Released two years after the original Razer Basilisk V3 Pro (which we gave full marks in our 2022 review), the new 35K model promises a faster sensor, boosted battery life, and a wider range of sensor customization options. The jump from 30K to 35K may be negligible for most players, though, and the original model's battery life was already pretty solid. This is a mid-life refresh for the chunkier Razer rodent, but whether it will be worth buying over the older (and therefore cheaper) previous generation isn't quite so clear cut.
Both mice launched at a hefty $159.99 MSRP - about as expensive as the best gaming mouse models get. However, in its extra two years on the shelves, the Basilisk V3 Pro has dropped as low as $95 and is generally found for around $110 day to day. Considering there's a $50 premium on the Razer Basilisk V3 Pro 35K model, you'll need to really want that extra speed to proceed.
