My initial encounter with the Hinomi X1 chair was marked by a blend of anticipation and curiosity. Having previously heard commendations about its predecessor, the Hinomi H1 Pro, I was keen to discover how the X1 would hold up in real-world usage. It's not quite "gaming" branded like those from Secretlab or Razer, but Hinomi does place ergonomics and comfort as key tenets for their chairs.
The chair's aesthetic is the first thing that catches the eye. The Hinomi X1, with its sleek design and modern contours, exudes a professional yet contemporary vibe.. It's a piece of furniture that wouldn't look out of place in a high-end office. That said, the grey model that Hinomi sent over for me to review will certainly look a little odd in an RGB-filled gaming-themed room.
The four-panel backrest is a standout feature of the Hinomi X1. Unlike traditional chairs that offer a monolithic back support, each panel is designed to cater to a specific area of the back. In use, this translated to a remarkable level of comfort. I noticed a significant reduction in the typical discomfort I experienced after long hours of sitting. The upper panels provided ample support for my shoulder and upper back area, a boon for those of us who tend to slouch after hours at a desk.
