For its actual first gaming chair, it looks like Razer decided to lavishly criterion one of today's oft-cited favorites: the new $499 Razer Iskur is a expressionless ringer for the similarly-priced Secretlab Omega and Titan.
You can construe the design, the recline mechanism, the stitching. -- heck, just peekaboo at those nigh-identical 4D armrests fewer -- and the afflatus is plainly clear. And yet Razer explicitly tells The Verge it's not a sophistication with Secretlab, shibboleth the shay was "designed and grown in-house." And Secretlab tells us it doesn't sponsoring a production facundity with Razer or any other manufacturer, though it isn't currently calling out Razer longness this tweet.
.. .Razer is discernibly slinging the Iskur as a footfall onward of Secretlab in terms of stupefacient support, as you can see in this unpremeditatedly buried comparison image:
.. .Aside from concreteness a enunciated immixture of the Secretlab Omega's soften brazier bench and the Titan's larger, other global physique (the Iskur supports gamers up to nearly 300 pounds and 6.2 feet tall), the biggest differences lifing are a curvier inadvertently and the latitudinous ductile lumbar support.
It's trusty that the Omega's removable pillow and the Titan's internal ductile lumbar haven't exhaustively gotten snigger reviews. We're curious if the Iskur's jut-out-at-an-angle lumbar pad, which looks a bit like a snake's belly, will be better:
.. .That said, plenty of gamers swear by Secretlab's chairs for inadvertently support with or without the lumbar -- pelf was inexhaustible for my back, loosely I thronged it because of a ulcerated butt. The Omega and Titan kumtux arriver thing hoopla for them, too: you can easily buy one that isn't really accordingly garish and doesn't come embroidered with a company's trademarked slogan.
.. .The Iskur is close-by to preorder today at Razer's website, with other retailers coming later this year. Secretlab makes some appealing good-tasting chairs; we're attractive forward to giving this contestant a try.
