The G305 suits fast flick aiming because it is wireless and light. The Basilisk V3 gives you more side buttons and a tilt wheel, which help with macros and weapon swaps but add weight.

The Basilisk V3's optical switches are rated for 70 million clicks, well above the G305's mechanical switches. The G305's battery is replaceable, so its lifespan depends on how you treat the shell.

Is the Basilisk V3 worth the extra over the G305?

Only if you need the 11 buttons, the HyperScroll wheel and RGB. If you mainly want wireless and light weight, the G305 covers that at $41.99 at Best Buy as of November 7, 2026.

Does the G305 work on Mac?

Yes, it works as a basic mouse on macOS through the USB receiver. Logitech's G HUB software for remapping buttons and DPI is Windows and macOS only.

Can I use the Basilisk V3 without software?

Yes, it works as a plug-and-play mouse. Button remapping, DPI stages and RGB need Razer Synapse, and onboard memory stores up to five profiles.

Which is better for small hands?

The G305 is smaller and lighter, so it suits smaller hands and claw or fingertip grips. The Basilisk V3 is a larger right-handed ergonomic shape built for palm grip.
