This New "Magnetic" Desk is More Than Meets the Eye...

so today we have a very very cool desk and before i show it to you i want to let you know there is a giveaway opportunity to win one of these come see me oh this is your good guy yes that was not good that's not good that's not good it's okay just getting a little too crazy just getting a little too and as i show you how cool this is i think you're gonna be very interested in potentially winning one so head down to the comment section and let me know your twitter handle for your shot at winning just leave a comment make sure you subscribe to the channel and you could have a desk like this one [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] now at first glance it looks like a pretty minimalist black desk but that's what's good about it see you could use this as a workstation desk or you could use it completely tricked out as a gaming desk they kept it subdued in such a way that i think it would fit a lot of different individuals but really the magic thing is how much it does given how slick it looks so the entire thing is made out of metal or at least the vast majority of it and all the accessories hook up to it via magnets now you know i love magnets and because the entire thing or the vast majority of it is made out of metal you can utilize these magnets all over the place now the first standout feature that the magnetic aspect enables is this huge pad that sits on the top and now you've seen desk pads before but usually they don't fit your desk perfectly because they weren't manufactured for it or they can slide around move around and not kind of lock themselves in this one if fully once you slap it down that's it it doesn't you see what i'm saying it doesn't budge it also has this leather like texture which looks to be fairly durable you can see i'm trying to drop fingerprints on it you don't see them there and it just has a nice kind of organic feel to it it could be a fairly comfortable place to sit for extended periods the other thing i should mention while we're talking about this mat the stitching here is optional in other words you can get it in different colors there's going to be a few special editions of this desk and you can match it with your gaming chair because of course that's the origin of secret labs the desk is called the magnus the chairs well this is the titan they make more than one and actually there's something really cool about the way these two things interact so they engineered the desk and chair to have the most comfortable setup possible where the arm rests will get to the exact level of the desk so when my arms sit like this they're completely straight and comfortable because i have my keyboard here i have my mouse over here i wanted to bring up the stitching component because as you can see these two things kind of mesh perfectly together in the standard coloring with the gold and red stitching it's almost like a luxury car or something it's kind of a nice touch to have for your gaming setup considering this is a place that you spend a lot of time you really want to enjoy all right so it doesn't stop there have you ever struggled with cable management issues everybody has it's terrifying trying to manage cables for an elaborate setup if everybody has a lot of peripherals on their desk now you're charging multiple devices check these out all right so you can run a cable through the center channel of each of these and you can set them up wherever you may have your cables coming into your desk area keyboard mouse phone charger whatever it might be and maybe you want it on the side maybe you want to stick one on the side over here you have a charger coming up this way which you access on a regular basis and since you have the channel all the way through when the cable is not in use it just slides back around and can sit in this portion of the desk on the back side over here so you don't have to have the cable hanging too far out but you're not going to lose it over the edge of the desk as so many of us have experienced in the past they even make a magnetic headphone holder which unfortunately i don't have for this video but it clamps to the front side of the desk on the underside it can hold heavy headphones using nothing but a magnet so it's easy to remove and then you could take one of these little bricks and clamp it here and have the headphone cable also supported and sort of living in this location right here and if you're wondering where does the back side of the cable go since we're down here look at this you can run i mean they've thought of everything here you can run the cable above this beam so it doesn't dip down and droop down onto your leg section but instead this holds it up now i've been doing different setups and i've been a tech enthusiast for i mean it feels like forever but for decades and i haven't seen a system quite like this before which aims to truly make it so easy that anybody everybody will do the cable management on this desk i mean it's just so simple so you flip this up at the back and you see this huge channel and shelf so this is going to let you get your power supply get your power bricks into here that you're going to plug all your various peripherals into your chargers and so forth and it's not going to interfere with the back side of the desk when you want to go push it up against the wall in fact there's enough room here that you can actually clamp your monitor mount to this section here and then not have the cable and the mount at the back side so you can get it completely flush with the wall this shelf on the bottom is entirely removable and there's a pass-through which you can access again magnetically from the front boom look it's so easy i can do it from the other side and since this shelf is so substantial it means that you can fit and everything i mean i'm talking like your tablet charger your laptop charger your phone charger it can all go down on this shelf and be out of the way and you're not gonna have to look at it it's completely hidden uh this desk does feature rgb accessed through this remote all you have to do is plug that usb cable into your power source and the nice thing here since this since this rgb lighting is mounted in this hollow section it's going to bounce off of your back wall and create an ambient so they've really thought about uh the optimal location to place this thing so the rgb is actually magnetic as well continuing the magnetic theme this baby just clips on there super simple to attach and install with a system like this you don't have to zip as many things down because they have this nice shelf to work with and then would you want to change something out when you want to shift to a different uh peripheral or a different charger or something like that you just open this door up and that's the end of it and close it back down so you have these little units which are and these are just these are amazing i've purchased plastic versions of these in the past with like 3m strips on them but again once they're installed they're pretty much permanent they're not really going to stick as well as they did in the past when you have to go and remaneuver your setup in this case these are the same steel as the desk leg and then on the inside you have your magnets so once again when you want to go and manage your cables if you want to have them run down the front side no problem as you can see i just slap it on there if i want to bring some other cable up to the front side of the desk bingo same situation no problem and even if i wanted to have it on the back side for some reason i can put it there too but the key here is on and off very easily so you're not discouraged from managing your cables in the first place so they've even included these little magnetic bumpers as well so that when you do push it up against the wall it leaves enough room here for a little channel all right so there's one more thing i want to show you and this is important it's often overlooked you have to have adjustability on each leg so that you can make sure you have a level surface for work and for play and they have uh they have such a simple way of doing it on this desk over here if i twist to the left the leg starts to elevate if i twist to the right it begins to go down so i can go in there and fine tune with an actual level on the tabletop to get complete a completely level surface dialed in without the need to like ratchet the things up or have a couple of different settings or take a screw completely out it's a tremendous amount of fine-tune ability there all right so obviously at this point this desk is missing a gaming setup so we're gonna get something set up here and i'll just see how comfortable it is to actually do well a little bit of gaming [Music] [Applause] [Music] we have a complete setup done now uh rgb galore so everything is fitting in real nice uh got this sort of smaller system which i think fits in but still got the rtx of course gaming mouse and keyboard fits nicely look at the way the cables just sit down into this little gap that we talked about earlier so you have that excess cable can just live in there here we have a usb type-c connector as well as a lightning and then there's a stream deck which is also just secured in that location this is this could be used as a streaming setup it could be used as a gaming setup obviously it can be used for work as well so the rgb is on and you'll see that i mean from your angle that it can also reflect off this little edge but if we were up against the wall you'd also see it bouncing off the wall and look at how small the footprint is once you have the monitor up on the arm we've also got a webcam up here so you could do streaming that's a 4k webcam you guys may have seen me feature that on instagram actually now so the nice thing here about having these cables uh secured in this position i can just pop out the headset i could put it on now this is these are airpods max you would likely have a gaming headset but these were just laying around so you could pop those on and then you could take like your phone or something and since you already have your cable sitting there and it never falls behind because of this management now you're charging that as well everyone's chased cables around thought about cables had way too many cables myself included and so in this case secret lab went out of their way to give a a setup that sort of addresses all those issues and works from the ground up to think about how you're actually going to use the thing as opposed to just putting like four legs and a tabletop which so many people use check out how much stuff is actually packed in here and again with this piece popping up i can easily access this and just like switch out a particular charger if i choose to pull an extra usb cable from there look at how even for this relatively simple setup look at how much cable is already managed and out of the way simply because of this design and that would where would that be that would either be on the desk or it would be on the floor or behind your desk unfortunately so keeps things nice and clean a lot of people went out of their way and upgraded their gaming chair so they had a more comfortable place to sit that was sort of developed for longer periods of time and now the desk itself is catching up with the launch of their new magnus it lines up really well with their chairs and it sort of gives you some of those similar features and tweaks that go above and beyond your typical form factor typical desk boring desk straight up desk that you may be currently sitting at so i mean this is a cozy spot no doubt there you go where you went the other way all right all right all right trying to help out there we go just helping out i'm just helping out that's it i'm trying to be a hero trying to help out a little bit that's all there is to it trying to help out a little bit that's all it is come see me oh this is your good guy [Music] yes that was not good that was not good that was good that's okay she's getting a little too crazy she's getting a little too impatient starts telling me i gotta be patient sometimes not a lot of fun being patient come back [Music] come back come on it's great i don't get to play games very often i've been trying to explain to you guys it's like unlocking past life lou past life addictive experiences and especially with like the whole setup deal as well you know because it's like a smooth i got a smooth setup mechanical display uh my armrests are matching up perfectly with the height of my desk as i explained previously so i i feel very comfortable i could be here for hours honestly somebody didn't disrupt me and i just kept going oh that's not good okay jay where are we going it ain't pretty but it gets the job done where where art though [Music] too aggressive again [Music] man games are fun i gotta tell you man i wish i got to do this more often games are fun times they're in there they're in there [Music] ah this guy came from the other side maybe i'll stick with these piles now for a bit [Music] man i just like us [Music] is this gas bad news or what [Music] okay i feel like a few bullets connected [Music] there [Music] [Music] oh oh if i hadn't done the reload like they always tell me where'd you go i got one that's fine uh [Music] thank you no reload really long just be reloading we've been five in a row or something remember the real old white one shot i should just spray until ah [Music] [Music] reload [Music] [Applause] [Music] oh [Music] good shooting from that dude bad shooting from myself [Music] oh [Music] so good lord i'm just on the bad side of it [Music] now [Music] cold that guy wiped this all out oh my god damn i wipe this off all out we suck we suck we suck we were things were going all right and then i don't know they turned it on they started to play this game oh we won nevermind gaming is is an absolute blast i'll tell you what i mean you didn't need me to tell you you already knew that's why you're watching this video but i don't get a chance to game all that much busy lifestyle and such however every so often you get a beautiful setup such as this and you rekindle and i just rekindled i need about like i don't know 10 20 50 more rounds to get to a place where i'm satisfied but i guess that's how this thing works right just one more round check me out look at this this is the best part as far as the secret labs component is concerned that completely flat approach to the keyboard and mouse there's no tension like i wasn't feeling any uh fatigue with the with my left actually with either arm because it's just lined up so nice you can even get a decent posture going with the chair like the chair comes into a spot into an aggressive like a fighter jet type of location here who knows if i keep at it better watch out you might find me on twitch probably not
