Secretlab has unveiled its latest iteration of the popular Titan Evo gaming chair, introducing revolutionary material technology that promises enhanced comfort and durability. However, this premium upgrade comes with a significant price increase that might give potential buyers pause.
New Material Technologies
The NanoGen Edition introduces two major innovations: the NanoGen Hybrid Leatherette and NanoFoam Composite cushioning. The new leatherette material offers unprecedented softness and durability, boasting 14 times more abrasion resistance than standard polyurethane leather. The material has undergone rigorous testing, including a remarkable 10-kilometer abrasion test, suggesting exceptional longevity under normal use conditions.
Enhanced Comfort Features
The chair's most significant improvement lies in its innovative NanoFoam Composite seat cushioning system. This dual-layer design combines Secretlab's signature cold-cure foam base with a softer top layer, creating a perfect balance between comfort and support. The cushioning is strategically tapered, being thickest at the front and gradually reducing toward the back, ensuring optimal weight distribution and comfort for extended gaming sessions.

Premium Build Quality
Maintaining Secretlab's reputation for excellence, the NanoGen Edition retains the brand's hallmark features, including 4D adjustable armrests with PlushCell foam tops, magnetic memory foam neck pillow, and a four-way adjustable lumbar support system. The chair's construction quality remains top-tier, with impeccable stitching and attention to detail throughout.
Price Consideration
The significant price increase positions the NanoGen Edition at $799 for the Regular size and $849 for the XL version, representing a roughly $200 premium over the standard Titan Evo. While the comfort improvements are tangible, this price point may be difficult to justify for many consumers, especially considering the standard Titan Evo remains an excellent choice at a lower price point.
Size Options and Specifications
The chair comes in two sizes: Regular (suitable for users up to 6'2 and 220lbs) and XL (recommended for users 5'11 or taller and up to 395lbs). Both versions feature a maximum recline of 165 degrees and come with a 3-year warranty, extendable to 5 years through social media engagement.
