The SecretLabs Titan Evo 2022’s build quality, adjustability, and comfort make it a perfect pick for extended gaming sessions. However, its easy-to-offset headrest pillow may annoy some.

Product Snapshot

Overview

Announced in 2022, the SecretLabs Titan Evo 2022 is a high-end gaming chair available in three different sizes, with its largest offering more expansive seating space and a 395-pound capacity. The chair offers in-built lumbar support, but its not as advanced as what top-ranking office chairs or even the best gaming chairs offer. Still, it shines with 4-way adjustable armrests and a 165° recline angle.

The chair also has a leveled, pebble-seat design, and buyers can choose between a more durable NEO hybrid material, a Softweave Plus fabric, or the more premium NAPA leather option for the seat covering. However, if you don’t mind the traditional PU leather, our BestOffice Ergonomic High Back office chair review might interest you.

Consensus

our Verdict

The SecretLabs Titan Evo 2022 lives up to the hype, offering impeccable comfort and all-around adjustability. Its seat height and 4-way armrests are easy to configure, and its lumbar support is both height and depth adjustable. The same applies to its tilt and tilt tension, and since the chair is easy to assemble, putting it together shouldn’t take more than 30 minutes.

Build quality is undeniable given its 395-pound weight capacity (XL variant), and the chair’s sports wings help individuals maintain an upright position during extended gaming sessions. Beneath its surface cover, the chair’s cold-cure memory foam molds to the owner’s body, and if need be, owners can also opt for armrest padding for added comfort.

ReasonS to Buy

  • Impressive ergonomics and adjustability
    • The Titan Evo 2022 excels in gaming. It offers wide-spread adjustability options for precise customization.

    • Owners can configure aspects such as its armrests (2.5” range), seat height (3.3” range), lumbar support, and also recline its backrest up to 165°.

  • Adjustable lumbar support
    • The Titan Evo 2022 offers elaborate back support with height and depth adjustments.

  • Excellent build quality
    • All the parts on the Titan Evo 2022 feel premium, and its frame is solid enough to support users weighing up to 395 pounds (XL variant)

Reason to Avoid

  • Included magnetic pillow is easy to offset
    • The Titan Evo 2022 ships with a magnetically attached headrest pillow that is very easily offset.

    The SecretLabls Titan Evo 2022 has slightly better back support than the Noblechairs HERO Gaming Chair, as its lumbar support system includes both height and depth adjustments, while the HERO gaming chair only allows for depth adjustments. Also worth noting is that the Titan Evo 2022 has a 165° reclining angle, which is much deeper than the 135° reclining angle that the HERO gaming chair is capable of. Here’s our Noblechairs HERO Gaming Chair review if you’d like to see what else it can do.

    The largest version of the SecretLabs Titan Evo 2022 gaming chair supports a weight capacity of up to 395 lbs, which is a lot higher than the weight capacity of the GTPlayer GT800, rated at 300 lbs. The armrests on the Titan Evo are also 4-way adjustable, while those on the GT800 are fixed, and while the Titan Evo can recline up to 165 degrees, the GT800 can only recline up to 135 degrees. If the latter still sounds like it’d be worth a look, we’ve covered it in our GTPlayer GT800A Footrest review for your convenience.

    The SecretLabs Titan Evo 2022 offers adjustable lumbar support, which is missing on the SecretLabs Omega SoftWeave Gaming Chair. The Titan Evo 2022 also has a leveled seat base, which is different from the snug-fit seat base on the Omega gaming chair. However, if you’d like a chair with built-in Bluetooth speakers for more immersive gaming, our GTRacing Music Series review might be worth a look.
