00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:05.560
Words cannot describe how happy I am to realize that brands like Razer are finally listening to us.

00:00:05.560 --> 00:00:09.980
They realize that we don't want to sit in racing chairs. I've never raced a day in my life,

00:00:09.980 --> 00:00:13.560
except for that one Channel Super Fun video. We're checking out the Razer Fujin Pro,

00:00:13.560 --> 00:00:18.440
which is Razer's first kind of foray into the Ergo chair gaming market.

00:00:18.440 --> 00:00:23.240
Practice good knife safety, cut away from yourself. Why do I not have a jury rig everything, knife bell?

00:00:23.240 --> 00:00:27.960
So there are two variants of this chair. There's the regular model and the pro model,

00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:31.840
and we have the pro model today. They sent gloves.

00:00:31.840 --> 00:00:36.440
I believe they did this with the last chair that they sent us, which is honestly appreciated.

00:00:36.440 --> 00:00:40.440
This is a heavy chair and may require backup. It is strongly recommended that two people

00:00:40.440 --> 00:00:43.440
assemble this chair, so ask a buddy to help.

00:00:43.440 --> 00:00:48.200
What if I don't have a buddy? Builders gauntlets plus 10 hand protection.

00:00:48.200 --> 00:00:51.240
Caution do not use with magical stones of infinity.

00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:56.680
That's funny. Classic, I always love these disclaimers. I say this in every video, but these are just great.

00:00:56.680 --> 00:01:00.120
This is a very similar unboxing experience to the other chairs that we've unboxed

00:01:00.120 --> 00:01:03.280
from Razer on this channel, which isn't a bad thing. It's time to take your throne.

00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:06.480
What you're about to experience is posture perfect hardcore gaming.

00:01:06.480 --> 00:01:10.840
One of the differences between the Fujian and the Fujian pro, which is what we're unboxing here,

00:01:10.840 --> 00:01:13.880
is the aluminum alloy body.

00:01:13.880 --> 00:01:20.200
Can already see it in the armrest there. That's not nylon. And it also has 4D armrests rather than 3D,

00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:23.440
which is cool if you're looking for more customizability.

00:01:23.440 --> 00:01:26.960
The pro also has depth adjustment for your lumbar support system,

00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:33.720
as well as height, which the base model has as well. So far, I'll say that things are feeling premium.

00:01:33.720 --> 00:01:37.920
This is, this is hefty. My main point of comparison for this video

00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:44.000
is going to be the Herman Miller Vantum chair, which I unboxed on this channel a little while ago

00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:50.920
and I daily drive here at work at my work station every day. But a thing to note is that the Vantum is around $800,

00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:54.340
while the Fujian pro is about 1049, I believe.

00:01:54.340 --> 00:02:00.200
But I'm digging that already. That feels good. Mesh headrest attachment for Razer Fujian pro accessories.

00:02:01.240 --> 00:02:04.800
Oh boy, more paperwork. Razer offers a five-year warranty

00:02:04.800 --> 00:02:08.760
for nylon and aluminum frame mechanisms and moving parts, and then a one-year warranty

00:02:08.760 --> 00:02:11.320
for upholstery mesh, foam materials, and surfaces.

00:02:12.640 --> 00:02:15.840
Stickers, yo, I'm keeping these.

00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:19.720
Castors, were there any notes about the casters?

00:02:19.720 --> 00:02:22.940
They seem pretty generic.

00:02:22.980 --> 00:02:26.980
I'm a sucker for nice casters on chairs. Perfect, so there's only three spare screws,

00:02:26.980 --> 00:02:30.020
which is exactly what we have, so everything is here and accounted for.

00:02:30.020 --> 00:02:34.220
They're telling me to build on foam. We're not going to build on the foam. We're just going to build on the floor, you know?

00:02:34.220 --> 00:02:37.660
It's okay. Oh, a carpet, I got a carpet. First, we install the casters.

00:02:37.660 --> 00:02:42.340
Remember, you're supposed to have a buddy building the chair with you, but I don't have a buddy.

00:02:42.340 --> 00:02:46.540
So we're going to build this solo. We're going to break all the rules.

00:02:46.540 --> 00:02:50.700
I got loose in these four bolts here, as per the instructions.

00:02:50.700 --> 00:02:55.780
This hand tool isn't complete garbage, which I appreciate, and you can use it like this too.

00:02:55.780 --> 00:02:59.780
That's actually very nice. Thank you, razor. Oh, this is probably the part

00:02:59.780 --> 00:03:03.700
where they want you to have a buddy. Oh my gosh, that's hefty. Woo!

00:03:03.700 --> 00:03:09.460
It's got to be so nice watching videos rather than making videos, because you watch the chair get built in like 10 seconds,

00:03:09.460 --> 00:03:12.060
but it actually takes an hour and a half. How in the...

00:03:14.620 --> 00:03:15.460
No!

00:03:18.340 --> 00:03:22.580
I am doing the no-buddies approach. Hard mode.

00:03:22.580 --> 00:03:26.220
Oh, it's got a serial number. Probably for your warranty. That's cool, it's just attached to the chair.

00:03:26.220 --> 00:03:30.980
I think we did it! Oh, okay!

00:03:30.980 --> 00:03:35.540
Next! I like that they're pre-installed.

00:03:35.540 --> 00:03:39.540
Makes it seem I have to fumble around. It's just loosening them, attach, tighten.

00:03:39.540 --> 00:03:43.340
Makes it easy. You just need to read the instructions.

00:03:43.340 --> 00:03:48.060
Like the lever to adjust your armrest is so...

00:03:48.060 --> 00:03:51.300
Alloyed, a little bit of lefty-loosey. Now, righty-tighty.

00:03:52.860 --> 00:03:58.100
Slots right in. We got our screws, put them in, and we're done.

00:03:58.100 --> 00:04:02.020
We dropped this guy right onto it. All right.

00:04:02.020 --> 00:04:05.860
That was easy. Is that literally it? I think that's it.

00:04:05.860 --> 00:04:08.900
Perfect! I didn't need any friends at all.

00:04:12.020 --> 00:04:12.860
You know what?

00:04:17.900 --> 00:04:20.900
No, I got this, don't worry. Imagine if I break it.

00:04:20.900 --> 00:04:21.740
Oh, these!

00:04:24.300 --> 00:04:28.020
This isn't how you're supposed to build the chair. Razer gave good instructions.

00:04:28.020 --> 00:04:33.180
I just didn't follow them. Oh, that's unfortunate.

00:04:33.180 --> 00:04:37.140
Okay, that'll buff out. That will not buff out.

00:04:37.140 --> 00:04:40.220
I got a few scratches in this. That's just for me wrestling with it on the floor.

00:04:40.220 --> 00:04:43.260
You probably shouldn't build the chair upside down from how it's supposed to be built.

00:04:43.260 --> 00:04:46.820
So keep that in mind. Step 10 confused me a little bit

00:04:46.820 --> 00:04:50.300
because I undid the screw and this part didn't naturally just come apart.

00:04:50.300 --> 00:04:54.860
We pull it out, it hooks on, you screw it back in and that's how to fix it to the back of the chair.

00:04:54.860 --> 00:04:58.140
Good news about the damage that I did to the chair is that it's gonna be covered.

00:04:58.140 --> 00:05:01.460
I intended that to be the plan from the start.

00:05:01.460 --> 00:05:05.180
You can control how easy it is to adjust the headrest by turning the screw a bit.

00:05:05.180 --> 00:05:09.100
I loosened it because I wasn't sure what it was at first. Essentially, you can lock the headrest in place

00:05:09.100 --> 00:05:12.820
by just tightening the screw there. The first thing I immediately notice

00:05:12.820 --> 00:05:17.020
is that Razer, they resisted. They didn't just paint this thing in green

00:05:17.020 --> 00:05:22.020
from head to toe. This is something understated that I would actually daily drive.

00:05:22.020 --> 00:05:26.380
No offense, I like green, I just don't like it all over all of my products all the time.

00:05:26.380 --> 00:05:30.420
One of the big complaints that Linus had with the Herman Miller Vantum is that when you sat on it,

00:05:30.420 --> 00:05:33.820
you basically could feel the frame pressing against your butt.

00:05:33.820 --> 00:05:36.820
You don't have that here, this mesh is more taut.

00:05:37.900 --> 00:05:43.100
You just feel the mesh. There's actually a significant amount of distance between my butt and the bottom.

00:05:43.100 --> 00:05:45.300
Okay, I'm gonna test these casters out, always.

00:05:47.420 --> 00:05:51.520
Casters are fine, nothing to write home about, negative or positive.

00:05:51.520 --> 00:05:56.860
As I was saying when I was building the chair, the frame itself is very, very premium feeling,

00:05:56.860 --> 00:06:02.860
which is good. The armrest's soft, honestly softer than the Vantum,

00:06:02.860 --> 00:06:05.500
I believe, four-dimensional adjustments.

00:06:06.420 --> 00:06:13.300
One thing I do like about the Vantum is it's got more, what's it called, chamfered edges.

00:06:13.300 --> 00:06:16.820
So basically what it means is the armrest, it kind of slants down a little bit,

00:06:16.820 --> 00:06:19.940
gradually, so it makes it easier if you're kind of controller gaming.

00:06:19.940 --> 00:06:23.780
This, it's pretty, it just drops off, but that's fine.

00:06:23.780 --> 00:06:29.740
I like that the button's right there, that's nice. I don't have to lean over, or is it?

00:06:29.740 --> 00:06:33.020
Just, ah, nice.

00:06:33.020 --> 00:06:39.560
Oh, that's where it is to move the seat. Whoa, seat forward and seat back.

00:06:40.540 --> 00:06:45.380
I like to sit back in my chairs, I don't like when the edge kind of goes right under my knees, not comfortable.

00:06:45.380 --> 00:06:49.180
Yo, what is this? Look at these, you can adjust these panels up and down.

00:06:49.180 --> 00:06:52.580
So there's that lumbar adjustment that you can get, which is cool.

00:06:52.580 --> 00:06:56.260
And then you turn this dial to actually push the lumbar support system in.

00:06:56.260 --> 00:07:00.220
I don't have the support of my family. I do have the support of my family.

00:07:00.220 --> 00:07:03.900
Look at that, that's great. Ah!

00:07:03.900 --> 00:07:07.700
See, can't just flip the tab and have it

00:07:07.700 --> 00:07:11.380
spring you off the chair. I actually kind of like that. So if you want to adjust,

00:07:11.380 --> 00:07:17.140
it seems like you have to push back for it to kind of unlock and that resets.

00:07:17.140 --> 00:07:20.780
That's cool, I like that. And we have tension adjustment down here.

00:07:20.780 --> 00:07:25.260
Turn this, this way for tightening, and this way for loosening.

00:07:25.260 --> 00:07:29.720
I like it. I think I need to compare it to the chair that I sit in every single day though.

00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:32.900
This is actually the Logitech edition of the Herman Miller Vantum chair,

00:07:32.900 --> 00:07:37.900
which we covered on ShortCircuit a while back. Like I said, I think I broke the headrest.

00:07:38.860 --> 00:07:43.700
Yeah, I completely just destroyed that.

00:07:43.700 --> 00:07:47.740
This is an example of some of the issues that you can run into when your chair is built from something like a nylon,

00:07:47.740 --> 00:07:51.620
whereas the Razer Fujin Pro, part of what you're paying for

00:07:51.620 --> 00:07:54.980
is this upgrade in the material, right?

00:07:54.980 --> 00:07:58.740
So even with this mechanism, I don't know how I could break the headrest

00:07:58.740 --> 00:08:04.460
in the same way that I did on the other chair. I mean, all of your adjustment points

00:08:04.460 --> 00:08:10.340
are made with the aluminum alloy, which is just gonna be better, honestly.

00:08:10.340 --> 00:08:14.140
When I did the video on the Vantum, I didn't really agree with the feedback

00:08:14.140 --> 00:08:18.300
that line is providing, where when you sit in the base of the chair, your butt hits the frame.

00:08:18.300 --> 00:08:21.380
But now that I've sat in this chair for six months straight every day,

00:08:21.380 --> 00:08:26.980
I understand what he was talking about. So I'm gonna do some bum drops on this.

00:08:26.980 --> 00:08:30.580
Tart me to convey the success of the bum drop test,

00:08:30.580 --> 00:08:35.380
but I can definitely feel at the bottom of this chair, whereas when I bum drop onto this chair,

00:08:35.380 --> 00:08:39.800
I definitely don't feel at the base of the chair, and I feel supported, which is what I need.

00:08:39.800 --> 00:08:44.180
Another big thing that I'm not a fan of with the Vantum is its lumbar support system.

00:08:44.180 --> 00:08:47.860
It's just kind of finicky and it adjusts all over the place,

00:08:47.860 --> 00:08:53.160
and there's not a lot of adjustability with it from playing with it. I know there's different things that you can do,

00:08:53.160 --> 00:08:57.380
but that's kind of what appeals to me about this chair.

00:08:57.380 --> 00:09:02.220
And granted, I haven't sat in this thing every day for six months, but you can adjust it in very easy,

00:09:02.220 --> 00:09:05.220
adjust it up or down, depending on your height

00:09:05.220 --> 00:09:09.420
and weight, depending on how you fit into the chair. That's another thing to note,

00:09:09.420 --> 00:09:15.260
is that this chair is rated for up to 300 pounds, I believe, where the Vantum is for up to 350.

00:09:15.260 --> 00:09:18.540
So while this chair is technically rated for more weight,

00:09:18.540 --> 00:09:22.020
I feel like this chair just offers you a little bit more flexibility. If you're a little bit wider,

00:09:22.020 --> 00:09:27.060
you just prefer more space to kind of move in your chair. While I'm hyping up the Razer Fujin Pro,

00:09:27.060 --> 00:09:32.060
it is worth noting that this chair is about $250, give or take, more than this chair.

00:09:32.060 --> 00:09:36.600
So just keep that in mind. With the Fujin Pro, there is the base Fujin model,

00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:40.000
which would be cheaper than the Vantum, but you don't get a headrest

00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:43.920
and you'd have to pay to get the headrest. So it's all kind of, depends on what your price point is

00:09:43.920 --> 00:09:47.320
and what you're looking for. I will say my word of advice

00:09:47.320 --> 00:09:51.560
from having sat on so many different chairs and purchasing many chairs for myself at home,

00:09:51.560 --> 00:09:55.240
is that you don't want to cheap out on a chair.

00:09:55.240 --> 00:09:59.520
I have done that. If you go to my Intel home upgrade on Linus Tech Tips,

00:09:59.520 --> 00:10:02.680
I paid like $150 for an Amazon Basics chair.

00:10:02.680 --> 00:10:06.940
It is terrible. It's completely ruined. I had to get another chair that I also cheaped out on

00:10:06.940 --> 00:10:10.980
and it's also ruined. I could have just bought one nice chair and would have been good.

00:10:10.980 --> 00:10:14.700
So something to think about. This wouldn't be a Razer unboxing

00:10:14.700 --> 00:10:19.300
if I didn't game it, okay? So we're gonna have a gaming test. We're gonna invite a few other people over to check it out

00:10:19.300 --> 00:10:23.060
and we'll go from there. Game in, Counter Strike 2.

00:10:23.060 --> 00:10:27.540
Counter Strike go to? Counter, we're playing the new Counter Strike.

00:10:27.540 --> 00:10:32.360
I got a switch between my weapons really quick and I got to jump a lot.

00:10:32.360 --> 00:10:35.440
That's how you know you're good in this game. Might actually adjust the lumbar

00:10:35.440 --> 00:10:39.560
to be a little bit more in, which I can do from sitting here, which is nice.

00:10:39.560 --> 00:10:42.680
Beautiful, can I move it up from sitting here? Oh, I probably wouldn't do it.

00:10:42.680 --> 00:10:48.120
Yeah, you need both hands, both hands. Boop, oh, that's so nice.

00:10:48.120 --> 00:10:51.440
I like it. This is nice.

00:10:51.440 --> 00:10:55.400
I would buy this chair. Cool, we should get some other people's thoughts. Who else likes sitting?

00:10:55.400 --> 00:10:59.480
At my workstation, I have an embodied chair and then at home I have an Aeron or a Amira.

00:10:59.480 --> 00:11:02.560
I don't know the difference, but I have one of them. So I sit in a lot of Herman Millers

00:11:02.560 --> 00:11:07.760
and I gotta say, this is pretty comfortable. I sit cross-legged a lot when I game.

00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:13.280
I do like a one foot- Oh, I do that too, I do that too, yep. And I pull up, it's just pretty comfortable.

00:11:13.280 --> 00:11:17.800
Here, hold on, let me help you out, dude. Oh, oh, oh yeah, that's good.

00:11:17.800 --> 00:11:22.240
And then if you want it up, I mean, I don't know. Oh, hold on, let me actually do this first.

00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:26.720
You can go up, you can do whatever you want, you know? It's your chair, dude.

00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:30.520
Go wild, get crazy. Heck yeah.

00:11:30.720 --> 00:11:35.320
I love a game, man. I just like that more companies are doing ergo chairs.

00:11:35.320 --> 00:11:39.680
I just, this is nice to look at. It's easy on the eyes, not pain completely in green.

00:11:39.680 --> 00:11:44.400
It's just subtle, subtle, comfy, breathable, it's good.
