Razer Iskur vs Cooler Master Caliber X1C

The Razer Iskur - Fabric - XL is one of the very best Gaming Chairs that one can get for around $570. The Cooler Master Caliber X1C Gaming Chair, however, while a very good choice at its $270 price point, falls just short of being remarkable.

Two highly trusted sources that perform well-thought-out in-depth testing consider the Razer Iskur - Fabric - XL to be a great product - it earned the "The best gaming chair with adjustable lumbar support" title from Tom's Guide and "Ranked 2 out of 5" from TechGearLab in their respective Gaming Chair roundups, which is a good indication of it being a notable product.

Taking a look at the Cooler Master Caliber X1C Gaming Chair, it got featured in roundups from two reliable sources that conduct their own testing - PCmag and Tom's Hardware - but it fell short of earning a top spot in either.

We examined all of the review data that we could find and first took a look at sources that reviewed both of them, like Tom's Hardware, and found that they haven't shown a preference for either product.

Then we checked which sources liked these two Gaming Chairs best and found that the Razer Iskur - Fabric - XL got its highest, 10, review score from reviewers at T3, whereas the Cooler Master Caliber X1C Gaming Chair earned its best score of 9 from PCmag.

Lastly, we averaged out all of the reviews scores that we could find on these two products and compared them to other Gaming Chairs on the market. We learned that both of them performed far better than most of their competitors - the overall review average earned by Gaming Chairs being 7.3 out of 10, whereas the Razer Iskur - Fabric - XL and Cooler Master Caliber X1C Gaming Chair managed averages of 8.7 and 8.5 points, respectively.

Due to the difference in their prices, however, it's important to keep in mind that a direct Razer Iskur - Fabric - XL vs. Cooler Master Caliber X1C Gaming Chair comparison might not be entirely fair - some sources don't take value for money into account when assigning their scores and therefore have a tendency to rate more premium products better.
