Ergonomic Features
Adjustable Lumbar Support
Noblechairs Hero
The Noblechairs Hero is equipped with an excellent integrated adjustable lumbar support system and usually, you will not need a pillow for support. The chair features a knob on the right side and you can twist it to customize the lumbar support to your need.
Secretlab Titan EVO
Well, the Secretlab Titan EVO features a 4-way L-ADAPTâ„¢ built-in lumbar support system. With a knob found on the right of the back, we can adjust the lumbar depth. While the knob on the left side of the back is used for lumbar height adjustment.
From our experience, we have observed the Noblechairs Hero has much better lumbar support than the Titan. With nice little knob lets, we were able to easily attain the desired back and neck support.
Adjustable Armrests
Noblechairs Hero
It has enlarged 4D armrests and we were able to make adjustments in depth, height, angle, and distance to the base of the seat. The armrests feature a textured surface for better grip. The enlarged size makes them usable for many users.
Secretlab Titan
For Secretlab Titan EVO, you will get metallic, 4D armrests that offer four-way adjustments i.e. height, width, depth, and pivot.
The Titan’s armrests are more advanced and come with hot-swappable armrest caps/tops. You can swap the tops with the CloudSwap™ replacement system that lets you upgrade the armrest tops in a second. The magnet effect ensures the perfect alignment of the tops.
Being infused with German-made memory gel, the Titan’s armrest tops provide ergonomic support, disperse the heat, and evenly distribute the weight by conforming to your wrist and elbow.
Adjustable Seat Height
The Noblechairs Hero comes with an adjustable seat height. The chair features a 4-class gas lift that helps to easily customize the seat height. The lever underneath the seat can be used to increase or decrease the seat height (48-56cm).
The Secretlab Titan also has a high-quality class-4 gas lift that ensures the easy adjustment of seat height. The chair has a shorter and engineered gas lift so that you can easily keep your feet on the ground. Underneath the seat, find a lever on the right side to adjust the seat height.
The Titan EVO comes in three different sizes (Small, Regular, XL), and each size has its unique seat height. The small size Titan has ≤ 169cm seat height, while regular and XL sizes have 170-189cm and 181-205cm respectively.
Head Pillow
Noblechairs Hero
It comes with a set of soft and flexible cushions (additional cost). The bigger one is for the lumbar support and the smaller one is for the neck support. The small-sized head cushion has a strap while the larger one doesn’t. Usually, you will not be using any of them.
Secretlab Titan
It has a more advanced magnetic memory foam head pillow that is incredibly soft and supportive. Having a magnet in it, the pillow quickly snaps into place on the headrest, there will be no sliding issues usually. Being infused with cooling gel, it keeps our heads cool and provides better ergonomic support.
Tilt Mechanism, Rocking, and Reclining
Noblechairs Hero
There is a multi-tilt mechanism in Noblechairs Hero that allows you to tilt back completely. With a lever found underneath the seat, you can lock and unlock the tilt mechanism.
The Hero chair offers a rocking mechanism. Locate a knob underside of the seat to adjust the rocking of the chair. Both tilt and rocking allow extensive customization for an individual.
A hand brake-style lever on the right of the seat lets you flip back up to 135 degrees. With the unlocked condition, it will further move back 11 degrees.
Secretlab Titan
The Secretlab Titan EVO also offers a complete tilt and reclining. A lever on the left side of the chair allows you to lock and unlock the tilt angle. With this lever, you can also lock the angle mid-tilt. A big knob underneath the seat will let you adjust the tilt tension.
You will be able to recline the backrest up to 165 degrees. There is a lever on the bottom of the seat that is used to adjust the reclining angle.
The Titan is poor in rocking as it is not designed that way.
As for as a Synchro-Tilt Mechanism is concerned, both Hero and Titan chairs lack it.

Comfort Level
Noblechairs Hero

The one-sized chair has more room to adjust our body while working, playing games, watching movies, dramas, etc. We don’t need any extra cushion for lumbar support, just a small pretty knob is enough to adjust the integrated lumbar to achieve the best support.
Secretlab Titan EVO
It has three different sized chairs. It features integrated lumbar support to give cushion-less support to our neck and back. The different knobs located on the sides of the back are extremely helpful to adjust the height and depth of lumbar support.
