just looking at the base score, some of the detractions are things you might never care about. Such as the included charging cable length/quality, or bluetooth support over dongle use etc.
