The best ergonomic wired mouse for FPS gamers
•RTX 3050 gaming laptop for $599•Discounted Game Pass subs•Keychron keyboard is still $27•1TB of storage for Xbox Series X•Don’t buy Switch, buy ROG Ally•My favorite game is super cheap•700hrs in this game is 3¢ an hour•Refurb Surface Pro 9 is just $639•Microsoft Audio Dock is 80% off
Hardly a brand-new mouse, especially since Razer makes more than I can count on my fingers these days, but since ourBasilisk V3 review, it remains a firm favorite due to its pure comfort paired with the 26,000 DPI Focus+ optical sensor.
It’s similar to the Logitech MX Master range for its comfort but geared entirely toward competitive gamers instead of office workers concerned with ergonomics. In particular, the Razer HyperScroll Tilt Wheel allows you to move it left and right and switch between three modes: Tactile Scrolling, Free-Spin, and Smart-Reel.
Tactile Scrolling gives you the most tactile feedback when rolling the wheel, which is ideal for weapon or skill switching. Free-Spin is your standard everyday smooth scrolling for web browsing. Smart Reel can be enabled through the Razer Synapse app, allowing users to automatically trigger Free-Spin with rapid wheel movement, slowing down returns to Tactile.
You can rapidly scroll through game dashboards, navigate long patch notes, and browse cosmetic stores without losing the tactile scrolling necessary for carefully selecting weapons in shooters likeCounter-Strike 2. It’sgorgeous. Don’t miss the chance to pick it up for almost half off!
