I like the SquareOff Pro, but I don't like that they lock some features behind a subscription paywall. This might be a dealbreaker for some people.

@whiggi 3 месяца назад

i dont think anyone should be paying a subscription to use the features of a product they have already purchased. good luck with your choice selection. If you have any more questions feel free to reach out!

I like the look of wooden chess pieces but I love the plastic ones too, the ones I’ve grown up playing was plastic pieces, recently got my first magnetic chess set that comes with plastic pieces too

@whiggi 27 дней назад

I just got a magnetic eboard as well (you can check it out on the main page, unboxing and review videos, just posted it a few minutes ago) I also grew up on the plastic pieces. These days though the top boards play with the DGT wood ones, and.. I really want to get to those top boards thats why it was the Chessnut Pro for me :) I got to the top board and went against an IM... I've never made it back to the top board :D

@ContactGaming1 20 дней назад

Good comparison and I hope people who want such a product enjoy. Me? I’m happy with a green/white mat and plastic pieces.

I'm interested in what you are using for a rotating base. Where did you get it, and do you like it? Thank you!

@misaeltoledo7080 4 месяца назад

I had a the same question, thanks! Awesome review!

@samuecchi 4 месяца назад

So how does promotion work in the SquareOff Pro? Does it assume I want a queen every time or can I choose between a knight or a queen?

@whiggi 4 месяца назад

on the square off you have to take our your phone and select the promotion piece after placing the pawn on the square on chessnut pro it automatically detects the piece placed

@hetenbliksem 5 месяцев назад

With the DGT e-boards you don't have to turn the board for a rematch, you just can set up the pieces on the other side of the board to start a new game. Can you check if this is also possible with the Chessnut Pro board please?

@whiggi 5 месяцев назад

ill have a look tomorrow and get back to you :)

@whiggi 5 месяцев назад

So Vsing the AI you do not need to rotate the board. Played a game with the pieces set up and the board adjusted to the way I had it, then did a second game with the pieces on the other side and it recognised it

@whiggi 5 месяцев назад

Also just tested on chesscom by putting the pieces on the wrong side, when the game started the board recognised and corrected the piece placement :)

@hetenbliksem 5 месяцев назад

@@whiggi Thanks for the quick reply. So basically you don't need this device to spin the board? Can you please also check if this works when playing games over the board with someone face to face, to record the games. When I first got my DGT Smartboard I used to turn the big board each time when playing a rematch. I was happy to find out that this is not necessary with the DGT-eboards.

@whiggi 5 месяцев назад

@@hetenbliksem still need the device if you are playing a random colour, as it will lock in the pieces I believe. Will test tonight

@wincoffin7985 5 месяцев назад

Now how about a review of the upcoming Chessnut Evo? I have it on order, very excited about it! Seems to be the next level of electronic chess sets.

@whiggi 5 месяцев назад

I did consider getting the Evo, however as I wanted something with a more tournament feel I went for the Pro. If i can get my hands on one ill def take a serious look at it :)

@erikbetancourt7194 2 месяца назад

I like the square off. Its easy to carry and most of the rime i play with others in person. And if no one is around, ill play the ai. But was thinking about the chessbut pro for home use. The square off kingdom is too small for me.

@whiggi 2 месяца назад

the chessnut pro is perfect for home use, as you stated the squareoff has its advantage for movement, but i highly recommend the chessnut pro :) good tournament size

@eusie59 3 месяца назад

I really think the Square off pro sucks. And Chessnut just keep having issues.

@whiggi 3 месяца назад

The Square off had me excited for a few days but now with its latest paypals it lives rolled up in the closet. I personally havent had any issues with Chessnut

@your_average_joe5781 5 месяцев назад

I enjoyed your video review ✅. With that being said, most people can't justify almost $1000 dollars for a chess set. That price is ridiculous 😂. I'm sure it's a nice product though 👍

@whiggi 5 месяцев назад

Very true. Its definetely on the high end. They also have chessnut Air which is... maybe over half the price less? Not entirely sure. I have had my eye on a nice chess set that I could be proud of, thats a great display piece (none of those folding sets, or sets where you store pieces underneath) and I had been toying with the idea of forking out around that much for well over a year :) Also thank you, glad you enjoyed the review :)

@jakobmusic9187 Месяц назад

I like the Chessnut pro board but it is sooo pricey.

@whiggi Месяц назад

Yes it is on the premium side of things.. still i would highly recommend the investment vs something of lower quality which is just collecting dust (my square off pro for example). i plan on keeping the chessnut on display for many many years and have had alot of use out of it... but i agree its definitely on the higher side when it comes to eboards. i do have the affiliate code which I think gets you somewhere between 12 and 15% off all chessnut products, code WHIGGI. ive been eyeing off the air for awhile that might be a better entry point for you

@evansviller Месяц назад

@joannalewis5279 5 месяцев назад

Good review but I hate these products functionally and aesthetically

@whiggi 5 месяцев назад

thank you for the nice feedback :) shame you dont like these ones, i quite like the look and feel of the chessnut one. Any particular sets you do like?

@americanojoel 5 месяцев назад

In my opinion, the Chestnut Pro IS technically and aesthetically superior to any other brand of e-board available. The DGT and the Millennium boards may be prettier, but they require several add-ons (blue tooth and engines) to do what Chessnut (and even Square off) can do with each of the boards built-in technology. DGT and Millennium became complacent with their niche, and while their boards are prettier, their technology is inferior.

Forget the SuareOff, it's a scam company.

@fragslap5229 2 месяца назад

I don't understand. I downloaded Stockfish for FREE and play it all the time on my laptop. WHY would I want to mess with either of these products? If I wanted to be "3-D" I could just buy a cheap chess set and copy what's shown on the computer screen.
