Playseat Evolution Unboxing Review

Unboxing the Playseat Evolution that Playseat sent me to upgrade from my Playseat Challenge. We've been using them on The Straight Pipes for a bit now and we've been have a really great time. Feels very sturdy and looks cool. Also folds up surprisingly well!

[@AutoPilotgogogo]

Came here from a search of Playseat reviews. Near the end of the video it finally hit me-“Hey! It’s Yuri from The Straight Pipes!”

[@Dyltheboy]

Hahaha I had a similar thing happen. Early in the video when I first heard his voice I knew it sounded familiar and I look at the channel and it is YURI.

[@cismay1270]

The quality of the seats material looks amazing

[@F1george48]

I just ordered one and just thought my friend here might help me so thanks for the helpful video

[@zakiaelamri5145]

man you save my life it's been 3 hours since i look for a playseat compatible with the t150

[@bozz1954]

Great vid man. Love the head cam, lets us see exactly what you're doing.

[@casvian1215]

I've got the same playseat evolution seat with a logitech g920 and shifter. A sweet deal I got from kijiji. Had it for almost a year now, love playing forza horizon 4 and forza motorsport. Definitely the next upgrade should be steering wheel, pedals and a shifter. Stay safe and take care.

[@kraftrobert4326]

I am currently saving for this a g29 and vr headset

[@eth4no255]

I have a chair like your red one for my desk and it gets very uncomfortable with the flat back, what do you think?

[@simtherapy9533]

Yuri You have a second channel!!! Dude I watch every straight pipes video! We need to see you washing your prowler!!😉 Have a nice one buddy!

[@10vingers]

And how do you like it since you have used it for a longer time? I'm have the same steering wheel and still use it attached to my desk.

[@REfanforlife]

where do you source ur background music i always love straightpipes background and this one as well!

[@YuriTereshyn]

KZbin audio library

[@rccosplay3249]

Nice seat I'm thinking of getting onw for flight simulator. there are attachments for throttles and joystick called the gear attachment but one does not have to install gear shift one could put anything like a throttle quadrant or flight joystick. Looks sturdy and fun can't wait to get mine set up💖

[@YuriTereshyn]

Oooo I wanna try flying sim so badly

[@revirdkcalb]

How about any wobbles and flex of this Playseat? Did you feel any, and if you did are they annoying to the point you're considering something else?

[@taejinkae]

can I ask why you didn’t get the revolution seat? I got an old evolution and it seems like the revolution steering wheel mount is better being closer the the seat. I always felt like the evolution wheel mount is in the way of my legs...

[@YuriTereshyn]

Keven Brousseau I dunno. I saw more of these on the site so I assumed they were more popular. The pole hasn’t gotten in the way of my feet at all. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@taejinkae]

Yuri Tereshyn well to be fair I am 5'3'' with tiny legs😂 and just pressing the brake pedal with my right foot the pole get in the way, but I am glad you don’t have this issue it is a very good racing seat!

[@TumpoV12]

where do I put the gear shifter

[@daryno4267]

Hey Yuri, do you still have your playseat challenge? If so, and you're no longer using it, can I buy it off you? I'm in Ontario if that makes shipping any easier

[@mrhades6420]

Can't wait to see you stream

[@Willi1623]

Where do you mount the H-shifter?

[@aliqureshi6534]

How much did it cost with taxes and where did you buy it from. Thanks

[@matthewlewis7865]

is the Playseat Evolution Alcantara different from the playseat Evolution? if so, what is the differences the Alcantara offers?

[@tihilovac]

I have question, you had challenger also, is evolution better or not ?

[@gregwootton]

Is it difficult to use brake and clutch with the center post?

[@YuriTereshyn]

Dunno

[@jackkirk1793]

Does any steering wheel work on it

[@jamesrichardson5094]

Does this seat come with a mount for the shifter? Please reply as I’m considering buying

[@billychadd9922]

It’s sold separately

[@Dyltheboy]

$60. You can check playseatstore.com if you want to see the info 😁

[@mohammedbilal3492]

Thank you so much

[@jasmint1547]

Ricmotech sells a hard mount kit for the thrustmaster t150/tmx wheel, you should get that so you can get rid of the clamp.

[@YuriTereshyn]

Already onto a tgt and bigger playseat

[@schwantzrossi1266]

thanks for that info jasmin - i didnt know this, you helped me out!!!!

[@ZealousWZephyr]

What kind of steering wheel and pedal do you have? And what does the whole set-up cost? Every time I’m walking past them at the store I always stop and stare for an unhealthy (for my wallet) amount of time 😅

[@YuriTereshyn]

T150. It’s cheap. I wanna upgrade that next.

[@francesthemutes]

@@YuriTereshyn The T150 isn't too bad. It is cheap but honestly not horrible. It's the pedals that are truly bad. If you can find a cheap set of T3PA pedals, you'll be set. Or you can grab a full T300RS-GT set of you can find it. Amazon hasn't been stocking it much.

[@nielsheyse68]

is the playseat evolution compatible with hori apex racing wheel?

[@Dyltheboy]

Don’t be lazy, go to the playseatstore.com and check. 😉

[@sametbilgen1]

Is the playseat mat included or did you buy it seperately? Thanks!

[@YuriTereshyn]

It came in the this box

[@revirdkcalb]

@@YuriTereshyn Really? I think you got a gift, or you bought a special edition or something

[@SkippyOnMeBalls]

I bought normal one and I got it too Edited: Black colour

[@Dyltheboy]

It is indeed extra for 60$

[@79ta8]

Would fanatec equipment fit this rig?

[@YuriTereshyn]

Ya all this stuffs pretty universal

[@RevRideReason]

Is this seat noisy when you move or press the brake pedal ?

[@YuriTereshyn]

Not that I remember

[@RevRideReason]

@@YuriTereshyn 😁👍

[@praveen4143]

"I've been using it for about a week now..." - My guess is you watch a little bit of MKBHD? Lol

[@YuriTereshyn]

Praveen Premchandran no. Is that a usual thing he says?

Ah lol well. I guess I shouldn’t say that

[@pumpuppthevolume]

@@YuriTereshyn would u get one at some point.... or wait for someone to sponsor u.... the newer displays r much better than the first gen rift and vive

[@vinegarman4205]

Will it be compatible for thrustmaster t300

[@Dyltheboy]

Simply, yes

[@brockeyb4118]

Is there anyway to count the shifter

[@Dyltheboy]

Well, you could put them together and just count. Just start at 1, then if for some reason you have a second, then you go to 2, then 3, and etc.

[@brockeyb4118]

Sorry I meant mount

[@Dyltheboy]

@@brockeyb4118 hahaha, makes more sense. You have to buy the $60 mount.

How comfortable is this compared to the playseat challange ?

[@YuriTereshyn]

Way comfier

[@sergiudamean3272]

@@YuriTereshyn Weird, everyone says the challenge is comfier than the evolution. I have the evolution and after 30 min my back hurts; i am thinking of selling it and getting the chellenge. What do u think since you have them both ?

[@claytonsmith8357]

I will take your old one!

[@franzthompson6661]

Did you get that off of amazon ?

[@YuriTereshyn]

Franz Thompson playseat sent it to me directly but I got the challenge a few years ago from Kijiji

[@franzthompson6661]

Nice ya I’m looking into getting one not gonna lie gt sport would be way better with one I’m sure

[@franzthompson6661]

Lol but if you still have your old one I’ll gladly take it off your hands for a fair price of course just kidding take care stay safe

[@YuriTereshyn]

Franz Thompson gonna hand never down the challenge to someone once I get a new wheel and pedals, prob force my bro into it

[@franzthompson6661]

Ya I figured I think I remember you mentioning that in one of your streams I’ll just have to shop around for one

[@iainr6218]

There doesn't seem to be a spot for a shifter eh

What's the price?

Sup Yuri 😇

[@CallMeAK]

YURI!!!????

[@samzilla1050]

This seat was good like 7 years ago, now it's really not a good seat. That center bar gets annoying real quick for serious sim racing

[@YuriTereshyn]

I’m playing Gt sport so for me (not a serious sim racer) it’s perfect

[@verveblack]

what seat do you use?

[@Dyltheboy]

Hahahahahahahahaha, you are pathetic

[@okkeboonstra4587]

Really bad seat: Pole between ur legs is annoying, not as ridged as you want and the metal plate for the paddles is really weak if you brake with a lot of force you feel it flexing a lot. For a little bit more money you can buy the GT Omega ART or PRO cockpits that are much better.

[@Pablostorys]

Just buy a thrustmaster g29

Yuri play animal crossing with me
