Briony goes POSTAL – and cuts up GAMING CHAIRS!

A year and a half ago I reviewed the noblechairs Epic gaming chair (HERE) . I really liked the chair and rated it a solid 9/10 meaning it earned our top “Must have” award. Since that review I have been using the chair as my daily driver while working, gaming and filming.

In this video I discuss how well the chair has held up over its lifetime and give it a final review before cutting it apart live on camera with the help of Noblechairs themselves. Alas it is not needless destruction as we wanted to compare the internals of the £300 chair to that of a generic racing style gaming chair that can be bought on amazon for around £60. Can the noblechair still justify its expensive price tag?

Kitguru says: It's clear to see there is a pretty solid difference in the materials used between the two chairs and we certainly feel a noblechair is still a worthwhile investment. We love to hear from our readers so let us know if you feel that the £300 price tag is more justified after our dissection!

When Intel launched Lunar Lake (Core Ultra 200V) in 2024 we gave you the technical details and followed up with a review of the Asus Zenbook S 14 which has incredible battery life. In the following month we discussed Intel Arrow Lake (Core Ultra 200S) and how we considered it was unfit for review in a situation that was not resolved until February 2025. On the one hand we have Lunar Lake which we like, while on the other hand we have Arrow Lake which is troubled, yet both families of processors run on Lion Cove P-cores and Skymont E-cores and have a huge amount in common.
