In games like Counter-Strike 2 and Apex Legends, the Basilisk Mobile feels accurate and reliable. HyperSpeed mode delivered consistent tracking and no input delay in our experience. The grip was comfortable during longer sessions, and the side buttons were easily accessible and responsive.
For MMO titles, the three thumb-side buttons offer more flexibility than a typical two-button setup, though they are not as extensive as the full 12-button grid on MMO mice. Still, they proved useful for assigning heals, item menus, and voice commands in testing.

In productivity and creative work, the tilt scroll wheel and thumb buttons became essential tools. They allowed quick switching between tabs, horizontal navigation through documents, and macro control in Adobe apps. The mouse remained stable during high-precision tasks, such as photo editing and scrubbing video timelines.
While not small enough to fit in a pocket, the mouse traveled easily in a backpack and paired quickly with multiple devices. Switching between a work laptop and personal tablet was seamless, and Bluetooth mode worked well.
