00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.160
This is the first time I'm unboxing a gaming chair and I don't have the box.

00:00:04.160 --> 00:00:08.240
Today we're checking out the Cooler Master motion one haptic gaming chair.

00:00:08.240 --> 00:00:14.240
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.

00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:19.280
So safety first, I brought gloves. We're going to grab all the parts, bring them in here and then we'll get going.

00:00:19.280 --> 00:00:29.520
Is that literally it? Oh man, I'm loving this already. Let's go. Obviously some cables, power plug and connector, some tools.

00:00:29.520 --> 00:00:38.640
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.

00:00:39.840 --> 00:00:43.440
I am missing a crucial component of the chair. Where do I sit?

00:00:44.160 --> 00:00:50.800
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,

00:00:50.800 --> 00:00:54.800
we don't need them. We need them. Follow instructions kids. This is just for software.

00:00:54.800 --> 00:01:00.960
Bella is telling me off camera that it'll be easy. How could Elijah have even cut himself? I'm afraid to find out.

00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:06.240
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.

00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:13.440
Cooler master partnered with D-Box to build kind of the haptic system for this chair.

00:01:13.440 --> 00:01:18.720
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.

00:01:18.720 --> 00:01:23.120
I'm going to sit. We're going to sit folks. Pretty obvious to me now that I'm looking at this,

00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:28.880
that this just lines up with here to screw in. So all things considered, this actually is pretty straightforward to put together.

00:01:28.880 --> 00:01:33.680
One thing that'll help you when you're tightening screws, righty tighty, lefty loosey folks.

00:01:35.440 --> 00:01:38.480
You keep giving me crazier things to unbox every time we're doing like

00:01:39.200 --> 00:01:44.000
LED smart desks, haptic chairs, like what's next?

00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:48.400
Actually subscribe to find out. I don't know if this is the right way to go about this, but here we are.

00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:53.200
Line it up. Whoa. I don't want this to fall on anybody.

00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:57.360
There's an instruction video. How long have you had an instruction video for and you didn't tell me?

00:01:57.360 --> 00:02:00.800
Literally just threading it. Just, just threading it.

00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:04.880
So it is as straightforward as it looks, which is good,

00:02:05.520 --> 00:02:09.920
but bad because I didn't put it together properly. This is goofy dude.

00:02:09.920 --> 00:02:12.960
I'm afraid everything's going to cut me. I am on the safety committee.

00:02:12.960 --> 00:02:16.240
I'm going to need you to sign a waiver bell, but can you come sit on it? Let's just push down.

00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:20.160
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Confirmed you need a friend.

00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:26.960
This is really easy to put together. All right, almost there.

00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:37.280
There we go. That's a chair. That is a D-Box Cooler Master Motion One Chair.

00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:37.680
Now what?

00:02:40.320 --> 00:02:42.800
It's my magnet test. Support.

00:02:44.480 --> 00:02:48.640
Sweet. Now we're going to take a seat in this thing. I just want to get a feel for the chair.

00:02:48.640 --> 00:02:51.680
That is firm. That is firmer than my parents growing up.

00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:55.360
That is, I don't know what I was expecting. I wasn't expecting that.

00:02:55.360 --> 00:02:58.160
Do you literally just have to unscrew this thing to adjust the height?

00:02:58.720 --> 00:03:01.280
Stop. No.

00:03:02.720 --> 00:03:05.600
What? Please no. Please like.

00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:12.560
Sun screwing. And then what you would do to lock it in is you have your thumb screw

00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:14.560
and you would just tighten that to lock into place.

00:03:15.760 --> 00:03:18.240
Okay. ARM rest adjustable.

00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:26.320
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.

00:03:26.320 --> 00:03:31.360
So you can adjust its height. You just need to screw it in when the chair is the right direction.

00:03:32.480 --> 00:03:37.360
While we've got Master Plus installing on our PC, we are going to connect this chair to the computer with USB

00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:39.760
and we're going to give it power with the power ports.

00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:44.320
Let's go. Just going to take a drink from my LTT Store water bottle.

00:03:45.440 --> 00:03:48.240
Updates for a chair. What a world. What a world.

00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:52.800
Again, disclaimer, I have never messed with anything. Any racing sims.

00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:57.520
Send a note to my boss to fire me. Please. Would you like to install this device software?

00:03:57.520 --> 00:04:00.640
Yes, please. Preparing install. I thought it was already installing.

00:04:00.640 --> 00:04:03.920
I'm sorry. All right. Here we go. Congratulations.

00:04:03.920 --> 00:04:08.800
Launch hapti, hapti sync, hapti sync app. Oh, there's a new version of dbox motion.

00:04:08.800 --> 00:04:10.560
My God, just install it all at once.

00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:15.680
The good news is you'll be able to see what setting all of this is like

00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:19.120
for a complete newcomer like myself. So here we go.

00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:23.040
Device status. Device online. Checking for new content.

00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:27.600
I now have to read these player testing instructions. We plugged it in.

00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:33.440
That's the motion core. I already have an account with dbox done.

00:04:34.080 --> 00:04:38.000
Launch the hapti sync app. Why did the screen go more dim? I don't know, but that's okay.

00:04:38.000 --> 00:04:42.160
Watch the videos to understand how to get the most out of games with dbox coded gaming mode.

00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:46.240
Uh, okay. So on the hapti sync app, I just changed that.

00:04:47.520 --> 00:04:52.080
What? Oh my God, I know what it is. I don't have the chair turned on for the love of God.

00:04:53.440 --> 00:04:56.560
Press the button. Here, maybe I need to adjust something on the...

00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:04.000
Yo. Turns out having the power button on was the solution.

00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:08.560
So now the chair is on. It's detecting the chair. Also, it's been downloading content for like five minutes.

00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:11.600
We got 1%. That must be a big library.

00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:15.840
I don't know what it is. If I click from this dbox app to the cooler master app,

00:05:15.840 --> 00:05:18.720
it like the screen will flicker. It's really weird. See?

00:05:19.440 --> 00:05:22.320
What? Oh, look at this. This is fun. I got RGB on this thing.

00:05:23.840 --> 00:05:28.160
What's going on? It's moving. I clicked on adaptive audio.

00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:30.000
So I wonder is it... What's that song?

00:05:31.440 --> 00:05:32.240
Yeah, that's the one.

00:05:34.480 --> 00:05:37.520
I know I'm going to like get it to a certain section and then it's going to be like...

00:05:49.520 --> 00:05:53.360
I can't. There's just a little bit of a rattle.

00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:54.240
The rumble isn't...

00:05:59.600 --> 00:06:02.800
You know when you're driving a car and you're behind like an old Honda Civic

00:06:02.800 --> 00:06:06.000
and they've got a big sub in the back and you just hear the whole car rattle

00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:09.600
as it goes down the street? Overall in terms of haptic feedback, it's there.

00:06:09.600 --> 00:06:11.440
It's just a little rattle-y.

00:06:16.960 --> 00:06:20.160
I can't. Yeah.

00:06:20.160 --> 00:06:23.760
Okay. There's got to be something I'm doing wrong. Maybe it's just a setting.

00:06:24.320 --> 00:06:27.600
Maybe it's supposed to be. Okay, let me get my composure.

00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:35.600
Okay. Okay. The response is a little crazy right now.

00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:40.160
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.

00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:44.400
One nice thing about adjusting settings in the D-Box app is every time I move the slider,

00:06:44.400 --> 00:06:48.480
I can actually feel the haptic feedback. I'm going to turn it down to negative 10 dB.

00:06:48.480 --> 00:06:52.560
We had it at zero before. That might have been part of our problem. Now let's try listening to crap rape.

00:06:52.560 --> 00:06:56.880
I'm trying to imagine listening to this with headphones on and how the haptic feedback

00:06:56.880 --> 00:07:00.800
would enhance my listening experience. I mean, realistically, me, if I'm going to buy a chair like this,

00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:04.640
I'm going to do it for gaming. So let's launch into gaming. I'm going to switch the mode from adaptive audio,

00:07:04.640 --> 00:07:08.080
but I kind of want to go through the four main modes that this D-Box app has.

00:07:08.080 --> 00:07:11.760
It has D-Box coded video, which is video that D-Box has,

00:07:11.760 --> 00:07:15.040
I assume, tailored the experience towards. Has D-Box coded gaming,

00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:18.640
which four is a Ryzen five is a thing for. So that's what we're going to switch to.

00:07:18.640 --> 00:07:23.040
And then it's got adaptive audio, which we were just on. So D-Box coded gaming.

00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:27.200
My only concern with this is it's only downloaded 10% of the content library.

00:07:27.200 --> 00:07:31.520
This library must be massive. D-Box Game Center shows up as an app on the PC,

00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:37.280
but I get an error code when I try to launch it. I'm going to go back to the Cooler Master app here

00:07:37.280 --> 00:07:41.600
that has the video library, and we're going to watch the video on coded gaming.

00:07:41.600 --> 00:07:46.640
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,

00:07:46.640 --> 00:07:49.360
which we're not going to be able to do during this video.

00:07:50.000 --> 00:07:54.160
Re-launching the Haptic Sync app, telling content 12%. Cannot load file or assembly.

00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:57.520
M-Base version 1.0.20268.

00:07:57.520 --> 00:08:00.720
Plan B. We're going to switch from D-Box coded gaming to adaptive gaming.

00:08:00.720 --> 00:08:04.640
We're going to just get a sense for what that experience is like. Adaptive gaming configuration.

00:08:04.640 --> 00:08:10.400
So let's open the adaptive gaming configurator. Sorry, is it just doing haptic feedback for keystrokes?

00:08:10.400 --> 00:08:13.840
I'm doing WASD right now. The thing is going wild. Okay.

00:08:14.400 --> 00:08:18.560
The D-Box Haptic Sync app, Masterplus app, everything is just background process from there.

00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:22.560
Selective profile, default common profile, keyboard and gamepad.

00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:25.840
We've got the, ahhh! Too near, yes.

00:08:25.840 --> 00:08:29.520
I'm sorry to disrespect you chair. Please.

00:08:29.520 --> 00:08:33.360
While we're waiting for the computer to reboot, we're just going to do some cable management on the back here.

00:08:33.360 --> 00:08:37.680
I don't know if I've said it yet in this video, but this chair is $2,299 US.

00:08:37.680 --> 00:08:40.880
So just FYI in terms of pricing.

00:08:40.880 --> 00:08:44.800
So it's not completely obvious navigating D-Box's website here,

00:08:44.800 --> 00:08:49.360
but it looks like you need to pay $10 a month to get the codec for the movie that you want to watch

00:08:49.360 --> 00:08:54.000
that you already need to own in order to get the coded experience with this chair.

00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:58.880
Definitely, you definitely need to get your wallet. We're going to let D-Box finish installing all of its software

00:08:58.880 --> 00:09:03.200
and then we're going to come back in a little bit or maybe tomorrow even and experience this stuff.

00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:06.800
It's been about two weeks. I've got this nice new hoodie from LTTstore.com

00:09:06.800 --> 00:09:11.200
and we are back. The chair has been fixed and all we needed to do

00:09:11.280 --> 00:09:14.320
and all we needed to do, you ready for this? You ready for this?

00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:19.440
We just had to uninstall and reinstall everything and hypothetically it's starting

00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:23.120
and we should be D-Boxing any minute here.

00:09:23.840 --> 00:09:27.840
Something worth mentioning is that some of these coded games do require a little bit of extra setup

00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:30.960
and some work right out of the box. You just download it and start playing.

00:09:30.960 --> 00:09:34.560
You're good to go. We're going to land right there. Let's go. We can get some air.

00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:41.840
We got air. We're airborne. It's moving. It's not a lot though.

00:09:41.840 --> 00:09:46.160
It's quite subtle even for what I'm doing. Like if I run into something cool, stop.

00:09:46.160 --> 00:09:49.520
Oh, except you need to know how to drive and apparently I don't.

00:09:49.520 --> 00:09:54.560
That's okay. They gave me my license anyways. I think you really got to dial in your settings for this.

00:09:55.280 --> 00:09:59.200
Standard for three actuators? I don't know what any of this stuff means. What if I click help?

00:09:59.200 --> 00:10:02.720
Adjusting the global level will affect the overall intensity of your motion experience.

00:10:02.720 --> 00:10:06.640
It can be lowered if you find it too intense. Since I already tried a hundred, let's try...

00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:12.960
Did I hit apply? Hold on. This is me getting to work and try not to be late.

00:10:12.960 --> 00:10:16.000
This product is obviously something that you need to dial in the settings

00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:20.800
for whatever use case you're using it for. I don't feel like I've done a great job at that,

00:10:20.800 --> 00:10:25.680
especially since we were troubleshooting it for a little bit there. If I'm going to buy something like this,

00:10:26.400 --> 00:10:32.080
I would want to get the wheel. I'd want to get a premium surround setup for audio.

00:10:32.080 --> 00:10:35.760
I'd want to get headphones. I would want to go full bore. I want to get lighting.

00:10:35.760 --> 00:10:38.960
One more time. I'm going to open up the control panel. Adjust the slider.

00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:42.240
For motion vibration balance from 100 to negative 100,

00:10:42.240 --> 00:10:45.440
the chair is vibrating less, but it's moving more. Does that make sense?

00:10:45.440 --> 00:10:49.440
It's more going up and down, like going back to back side to side more,

00:10:49.440 --> 00:10:52.880
but it's not vibrating as much as it was on the other setting. This is not good.

00:10:52.880 --> 00:10:56.160
I would do the other way. We should just have it at the balance mode. We should just...

00:10:57.360 --> 00:11:00.960
Now putting the slider back in the middle, this truly is the most optimized experience.

00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:04.480
This is a good amount of jerky motion and just vibration.

00:11:04.480 --> 00:11:08.800
Good vibes. I've got good vibes going on. Imagine if you've never seen one of these chairs before.

00:11:09.040 --> 00:11:12.720
And somebody was pulling a prank on you, and he just came around the corner and this is just going.

00:11:12.720 --> 00:11:17.040
Whoa, I got so much air there. Teardrop, teardrop, teardrop. Oh, in the ocean.

00:11:17.040 --> 00:11:20.720
In terms of my first foray into these types of chairs,

00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:25.200
it's been an adventure, that's for sure. Not to mention we hit a few pain points with,

00:11:25.200 --> 00:11:30.480
you know, some of the guides not being as intuitive as it could be, having to completely reinstall the D-Box software.

00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:33.520
Also having the D-Box software need to download...

00:11:34.160 --> 00:11:37.440
I don't even know how many files that was when we were filming two weeks ago,

00:11:37.440 --> 00:11:42.000
but it was a ton. At $2,400, is the Cooler Master Motion one something I would personally buy?

00:11:42.960 --> 00:11:46.160
Might not be for me, but maybe it is for you. I don't know.

00:11:46.960 --> 00:11:50.560
That's it. Thank you very much for watching this video. Would your setup benefit from something like this?

00:11:50.560 --> 00:11:54.960
Let us know in the comments below. Like the video and check out the video that I did on the B-Flo Tenon.

00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:56.720
It was pretty cool. Built the CEO desk.

00:11:58.000 --> 00:11:58.720
Tarantong.
