AutoFull M6 Ultra: Two-minute review

Alright, I'm going to be totally honest: I wasn't expecting the AutoFull M6 Ultra gaming chair to be very good. I've seen gaming chairs with fancy massage and cooling functions before, and I was never very impressed with them (in fact, I had a good laugh about one of them during Amazon Prime Day 2022).

On paper, it sounds a bit ridiculous: a premium gaming chair absolutely loaded with features, from '6D' armrests to built-in fans and even a heating element that helps keep your posterior the perfect temperature. In practice, though, it delivers on all the advertised promises - almost all of them, anyway.

(Image credit: Future)

For starters, it's genuinely very comfortable and feels like a premium product. The cushioning is nice and plush on the seat, back, and headrest, and the PU leather finish is pleasantly cool to the touch. Both the base of the seat and the lumbar support section are perforated to make them more breathable, too.

I'd potentially go so far as to call this one of the best gaming chairs out there right now - but more due to the overall high quality and comfort, rather than the extra fancy features. That being said, the cooling and heating functions genuinely do work - more on that later in this review.

In fact, I'd have to admit that some of my issues with the AutoFull M6 Ultra are more to do with me than the chair itself. I'm 6'3", and I can't help but feel like this chair simply wasn't designed for someone of my stature. But if you're six feet tall or less, this could be the perfect chair for you - especially if you live somewhere with a warm climate.

AutoFull M6 Ultra: Price and availability

(Image credit: Future)

With a $799.99 / £799.99 (around AU$1,225) price tag, the M6 Ultra is far from affordable. Even relatively premium offerings from respected gaming chair brands like SecretLab and NobleChairs are cheaper.

That being said, it's worth noting that this is the highest-end model sold by AutoFull. If you're willing to sacrifice the massage and cooling/heating functions, there's also the M6 Elite, which retails for $599.99 / £599.99 (around AU$920) and retains the same high build quality without the extra bells and whistles.

Plus, at the time of writing, the M6 Ultra is on sale at AutoFull's website (seemingly in every territory), bringing the price down to a far more reasonable $569.99 / £569.99 (around AU$875). In that range, it's going up against chairs like Razer's Iskur V2 and the SecretLab Titan Evo, and for my money, it performs reasonably well against those rivals.

AutoFull M6 Ultra: Design and features

(Image credit: Future)

To describe this gaming chair as feature-rich is almost an understatement; I'm frankly surprised it doesn't also cook my dinner and do my taxes. In terms of its core construction, it's nothing groundbreaking; we've got a five-armed ergonomic base with smooth rolling casters, a fully reclining backrest, and a racing seat design with sturdy but not uncomfortable bolsters on either side.

The armrests feature '6D' movement, which sadly doesn't mean that they're capable of accessing a forbidden sixth dimension of spacetime, but rather that they can move in six specific directions.

This makes the armrest position highly customizable, which is great, though I would've liked to see a little more resistance on the 360-degree rotation; it's a bit too easy to push them out of position when getting up or sitting down, but this is an admittedly very minor quibble on my part.

(Image credit: Future)

The recline function works well, with a sturdy feel to the backrest and the option to go back almost to a fully horizontal position. Combined with the extendable flip-up legrest, it's certainly one of the most comfortable gaming chairs - you could reasonably take a comfortable nap in the M6 Ultra if you were so inclined, or reclined (sorry).

The headrest is very plush, but - somewhat unusually for a premium gaming chair - isn't removable. Instead, it's mounted on an adjustable bracket, and the sides can be 'folded' inwards too for a cradling effect. It's good enough, but I can't help but feel like a magnetic headrest would've been a better choice here. The lumbar support is also fully adjustable (and very comfy), but can't be removed without damaging the chair.

(Image credit: Future)

Now, onto the good stuff: does this chair really keep your bum cool? Surprisingly, yes, it does. Two fans in the breathable seat center can be set to three different power levels, and they definitely do keep the temperature down. I reviewed the M6 Ultra at the peak of a nasty heatwave here in the UK, and while I wasn't exactly blown away (no pun intended) by the cooling, it did make a noticeable difference after an extended period in the chair.

The heating function works quite well, too. Given the current temperatures at the time of writing, I was reluctant to use it for very long, but it certainly does get nice and toasty. It's easy to imagine how pleasant that could be in the middle of winter.

The same can't really be said for the 'massage' functionality, unfortunately. This is basically just a vibration motor concealed in the lumbar cushion, which can be set to pulse at three different speeds. I was hoping for a more active massage experience (like those bulky chairs you see at malls and airports) and ultimately found it more annoying than relaxing.

All of these features are controlled by three buttons on the seat.

So, how does the AutoFull M6 Ultra actually perform in practice? Well, for me, not great. At 6'3", I'm simply a bit too tall for this gaming chair; the headrest was the main offender, as setting it to the maximum height was still a little too low for me to sit comfortably. The NobleChairs Hero TX that I use as my regular desk chair stands about two inches taller by comparison.

Luckily, I have a 5'9" fiancé who I was able to persuade (read: bribe with snacks) into using the chair for a few days, and he reported that it was actually fantastically comfortable if you're not excessively tall. Even after a five-hour Stardew Valley binge, it was comfy and sweat-free thanks to the cooling function. Consider this a warning, then: if you're my height or taller, this might not be the chair for you.

In terms of other body types, the M6 Ultra is wide enough to accommodate most plus-sized users, and it works well for cross-legged sitting as well. The lumbar support is genuinely great (something I'm always on the lookout for in desk chairs), and it's very easy to find a natural elbow position thanks to the multi-directional armrests. It's also Lucy-approved, an extremely important certification for any chair, as you can see in the picture below.

Don't worry, she was perfectly happy to sit in the chair; she just looks perpetually concerned. (Image credit: Future)

When it comes to the question of longevity, it's always difficult to gauge exactly how well a chair will last based on a few weeks reviewing it, but I have to say that I feel confident about the staying power of the M6 Ultra. The stitching looks and feels high-quality, and the chair as a whole is very robust, with mostly metal and leather in its construction; the only plastic I could see here was the external covers for the seat hinges and the lumbar adjustment dial.

One last thing I have to bring up: don't expect to be rolling around in this thing unless you've also got a USB power bank to connect to it. The USB cable that powers the extra features is simply too short to practically connect it to a PC or wall outlet unless you remain perfectly still, so the best solution is to plug it into a portable charger and store that in the handy pocket on the back of the chair.

AutoFull M6 Ultra: Should you buy it?Buy it if...

You want a feature-rich gaming chair
The AutoFull M6 Ultra is positively overloaded with features, from the fully adjustable lumbar support to the cooling fans. If you want a chair that can do it all, this is the one to pick.

You want to be super comfortable
With breathable PU leather, plush cushioning, a built-in legrest, and near-horizontal recline, the M6 Ultra might be one of the most comfortable gaming chairs on the market - just so long as you're not too tall for it.

Don't buy it if...

You're taller than six feet
If you're on the tall side, this probably won't be the right chair for you - due primarily to the headrest, which can be adjusted up and down but not fully removed (or at least, not without permanently breaking it).

You’re on a budget
If you want a new gaming chair but don't want to spend a lot, you'll be better served elsewhere - this is an undeniably pricey throne.

How we tested the AutoFull M6 Ultra

I spent more than a week testing out the AutoFull M6 Ultra gaming chair, swapping out my usual desk chair, the NobleChairs Hero TX, to use it daily at home, both for work (since I work from home) and a fair bit of gaming.

I'm 6'3" and weigh about 95kg (209lbs), so I'm on the large side - which is why I had both my 5'9" partner and 5'11" friend spend some time in the chair too, to get a properly rounded idea of how comfortable it is for different people.

We all tested out various positions for the headrest, armrests, and lumbar cushion, as well as seeing how comfortable the footrest and additional features were. I carefully documented their feedback and also took the time to read some product reviews on AutoFull's own website, to make sure there were no glaring issues with the M6 Ultra that I'd somehow missed in my own testing (and there weren't, so my pride remains intact).

• Finchetto develops photonic packet switch eliminating electronic control bottlenecks
• Dual-wavelength innovation enables optical routing without electronic memory slowdown
• Future-proof passive optics promise scalability beyond terabit network generations

Photonics chip startup Finchetto is working on an optical packet switch which could help hyperscale networks scale into the AGI era. The design could potentially switch data up to 1000 times faster, while using less power and remaining scalable for future network speeds.

At a basic level, a digital packet switch receives data on one port, reads the header stored in memory, and forwards the packet out through the right port. That is straightforward in electronics, but not in photonics.

The problem with an optical packet switch is that light cannot be stored. A light beam carrying a data packet cannot be paused while its header is read, so conventional designs revert to slower electronic processing.

Future-proof

Finchetto’s co-founder, Mike Pearcey, realized that the data and header could instead be transmitted on two separate wavelengths simultaneously.

One carries the payload, the other the destination, allowing the switch to route packets optically.

Finchetto CEO Mark Rushworth told Blocks & Files: "We’ve eliminated the electrical control signal, the rate limiter on how granular you can get your switching in the circuit switches. We’re talking tens of microseconds, reconfiguration time, others are looking at less than a microsecond reconfiguration time, but that’s not fast enough to do a hundred gig network even, which is fairly low small fry these days. By eliminating that electronic control signal that says; switch this way, switch that way; that’s taking tens of microseconds or hundreds of nanoseconds and replacing it with light controlling lights, we’ve reduced that switching time to low nanoseconds."

He added that the processing part of the switch “is actually taking those two parallel wavelengths and it is transposing the data onto the addressed wavelength. So only one wavelength comes out … on the destination wavelength, and then you have demultiplexer would send them out. Then you can physically get the data to the correct destination based on what wavelength it is on.”

Rushworth also stressed, “The packet remains integral as an Ethernet or Infiniband packet. Whatever protocol you’re using stays so that it can be understood at each end without any issues. We keep the same protocol that the system has.”

He argued the all-optical design is inherently future-proof: “At the moment, cutting edge is 800 gigabits per second. They’re pushing on 1.6 terabyte per second. In two, three years it’ll be 3.4 and so on. But because the switch is passive optics, it doesn’t matter what speed the signal comes in, because whatever the speed, we’ll pass it through.”

Finchetto is still in the early stages, with hurdles ahead including flow control in a bufferless optical system and completing the firmware, software, and management layers needed for a full network solution.

If successful, the company expects to have a lab-ready product within 12–18 months.

Hori Piranha Plant Camera for Nintendo Switch 2: review

The Hori Piranha Plant Camera for Nintendo Switch 2 is a peculiar, yet undeniably fun creation. It’s a webcam for Nintendo Switch 2 that’s modelled on the classic Super Mario enemy, Piranha Plant. You know, the one that rears its head from a pipe in an attempt to eat you whole.

This model is produced by video game accessory producer Hori, but licensed by Nintendo itself. Yes, it’s a lot more character-filled and extravagant than the official Switch 2 camera, but still, it costs a fair chunk less, coming with a list price of just $59.99 / £33.99 / AU$64.95. But why?

Well, before we get to that, I want to talk about this thing’s design – which is more unique than even the best webcams. Not only is it playful and perfect for any Nintendo fan, but it’s pretty well made too. It comes with a poseable stem to angle the webcam with, a leaf part – which you can attach to its stem – and a mouth that can be opened and closed to reveal or conceal the camera.

(Image credit: Future)

On top of that, there’s a plant pot, which can be kept closed and used as a stand, or opened to mount the plant on top of your monitor or TV. For the most part, I kept the pot closed, and connected it up to my Nintendo Switch 2 via the included USB-C cable. The open position wasn’t wide enough to fit on top of my TV, which I expect will be the case for a lot of users.

If you’re playing in handheld mode, you can plug the Piranha Plant into your Switch 2’s USB-C port directly, which makes it a highly versatile option. I also appreciated a 3.5mm right-angle adapter, which enables you to use one of the best Nintendo Switch headsets wired, without the leaf part obstructing your cable.

So far, it all looks very rosy for this lil’ plant. But we haven’t really addressed the key reason for that low price point yet. And it is, unfortunately, tied to performance. Yes, Hori’s Piranha Plant camera offers a 480p resolution, which would’ve been fine 20 years ago but, in 2025, it’s simply not good enough.

As you can imagine, 480p is highly restrictive, and the picture quality you get from this camera is poor. I tried playing some Mario Kart World with my friend, and details on my face and clothing were unclear, while colors lacked vibrancy and that true-to-life tone. On top of that, I tried sitting about one meter from my TV in docked mode, and my picture was extremely blurry. In fact, my face looked almost as if it was melting. Thankfully it wasn’t, but the Plant made me question that.

(Image credit: Future)

One thing I’ll commend the Piranha Plant on, though, is that it tracked my face fairly well. In Mario Kart World, a webcam can be used to show your face in a small circle on the results page, or alongside your character mid-race. Throughout, the Piranha Plant was able to keep me well-centered, even if the actual sharpness of my picture was lacking.

It’s worth noting that there aren’t all too many titles with webcam functionality right now. Yes, it adds a fun touch to Mario Kart World's online multiplayer, and it unlocks a few extra minigames in Mario Party Jamboree + Jamboree TV, but that's about it right now.

With that said, is it worth purchasing Hori’s Piranha Plant webcam? Well, its 480p resolution makes it impossible for me to recommend outright – that is unless you want to reminisce over the camera quality of the Nintendo DSi and 3DS.

And so ultimately, it matters not how much I adore the very sight of this dashing plant. For I cannot help but feel despair – no… anguish – over its tragic picture quality. It makes me wonder, then, how can we possibly reconcile two such polarising emotions for just one individual. Well, maybe we can’t. Maybe that conflict is, at its core, what makes this plant so intriguing. Its beauty is undeniable, yet so are its flaws. To buy it is to experience conflict in its rawest form.

You’re a big fan of Piranha Plant
Honestly, there’s a case to pick this lil’ guy up as a collectible, or a statement piece – rather than to use as your Switch 2 webcam. The Piranha Plant cam is well made and oozing with character, and it can add a splash of color to your TV unit or monitor.

You want a flexible design
I appreciate the versatility of the Piranha Plant webcam a whole lot. You can find the perfect angle for your living space using its poseable stem and L-shaped mount, and it can be used in either handheld mode, or in TV mode (using the mount or plant pot base).

Don't buy it if...

You value strong picture quality
Oh what could’ve been. See, this Piranha may look pretty neat on the outside, but on the inside, it’s not really equipped for peak performance. That’s due to its resolution being capped at 480p – the same as that of the DSi, which first released in 2008. Ouch.

You want an ultra-secure, highly versatile mount
The L-shaped mount on this webcam is good enough to sit on top of most monitors, and a good amount of slim TVs. Still, it’s not exactly the most secure mount I’ve used, and if you’ve got a chunkier TV, then it won’t be able to sit on top. You can instead place it inside the pot and on top of a TV unit, if the mount isn’t working out, of course.

Hori Piranha Plant Camera for Nintendo Switch 2: also consider

Nintendo Switch 2 Camera
Well, I’ll be honest, there aren’t too many Switch-2-oriented competitors out there right now, so if you’re not sold on this plant creature, I’d just suggest picking up the official Nintendo Switch 2 Camera. It offers far higher picture quality, thanks to its 1080p resolution, and even if that’s the only reason to pick it over this model, it’s a pretty major one!

How I tested the Hori Piranha Plant Camera for Nintendo Switch 2

(Image credit: Future)

• Tested for one week
• Used at home in handheld and TV mode
• Predominantly tested while playing Mario Kart World

I tested the Hori Piranha Plant Camera for a week, using it as the primary camera for my Nintendo Switch 2. During this period, I used the camera in both handheld and docked mode, with my console connected to the Sky Glass Gen 2 television and Samsung HW-Q800D soundbar.

There aren’t all too many titles that support camera functionality on the Nintendo Switch 2 just yet, so for the most part, I tested this model’s picture quality on Mario Kart World. To do this, I entered GameChat with my Future colleague, Nikita, and assessed the quality of my picture from various distances.
