Key information
The Razer Basilisk V4 Pro, launching October 8, 2026, targets gamers seeking a feature-packed experience rather than the stripped-down design of ultralight mice. Weighing 100g, the device prioritizes comfort and utility over the minimal weight trend, providing a robust toolset for everyday users.
The mouse features 14 programmable buttons built on Gen-4 optical switches, rated for a 100-million-click lifecycle. A standout addition is the Razer HyperScroll Tilt Wheel Gen-2, which offers four modes, including a "Smart-Reel" function that automatically switches between tactile and free-spin scrolling based on input force.
Performance is driven by the Focus Pro 50K Optical Sensor Gen-3, delivering 50K DPI and 930 IPS. While the reviewer praised the sensor's accuracy and the "Perfect 180" feature, they noted that the default AI Prompt Master button is prone to accidental triggers, recommending users remap it via Razer Synapse software.
Connectivity options include wired USB-C, Bluetooth for up to three devices, and 8000 Hz wireless. Battery life reaches approximately 200 hours at 1000Hz polling, or 50+ hours at 8K. Priced at $169.99, the mouse integrates with the Razer Mouse Dock V2 Pro and HyperFlux V2 pad for enhanced charging and connectivity.
