Key information
The HBADA X7 chair features an AI-based smart lumbar system that utilizes magnetic sensors to detect pressure changes and automatically adjust to the user's movements, offering a unique approach to lower back support during desk work and gaming sessions.
The automatic adjustment functions by employing magnetic sensors to register the pressure placed on the lumbar support, reacting by either extending or retracting to match positions whether lounging or engaged in mouse-clicking.
The reviewer noted initial setup struggles due to user error and personal stature, while observing that the chair can unfortunately support bad posture if a user slumps. Additionally, the seat-mounted fans can be loud at higher settings, the lean-back auto-tensioning is too loose, and the headrest feels clunky and basic compared to the rest of the chair.
The X7 is priced at £1,169 during an Autumn sale and includes standard features like an 8D bionic back massager, heating and red light therapy, cooling fans, and adjustable armrests, making it a comfortable and reactive option despite its marketing buzzwords.
