Mavix Gaming Chairs: A New Way to Play

Mavix is a new company that has spent the last few years developing a unique style of gaming chair. The goal was to create something that eclipses the traditional race car seat design. This resulted in the M series line of chairs known for an ergonomic design and breathable materials that allow you to focus on the game and nothing else.

The gaming chair manufacturer doesn’t hide the fact that these are premium chairs, using high-quality materials that bring a high price tag along with them. There are currently four models Mavix offers, outlined as follows:

Chair Series Default ModelPrice
M4$488.88
M5$619.99
M7$859.99
M9$1099.99

Mavix M Series

Mavix’s line of M series chairs offers gradual upgrades as you work through the lineup. Each model provides optional add-ons in the form of a footrest, gaming chair mat, and Elemax technology. Elemax introduces fans to cool your body, relax your muscles, and even throws in a therapeutic massage.

Let’s break down each M series chair and see what makes them stand out.

Mavix M4

MAVIX - M4 Gaming Chair Black/Black
  • Dynamic Variable Lumbar (DVL) Support: Get the exact amount of support you need with the Mavix M4; it adjusts itself to your body every time you move.
  • Fixed Back Reclining Support: The M4 features a fixed back height design that can fully recline back allowing you to choose how you want to sit while gaming. Lock in the recline position easily for seamless functionality and comfort.
  • Adjustable Head & Neck Support: Have you ever been uncomfortable after sitting for a few hours without head & neck support? Not with Mavix. All Mavix Models come with an adjustable head & neck support because good ergonomic principles don’t end at your shoulders.
  • Locking Wheel Casters: The M4 comes standard with Locking Wheel Casters. Stay in one place while gaming by the click of a button and release when ready to roll about your space.
  • One-way Adjustable Arm Rests: The M4 armrests can be raised up and down based on the arm height that you need. Give yourself the right amount of support during gameplay to ensure you keep your head in the game and not on arm strain.
Mavix M4
Weight: 45 pounds (20.4 kilograms)
Material: Mesh
Seat Width: 19.5 inches (49.5 centimeters)
Max Weight: 250 pounds (113 kilograms)
Recline: 90° to 127°
Adjustable Height: 3 inches (7.6 centimeters)
5 Wheel Plastic Base
1D Armrests
Dynamic Variable Lumbar Support and Adjustable Headrest
MSRP: $488.88

The Mavix M4 is a minimalist gaming chair design, weighing only 45 pounds. Its small stature blends well into any gaming space, allowing your rig to stand out.

A proprietary mesh material permeates the chair, allowing for breathability in any setting. This feature is missing from a majority of the other chairs on the market that can leave sweaty areas after hours of play. The M4 has a built-in dynamic lumbar support and an adjustable headrest to maximize comfort.

For all it does have, the M4 falls short with 1D armrests that offer limited mobility and a rather generic plastic wheel base that doesn’t look up to the challenge of supporting the 250-pound weight limit. The wheels are lockable, though, so you can do away with awkward rolling around when you don’t want to.

There’s no lever to activate the recline feature but rather a pin that you have to pull out before you can adjust the backrest. Once you’re at the angle you want, you still need to slide the pin back in place. It’s tedious, and you can only recline the chair to 127° anyway.

I’m at a loss for what makes the M4 worth its $488.88 price tag. Perhaps it doubles as an office or gaming chair, but a minimalist approach should have a minimalist price tag. You can pick up Secretlab’s Titan Evo 2022 or even a Razer model for not much more.

Mavix M5

MAVIX - M5 Gaming Chair Black/Black
  • Dynamic Variable Lumbar (DVL) Support: The DVL on the M5 adjusts itself to your body every time you move. Get the exact amount of support you need, no matter how you sit, or how long you play.
  • Infinite Locking Position Reclining Support: Part of being comfortable is finding just the right seating angle. The M5 offers Infinite Locking Position Reclining Support that allows you to find your perfect mix of comfort and support while you play, and lock it in.
  • Two Way Adjustable Arms: Gaming setups are variable, and no two users are built exactly the same. The Two Way Adjustable Arms on the M5 easily move up and down and swivel in and out for comfort at your setup.
  • Adjustable Head & Neck Support: Have you ever been uncomfortable after sitting for a few hours without head & neck support? Not with MAVIX. All MAVIX Models come with an adjustable head & neck support because good ergonomic principles don’t end at your shoulders.
  • Adjustable Backrest Height: Adjust the M5's backrest height so that you are fully supported, from your lumbar curve to your neck. This ensures you get maximum support where you need it most.
Mavix M5
Weight: 48.1 pounds (21.8 kilograms)
Material: Mesh
Seat Width: 20.5 inches (52.1 centimeters)
Max Weight: 300 pounds (136 kilograms)
Recline: 90° to 135°
Adjustable Height: 4.5 inches (11.4 centimeters)
5 Wheel Plastic Base
2D Armrests
Dynamic Variable Lumbar Support and Adjustable Headrest
MSRP: $619.99

Mavix’s M5 model is actually a precursor to the M4 but offers some improvements over the base model.

Featuring the same mesh design, the M5 has a more pronounced lumbar support section encased in a faux leather material. The lumbar support is still adjustable along with the headrest pillow so most people can find a comfortable position.

The chair itself is a few pounds heavier but supports up to 300 pounds and has a 20.5-inch seat width that can be expanded further for $44.44 more. You can recline back a bit further than with the M4, but the mechanic is still the same.

You will have access to 2D armrests that move forward and backward in addition to up and down. It’s a minor upgrade that won’t work for everyone. For an extra $165, you can upgrade these to 360° armrests. For gamers on the outskirts of the height spectrum, you can adjust the chair’s height 4.5 inches.

Another hybrid gaming/office chair model, the M5 will set you back $619.99 without optional upgrades. This price point places it above some of the top gaming chairs that offer 4D armrests and metal wheel bases right out of the gate.

Mavix M7

MAVIX- M7 Gaming Chair White/Black
  • Dynamic Variable Lumbar (DVL) Support: Uber soft and incredibly strong, the M-Breeze fabric on the M7 DVL provides next level comfort, breathability, and support where you need it most.
  • Deep Recline Responsive Support Mechanism: One of the most important features on the M7 is the Deep Recline Responsive Support Mechanism. The ability to recline the back independently of the seat ensures that you will achieve maximum support & comfort simultaneously
  • 4-Dimensional Armrests: No one keeps their arms in the same position all day. Mavix is ready to move with you. Easily adjust the armrest height, depth, width, and angle as you move throughout the day.
  • Adjustable Head & Neck Support: Have you ever been uncomfortable after sitting for a few hours without head & neck support? Not with MAVIX. All MAVIX Models come with an adjustable head & neck support because good ergonomic principles don’t end at your shoulders.
  • Adjustable Backrest Height: Adjust the M7's backrest height so that you're fully supported, from your lumbar curve to your neck. This ensures you get maximum support where you need it most.
Mavix M7
Weight: 50 pounds (22.7 kilograms)
Material: Mesh & M-Breeze
Seat Width: 21 inches (53.4 centimeters)
Max Weight: 300 pounds (136 kilograms)
Recline: 90° to 148°
Adjustable Height: 4.5 inches (11.4 centimeters)
5 Wheel Plastic Base
4D Armrests
Dynamic Variable Lumbar Support and Adjustable Headrest
MSRP: $859.99

The M7 finally introduces a 4D armrest that you can adjust in most directions. Being able to position your arms in the right place for gaming goes a long way in the comfort category. It’s also possible to recline this model back to 148° when you need to rest or watch a show.

The seat width continues to widen from other models, with the M7 up to 21 inches from side to side. Mavix uses what they call an M-Breeze leather-like material to cover the headrest and lumbar support area. The fabric is known for a soft feel that compliments the mesh on the rest of the chair.

With this model, you’ll receive M-wheels, which look like the type you’d see on in-line roller skates. They do glide much better than the base wheels over carpeted and otherwise rough terrain.

These improvements come at a cost, as the M7 retails for $859.99. Comfort is key with gaming chairs, and this model does deliver. I’m still not convinced that this high cost is justified, considering features like Elemax and 360° armrests cost more still.

Mavix M9

MAVIX - M9 Gaming Chair Black/White
  • Dynamic Variable Lumbar (DVL) Support: All M9 Chairs feature Advanced Tensile Recovery (A.T.R.) Fabric on the DVL. A.T.R. is a woven multilayered nylon that is both responsive and supportive. It provides more give and spring than traditional fabrics and breathes like a mesh.
  • Revolve – Extended Recline Technology: Revolve extended recline technology allows for an amazing 127 degree arc angle in full extended recline. Let your body be suspended in a near-flat oasis of comfort. A quick nap is at your fingertips.
  • 4-Dimensional Armrests: Desks, workstations, battlestations and gaming setups are constantly changing. M9’s 4-D arms are ready to change with them. Gone are the days of the chair arms blocking your ability to sit comfortably at your preferred spot.
  • Adjustable Backrest Height: Adjust the M9's backrest height so that you're fully supported, from your lumbar curve to your neck. This ensures you get maximum support where you need it most.
  • Cool Gel Memory Foam & M-Breeze Fabric: Mavix's Cool Gel M-Foam is the perfect seating surface for long hours of gaming. Our memory foam has been formulated to mold your body but also provide just the right degree of bounce back and support so that you don't feel like you are sinking into it.
Mavix M9
Weight: 58 pounds (26.3 kilograms)
Material: Cool Gel Memory Foam Seat & M-Breeze Fabric
Seat Width: 22 inches (55.9 centimeters)
Max Weight: 300 pounds (136 kilograms)
Recline: 90° to 150°
Adjustable Height: 4.5 inches (11.4 centimeters)
5 Wheel Plastic Base
4D Armrests
Dynamic Variable Lumbar Support and Adjustable Headrest
MSRP: $1099.99

Mavix’s M9 surpasses the $1,000 mark before optional extras, enough to cause anyone some sticker shock.

The most notable difference from the M7 is the material, switching from mesh to a unique M-Breeze ultra-comfortable faux leather. It’s designed to mold to your body while offering the support you need to game for hours on end.

You’ll also have access to a 22-inch seat and a recline that leans back to 150°, but all other features like up with the M7. This includes the skater wheels, 4.5-inch adjustable height, and 4D armrests.

Final Thoughts

Mavix certainly offers a comfortable bunch of chairs, and users with back issues profess that these are some of the only chairs to provide a respite from pain. Most come with a minimalist design that helps them fit in an office setting or gaming space, depending on where you need the chair to go.

All that being said, I really struggle to justify the price points these chairs are listed for. I’d need to get at least the M7 to have all the features I like on my chairs, but I’m not sure my money is best spent here. The consensus though is that the comfort is well worth it.
