What Happens When Razer Makes a Gaming Chair? | Razer Iskur Review

Announced at RazerCon earlier this week the new Razer Iskur is Razer's first entry into the gaming chair market. The Iskur features an innovative adjustable lumbar support system that is much better than the SecretLab Titan and LFGaming Stealth but what about the rest of the chair?

[@orrikolaxus]

@Brainbean which do you think is better between Secret Lab and Razer?

[@Brainbean]

@@orrikolaxus probably still SL. They’ve been in the chair game a lot longer and provide a really high quality product. Razer chair isn’t bad but SL just has more options. I like the soft chairs over leather personally.

Thank you, your was very well detailed & to the point. P.s. for those interested, Amazon has 1 more chair in stock currently. I bought mine when they had 3 left.

I really want this chair. Razer did such an amazing rob, designing a really well built gaming chair, that didn't follow the same boring shape and feel of every other gaming chair.

[@brandonbreuer6589]

Obviously the chair does look like the Secretlab Omega/Titan chairs, but with the huge caveat that the lumbar support on this chair appears to substantially set it apart from Secretlab's offerings.

[@Brainbean]

Yeah it's really interesting. Definitely some similarities.

[@Hacki4893]

in my country, you can now buy the razer in sale for 280€ (normally around 350 to 420€), while the secretlabs titan evo 2022 costs around 500 to 600€. I took the iskur as a fabric option an love it!

[@thejokers10]

Soon boys! Razer Chroma Toaster, I feel it coming. Imagine, somebody using the toaster and you have chroma set to sync with games while you're gaming. Immersion.

[@skyheights3834]

i was looking forward for the full elbow arm rest but its just the generic arm rest

[@CEEEEEEEEENA]

the lumbar support has my interest , gonna get one , especially if thats a perfect ergonomic design , rather than any other cheap chairs

[@robertaguilar3279]

Thank you for your videos and thank you for this one in particular because the angle at which you can recline is a personal selling point. This video made it clear to go for the other option.

[@WiltedRaven2]

[@KG-64]

I hope they will launch a Razer Iskur chroma soon 😉

[@t.5350]

must wait for that and then buy 🤷

[@rebx5891]

One thing to advise - Razer support has very little information on this chair including key details on their own return policy, which technically uses their generic Razer Store policy. They seem unable to clarify what 'original condition' means as it relates to the likely slight damage when removing the cylinder for disassembly (which their own instructions say requires lubricant, mallets, and a pipe-wrench). So just be aware... They also don't know the functions of the huge knob under the mechanism, or provide any recommended uses or basics on it. So in other words - purchase with caution since you're on your own with Razer on this new product.

[@PhilipChou]

Great review, I appreciate the detail

[@echooooooooooooooooo]

No rgb? This is a bit out of Razers character

[@tatert0tter347]

Benimaru shinmon chill man 😂 I was just saying that no rgb is a little bit out of razers character cuz thats what they’re products are usually bought for. Cuz 500 dollars is a lot of money for a chair. And u go karen bitch mode on me 😂

[@Besotted85]

The wings on top of the chair don´t support ergodynamic support, they push your shoulder out of an unatural position, which is not good.

[@aadityarudra2926]

[@AntwanMounir]

Great review man! You're very underrated

[@samjackson1895]

Here in Canada, the Secret Lab Omega cost me around $530. The Razer Iskur is $650! I choked when I saw it was more expensive than mine, but it looks like the quality is there for the price.

[@InfamyOrDeath-__-]

I much prefer my Omega over this.

[@AI-xi4jk]

What is that desk on the background? Looks really nice.

[@d_m1nhh]

Is really that gaming seat worth it? I know maybe this is not the best place to ask but I still wondering

[@Brainbean]

I would prioritize upgrading your set up. If you don't have your PC or monitor etc where you want it it's hard to justify dropping $500 on a chair. I think some of them like this chair included can be worth it. It's a similar concept to a good mattress if you spend 8+ hours in it a day it's worth the investment. I think though they also kind of became a status symbol of sorts for streamers and the like.

[@CaliWaliDoDaDay]

What do larger/taller gamers say about this chair? I am 6'4 with my shoes on and 220/225 pounds and most chairs I have to buy are of course Big & Tall which often are $200 max and pretty much to wide for me and armrest are a stretch. One this I think that ads to discomfort is how far the seat supports the back of my legs. Thanks for the thorough review which brought me most of my questions answered less how far the seat adjust to support my long legs. Super Thanks

[@InfamyOrDeath-__-]

Just get a Secret Labs Titan XL, I have the Joker Omega & I absolutely love it.

[@michaelgordon6679]

Mine will be shipped out on the 3rd of Jan

[@Besotted85]

My opinion it´s a better chair comparing all the gaming chairs i have tried, but not the price worth when you can get alot better office chairs for better pricing.

[@durnham]

Does the back rest have the tiniest bit of give when you sit back into it, or lean forward? not sure if its supposed to do it, or mine is broken? would love someone else to check theirs! Thanks

[@jjg42090]

Looks like a secretlabs chair. Even down to how it comes packaged and the oversized instruction card

[@Brainbean]

oh yeah, There's a ton of similarities which makes the statements from both companies kind of interesting. We'll see how this develops.

[@InfamyOrDeath-__-]

More than likely they just copied the guys who do it best, there’s too much differences between them, the only thing that’s the same is the armrests, the base it totally different.

[@jamesfarrell1587]

[@Ryn0_333]

@Brainbean do you think I should sell my Steelcase Leap V2 for the Iskur. At first when I heard Razer chair I was thinking it would be ridiculous but after seeing it, I think it might be perfect for me. I hate racing style chairs but they did well here as far as aesthetics and from what I can see ergonomics.

[@Brainbean]

I would hold off for a little. I'm working on the biggest chair round up for the year looking at early Nov release where I am going to be comparing pretty much all the big players on the space. I don't have them all in yet so I can't make a for sure recommendation.

[@Ryn0_333]

[@captainofthewhitetower]

MAN the place you sit is too small.

[@kamikaze00007]

My number one concern for chairs is durability and load capacity. Can it take a bulky heavy guy without quickly breaking over time? My brother avoids these kinds of chairs because they can't endure his weight for years of usage before losing a wheel or the adjustable height pillar losing to the weight pressed on it during daily use.

Yet they keep saying they own one and make unpleasant comments about the brand and just be a hater of a brand they cannot afford. You can be in that category.
