SecretLab Titan EVO 2022 R vs 2020 Titan

Were does one see the difference? i have not seen any year, i just saw Titan Evo i got the XL one Jinx themed total cost 644 Euro currently

Hi! Nice r! Im one of the concrete guys. I have back pain and tailbone pain. I had 2020 model and sold it. Is 2022 model any softer on seat padding or its just the same as it was?

Where I can buy yours pads for foot ?

These chairs have way too many problems for it to be overpriced and over hyped

Get video man! Thanks a lot. Very detailed report.

It's not an exaduration, it's like a slab of concrete. unless your a teen or never done a hard days work in your life. I cant tthink of anything worse than comming home from a physical job and sitting in this contraption. it litterally destroyed my back. im quite muscular/padded but my bit cheeks were so sore and my back was just trash after an hour in this thing. the lumbar support is like a knobbly ball. totally crap unless you loosen it and then theres no point. AKracing all the way!

Does the 2022 Titan evo editions backrest fit on the normal Titan 2020base

I just got a Titan EVO the other day and I had the loud sound when first adjusting the lumbar support, about when I'd reached full extension on it. It sounded like a trapped spring suddenly releasing or something similar. It still seems to function normally so I don't think it's anything to worry about. I think I do have a slight difference in armrest height as well, like others have noted.

i experienced armrests being un even by the same amount. i feel like they mixed up the S, R, and XL, arm rests.. why else would they manufacture different height arm rests.. i will say i have had this happen on budget gaming chairs, key word - budget. hasent been enough for me to notice or fuss about

I had 2020 Titan model in Australia and I can confirm mine also had different armrest height too.

I have the 2020 version, yea quality control was an issue for mines as well, there a gap/angle where the backrest meet the cushion

What is that desk

I’ve been having issues with the 2020 model, I weigh 250lbs and the chair goes up to 290lbs. The locking mechanism went out twice already and they claim I would have to pay $70 to get a new locking mechanism. I’m looking at the new 2022 models and it says that it’s 395lbs and the locking system is heavy duty, any one having any issues with the locking mechanism with this lineup???

Unless you like sitting on a rock do not buy secret labs. Awful. Don’t believe me… Go ahead spend £500.. Oh and customer service are a disgrace!

I like the chair, but Iam a bit concerned about the Magnets in the armrests.
Mechanical watches can have their movements magnetized pretty easily, would hate to have to spend a lot of money regularly for using the armrest with a wristwatch on.

I received my brand new Titan 2022 model first of this month. The lumbar knob was broken on the backrest when removed it from the box, the magnetic pillow is damaged and has a tear in it also out of the shipping box. I have went back and forth with them sending them pictures of the damage and. Ow they won’t even respond. They do not honor there warranty at all. There warranty department is obviously not in America. Not sure how I can get them to honor it. But I hate having a expensive chair and the plastic knob on side is broken in half.
My arms on my chair are very offset also.

I have a 2020 Titan and my wife has the 2022 Titan Evo S. I don't see much difference at all. Even in width, they feel very similar.

2020 pros - arm rests feel more solid

2022 pros - magnetic pillow
- better adjustments for lumbar

I was waiting for my wife's to come in so I could compare. I was debating wanting to replace mine with the 2022. After using both, I'm keeping the 2020. With actual use they feel very similar. Not enough upgrades to justify replacing it. Secretlab makes a great product.

I find them too hard but I just bought a memory foam cushion pad to sit on and now it's perfect and when that gets flat I can just replace the cheap cushion and not the whole chair

I am biased to getting secret lab no matter the debate because of their sick collabs. Yes, I'm a sucker for gimmicks 🤓

your content on secret labs have been killer! i have some cheap chair form staples lol and it is about 4 years old and the seat has finally lost all comfort so ive been trying to figure out which chair to get and its gonna be the secret labs titan 2022

I just ordered this model a few weeks ago. Gota wait till February though to put it together

They have protective skins for the chairs also Atleast for soft weave. I will be investing

Hi sorry a year late did you have the regular or xl? I’m 6’1.5 so on the boarder line unsure which to get! And there now £488 on offer (£550 for the Xl so like $600!)

Anyone know if the arm rest issue and lumbar support noise was fixed?

Your floor is off.

I’m 6’3 and I just turned 15 so i was hesitant to buy one

I've also had the different arm heights issue with my old Titan XL

More than likely its your floor thats throwing it off, probably the same thing happened to your friend, flipping geniuses!

i take that arm rest as good thing being off! right hand is always lower due to the mouse and the left arm resting is always higher for the keyboard, while YES it should be equal BUT its not a bad sign as its natural for the left hand to be higher in use so it will help you out even though we dont believe it to be helpful lol

Just bought one (before seeing this review) and put it together last night... so basically I'm using it properly for the first time * right now * after having the same old mesh office chair for ~8 years

So...
Brilliant packaging and easy to put together. The massive box won't fit through my loft hatch though so it's either going in the garage (to waste loads of space) or to the tip (to waste loads of packing).
The chair is much firmer than I'm used to. It's obviously going to 'break in' to some extent, and I'm comparing back to an old mesh chair (that was falling apart).
The lumbar support feels very firm. The height adjustment doesn't seem to make much difference - is mine broken? Or is it just a subtle difference?
The arm rests on mine are the same height.
The soft weave feels much cooler than my daughters (similar) Corsair chair. So it's really good as a fabric choice if you want to stay chilled in the hot weather.
Build quality is excellent except the arm rests do have some play in all directions and therefore can rattle if you give 'em a shake. I wasn't expecting that tbh, but it's not something you notice when on the chair.

In summary, I'm expecting to have some back ache or shoulder ache after a day's work for the first time in years, as I feel I haven't dialled this thing in yet, and I've been soooooo used to the previous chair (even with a broken backrest and horrible squeaks). That's probably going to put someone off, reading that. I can only say I'll either get used to it in a couple of weeks, or I'll make use of their returns policy! (That is: request return within 2 weeks, return in original box, pay for parcel delivery - fair enough)

The armrest height difference is tied to the position of the armrest base fixations under the chair ! :) if they are not perfectly positioned at the same length under the chair -> then you'll have a slight difference in height : as the underneath of the chair is not perfectly flat ! ^^

I have the evo 2022 titan just over a week and it’s lumbar support is creaking like crazy. I’ve contacted support and after reading multiple reports on this I now wish I hadn’t bothered. People getting replacement back units and still having the same issue. I’ve already tried adjusting the settings over and over and still the same issue and getting worse. Junk, don’t bother buying this chair

I currently have a Vertagear chair that's starting to fail on me and been looking at Secretlab, I've also noticed my armrests are uneven by a small amount. Seems like it's an adjustible armrest thing because my Ficmax chair I had before this one didn't have adjustible armrests and they were perfectly even

Finally purchased my first Secret Lab chair, it was a lengthy heavily researched choice, 😭. I decided on the 2022 DVA, regular, softweave fabric, and it's amazing. Everything about this chair was impressive, the box, the packaging, the tools, and not to mention assembly. Assembly was super straight forward, there is a video you can follow or a step by step massive diagram with colored pictures. The magnets for the arm rests and pillow seem very strong and durable. I am super geeked about the look and comfort of the chair and I hope it lasts me for quite sometime.The lumbar support and position adjustments really add comfort to the experience. I feel like its worth the investment, and totally recommend. I used all my own pennies to purchase the chair and have no regrets!!! (so far)

While eating greasy tacos, and the oil pouring out both on me and my new 2022 chair, IDK, clothes went in the wash and the fake leather wiped right on up, fat, dumb, and happy…that’s my story, and I am sticking to it!

Just got my new 2022 model and I really feel like I've been hitting everyone across the map and through walls. The fact that the armrests are not level though is driving me insane.

This is probably the most comprehensive and competent review of an item I've seen so far. Usually something is missed, not mentioned, or hidden completely. Thank you.

I have a 2020 and my arm rest are also uneven both in height and how close they are to the backrest

considering 92Kg, should go with regular or XL size for 2022 model?
anyone has experience to suggest.

Thanks for the video! I decided to go with the 2020 Softweave Titan based on your information and my preferences. I used your affiliate link and name dropped you in the comment box at checkout. Keep up the good work!

Well the titan evo 2022 gave me nothing but lower back pain, thank god I can get a refund.

That Ewin Flash XL is big and it cost a little less and it has a 550 weight capacity

2020 titan, lower back is killing me. Developed lower back pain ever since purchasing the Titan chair. Not happy with it at all.

How does the seat firmness hold up to a DxRacer chair? When I first got my DxRacer I also thought it was hard as a rock but I have come to love it and after buying 3 different chairs, I keep going back to my DxRacer. So can anyone comment if it is harder/softer/same as a DxRacer?

The seat cushion looks thinner on the new one

I’m sitting on one of these and it feels like I am sitting on a carpeted concrete floor. Incredibly uncomfortable. Had to buy a cushion to go on it.

I have different height armrests on my 2020 titan

my titan evo 2022(XL) just arrived today and GOD, it is very comfortable and the quality is very good
