This is the first time I'm unboxing a gaming chair and I don't have the box.
Today we're checking out the Cooler Master motion one haptic gaming chair.
I was hoping I could get a little bit of help building this chair, but Elijah from Logistics tried to put it together and he cut his hand up pretty bad.
So safety first, I brought gloves. We're going to grab all the parts, bring them in here and then we'll get going.
Is that literally it? Oh man, I'm loving this already. Let's go. Obviously some cables, power plug and connector, some tools.
I might have thrown one of these. I'll make sure I have it. This is the magnetic lumbar for the motion one and we've got a magnetic headrest as well.
I am missing a crucial component of the chair. Where do I sit?
I believe this chair when it got shipped to us came in two packages. So if not too much, every time I don't look at the assembly instructions and I go,
we don't need them. We need them. Follow instructions kids. This is just for software.
Bella is telling me off camera that it'll be easy. How could Elijah have even cut himself? I'm afraid to find out.
It's actually kind of scary when you have no idea. None of this looks sharp. It is metal, which is a good thing for build quality.
Cooler master partnered with D-Box to build kind of the haptic system for this chair.
Does this screw on? There's no way. I will say while I fumble around with this stuff, there's definitely a lot of heft to this chair.
I'm going to sit. We're going to sit folks. Pretty obvious to me now that I'm looking at this,
that this just lines up with here to screw in. So all things considered, this actually is pretty straightforward to put together.
One thing that'll help you when you're tightening screws, righty tighty, lefty loosey folks.
You keep giving me crazier things to unbox every time we're doing like
LED smart desks, haptic chairs, like what's next?
Actually subscribe to find out. I don't know if this is the right way to go about this, but here we are.
Line it up. Whoa. I don't want this to fall on anybody.
There's an instruction video. How long have you had an instruction video for and you didn't tell me?
Literally just threading it. Just, just threading it.
So it is as straightforward as it looks, which is good,
but bad because I didn't put it together properly. This is goofy dude.
I'm afraid everything's going to cut me. I am on the safety committee.
I'm going to need you to sign a waiver bell, but can you come sit on it? Let's just push down.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Confirmed you need a friend.
This is really easy to put together. All right, almost there.
There we go. That's a chair. That is a D-Box Cooler Master Motion One Chair.
Now what?
It's my magnet test. Support.
Sweet. Now we're going to take a seat in this thing. I just want to get a feel for the chair.
That is firm. That is firmer than my parents growing up.
That is, I don't know what I was expecting. I wasn't expecting that.
Do you literally just have to unscrew this thing to adjust the height?
Stop. No.
What? Please no. Please like.
Sun screwing. And then what you would do to lock it in is you have your thumb screw
and you would just tighten that to lock into place.
Okay. ARM rest adjustable.
Something I'm realizing now as we're trying to power the chair on is that this needs to be facing this way for you to be able to get this thumb screw in.
So you can adjust its height. You just need to screw it in when the chair is the right direction.
While we've got Master Plus installing on our PC, we are going to connect this chair to the computer with USB
and we're going to give it power with the power ports.
Let's go. Just going to take a drink from my LTT Store water bottle.
Updates for a chair. What a world. What a world.
Again, disclaimer, I have never messed with anything. Any racing sims.
Send a note to my boss to fire me. Please. Would you like to install this device software?
Yes, please. Preparing install. I thought it was already installing.
I'm sorry. All right. Here we go. Congratulations.
Launch hapti, hapti sync, hapti sync app. Oh, there's a new version of dbox motion.
My God, just install it all at once.
The good news is you'll be able to see what setting all of this is like
for a complete newcomer like myself. So here we go.
Device status. Device online. Checking for new content.
I now have to read these player testing instructions. We plugged it in.
That's the motion core. I already have an account with dbox done.
Launch the hapti sync app. Why did the screen go more dim? I don't know, but that's okay.
Watch the videos to understand how to get the most out of games with dbox coded gaming mode.
Uh, okay. So on the hapti sync app, I just changed that.
What? Oh my God, I know what it is. I don't have the chair turned on for the love of God.
Press the button. Here, maybe I need to adjust something on the...
Yo. Turns out having the power button on was the solution.
So now the chair is on. It's detecting the chair. Also, it's been downloading content for like five minutes.
We got 1%. That must be a big library.
I don't know what it is. If I click from this dbox app to the cooler master app,
it like the screen will flicker. It's really weird. See?
What? Oh, look at this. This is fun. I got RGB on this thing.
What's going on? It's moving. I clicked on adaptive audio.
So I wonder is it... What's that song?
Yeah, that's the one.
I know I'm going to like get it to a certain section and then it's going to be like...
I can't. There's just a little bit of a rattle.
The rumble isn't...
You know when you're driving a car and you're behind like an old Honda Civic
and they've got a big sub in the back and you just hear the whole car rattle
as it goes down the street? Overall in terms of haptic feedback, it's there.
It's just a little rattle-y.
I can't. Yeah.
Okay. There's got to be something I'm doing wrong. Maybe it's just a setting.
Maybe it's supposed to be. Okay, let me get my composure.
Okay. Okay. The response is a little crazy right now.
I'm going to go back into the settings and see what I can tweak with just to get it a little bit more smooth.
One nice thing about adjusting settings in the D-Box app is every time I move the slider,
I can actually feel the haptic feedback. I'm going to turn it down to negative 10 dB.
We had it at zero before. That might have been part of our problem. Now let's try listening to crap rape.
I'm trying to imagine listening to this with headphones on and how the haptic feedback
would enhance my listening experience. I mean, realistically, me, if I'm going to buy a chair like this,
I'm going to do it for gaming. So let's launch into gaming. I'm going to switch the mode from adaptive audio,
but I kind of want to go through the four main modes that this D-Box app has.
It has D-Box coded video, which is video that D-Box has,
I assume, tailored the experience towards. Has D-Box coded gaming,
which four is a Ryzen five is a thing for. So that's what we're going to switch to.
And then it's got adaptive audio, which we were just on. So D-Box coded gaming.
My only concern with this is it's only downloaded 10% of the content library.
This library must be massive. D-Box Game Center shows up as an app on the PC,
but I get an error code when I try to launch it. I'm going to go back to the Cooler Master app here
that has the video library, and we're going to watch the video on coded gaming.
Okay. So the issues that we can't even get to that. So I wonder if we need to either wait for the complete library to download,
which we're not going to be able to do during this video.
Re-launching the Haptic Sync app, telling content 12%. Cannot load file or assembly.
M-Base version 1.0.20268.
Plan B. We're going to switch from D-Box coded gaming to adaptive gaming.
We're going to just get a sense for what that experience is like. Adaptive gaming configuration.
So let's open the adaptive gaming configurator. Sorry, is it just doing haptic feedback for keystrokes?
I'm doing WASD right now. The thing is going wild. Okay.
The D-Box Haptic Sync app, Masterplus app, everything is just background process from there.
Selective profile, default common profile, keyboard and gamepad.
We've got the, ahhh! Too near, yes.
I'm sorry to disrespect you chair. Please.
While we're waiting for the computer to reboot, we're just going to do some cable management on the back here.
I don't know if I've said it yet in this video, but this chair is $2,299 US.
So just FYI in terms of pricing.
So it's not completely obvious navigating D-Box's website here,
but it looks like you need to pay $10 a month to get the codec for the movie that you want to watch
that you already need to own in order to get the coded experience with this chair.
Definitely, you definitely need to get your wallet. We're going to let D-Box finish installing all of its software
and then we're going to come back in a little bit or maybe tomorrow even and experience this stuff.
It's been about two weeks. I've got this nice new hoodie from LTTstore.com
and we are back. The chair has been fixed and all we needed to do
and all we needed to do, you ready for this? You ready for this?
We just had to uninstall and reinstall everything and hypothetically it's starting
and we should be D-Boxing any minute here.
Something worth mentioning is that some of these coded games do require a little bit of extra setup
and some work right out of the box. You just download it and start playing.
You're good to go. We're going to land right there. Let's go. We can get some air.
We got air. We're airborne. It's moving. It's not a lot though.
It's quite subtle even for what I'm doing. Like if I run into something cool, stop.
Oh, except you need to know how to drive and apparently I don't.
That's okay. They gave me my license anyways. I think you really got to dial in your settings for this.
Standard for three actuators? I don't know what any of this stuff means. What if I click help?
Adjusting the global level will affect the overall intensity of your motion experience.
It can be lowered if you find it too intense. Since I already tried a hundred, let's try...
Did I hit apply? Hold on. This is me getting to work and try not to be late.
This product is obviously something that you need to dial in the settings
for whatever use case you're using it for. I don't feel like I've done a great job at that,
especially since we were troubleshooting it for a little bit there. If I'm going to buy something like this,
I would want to get the wheel. I'd want to get a premium surround setup for audio.
I'd want to get headphones. I would want to go full bore. I want to get lighting.
One more time. I'm going to open up the control panel. Adjust the slider.
For motion vibration balance from 100 to negative 100,
the chair is vibrating less, but it's moving more. Does that make sense?
It's more going up and down, like going back to back side to side more,
but it's not vibrating as much as it was on the other setting. This is not good.
I would do the other way. We should just have it at the balance mode. We should just...
Now putting the slider back in the middle, this truly is the most optimized experience.
This is a good amount of jerky motion and just vibration.
Good vibes. I've got good vibes going on. Imagine if you've never seen one of these chairs before.
And somebody was pulling a prank on you, and he just came around the corner and this is just going.
Whoa, I got so much air there. Teardrop, teardrop, teardrop. Oh, in the ocean.
In terms of my first foray into these types of chairs,
it's been an adventure, that's for sure. Not to mention we hit a few pain points with,
you know, some of the guides not being as intuitive as it could be, having to completely reinstall the D-Box software.
Also having the D-Box software need to download...
I don't even know how many files that was when we were filming two weeks ago,
but it was a ton. At $2,400, is the Cooler Master Motion one something I would personally buy?
Might not be for me, but maybe it is for you. I don't know.
That's it. Thank you very much for watching this video. Would your setup benefit from something like this?
Let us know in the comments below. Like the video and check out the video that I did on the B-Flo Tenon.
It was pretty cool. Built the CEO desk.
