Cheers David! Very kind words! I see no benefit in being biased as it is misleading. Consumers will be quick to correct you so you need to be objective and honest. I do like Simagic products though. They seem to be making a lot of great hardware and challenging the norm. They’re actually surpassing many household names in sim racing and making themselves relevant. Pretty exciting times.
@@LaurenceDusoswa I agree wholeheartedly with your assessment, and that is the exact type of thinking that we value, to just get rid of all preconceptions and take a clear look at the products in front of you.
@@LaurenceDusoswa did you actually setup the shifter thru the simagic software? There is a video showing how to setup the shifter right so that may cause the miss shift?
The shifter seems nice quality and used materials, the meaty and loud click is probably really immersive when playing - however, the loudness could probably also be an immediate problem for some people where noise is a concern and seems like there's no good in-between to achieve here. There's not much you can expect out of a sequential shifter and it seems most of them out there meet the expectations, so it's really easy to nitpick on the smaller things, and this shifter seems to have a handful. The gear display is cool and the fact it doesn't rely on software seems like great idea at first, but one mis-shift later, it's all out of sync with no quick way to fix it. Additionally it's also in a place you never look at during a race, so you can't even get any information out of it, you just drive with the knowledge in your head that there's a little gear display you can't see and it's definitely out of sync - seems like ocd nightmare 😂 No display at all would probably be a better choice, or even better - have one or two buttons more in its place. It's a shame about the fourth button that you can't bind as well. Overall seems like it's still a great sequential shifter that gets the basics right and it tries to offer a little bit more than others, but with a bit odd result.
All great observations! I have played with the adjustment and I think I’m able to find a good middle ground now. Thanks for your amazing comment yet again. I genuinely feel that comments like yours carry a huge amount of weight and really help people to make their own decisions. It encourages discussion and often shows that my opinions are just that, and may not be the same as everyone else’s. More opinions makes for more informed decisions :)
Having the additional buttons is what appeals to me most with this shifter. Means I could set my permanent buttons on the shifter and not have to worry about the different layouts when I switch wheels. Also the double USB, one of the things I dislike about the Newt is the placement of the USB port, I'm always hitting the lead sticking out of the side of it.
Yeah it is super handy for resetting to the pits or lights or whatever. The USB ports are handy but could still be placed better I feel. It’s a really cool product
Great review. I really wish the gear indicator light was in sync with the game and you could map the neutral button as neutral and the other program button as hazard lights. I think it would be helpful getting back on the road after a crash. I think I really want this anyway, it's so cool. Thanks for the video
Yeah the sync thing is a real problem unfortunately :( the idea is really cool and if you never mis-shift, you won’t notice any issues. But I encountered the issue almost instantly. It’s a super cool bit of kit and the innovation being shown here is very very welcome.
Looks like a nice piece of hardware! That screen looked like a gimic, but it really is bad that it desynchs. I think we had a chat in VC with some of the guys about maybe it fully glowing bright red when you hit the rev limit? That you can maybe see it glowing red? Currently it's just one of those things that look cool when you buy the product, but then you would never pay attention to it. Otherwise great build quality and everything. And as always: great editing, great position of shots and framing!
Thanks so much! The new camera equipment is definitely helping! I will relay the feedback. A simhub interface would be amazing. Then you could customise as much as you want. The build quality is incredible
When ever you do the full review, it would be nice to know if you can plug it into the Simagic wheel base to save a USB spot on the PC. Thanks again for you videos and will soon have the same shift setup as you.
Cracking review :) Looks like a lovely peice of kit, and all the functional stuff looks top notch! shame about the gear indicator desyncing, I know it's there purely for show but just knowing it could be wrong would annoy me haha
I bought one 8ths ago. It gets used most days for less than an hour per session. (Probably about max 2 hours per week use). It stopped functioning, Ie the mechanical gear element of it stopped working in downshifts. The supplier has told me to send it back to be repaired, not replaced.
Just a couple tips: Adjustment is done via the center bolt, using an Allen key. The jam nut and cylinder housing should remain untouched. You can also reverse/flip the LCD display, for users who want to mount the shifter 180 degrees from your setup. When connected to the Can-Bus port on the wheelbase, the shifter will power ON and OFF with the base unit. A setup guide can be found here: ruclips.net/video/2Pgse71daT4/видео.html Thanks for the review.
Hey man! Cheers! This isn’t a review, it’s a first impressions “thinking out loud” style video to show my thoughts rather than give actual information. I’ll try to adjust it with a hex key. Flipping the orientation is possible yeah. I can’t see anyone running it in flipped orientation though as the buttons and screen become somewhat obstructed by the lever and not as accessible. I’m yet to try it in that orientation so could be wrong. Can-bus makes no real difference for me because my wheelbase never turns off either. The power switch is in an awkward place on the mains adapter. I need to buy the emergency stop, really. Thanks for the detail as usual!
I love this shifter but purchased it for £300 from a friend who had it less than a 4 months and used it maybe a few times so was like new. The main reason for getting it was down too its feel but more than that was the look. The leds buttons and the led screen even if not useful it still looks great with my triple screen set up and all my led button boxes and led button cube control wheels so fits in perfectly.
Yeah it’s really nice. I’m glad to see some innovation and a company trying to do something different while still producing a very very good sequential shifting experience.
Thanks for this first look LD. I am still very interested in this even with the syncing issue. I currently use the Aiologs sequential shifter, do you think it’s worth the upgrade. I’m very happy with them but sometimes wish for a bit more tactile click and feeling. Love from Canada eh!
The feedback is incredible! Syncing issue may be solved with software in future :) I don’t have enough experience with the aiologs to advise you to be honest 😅
Hi nice review but I think your not supposed to loosen the big nut to adjust the tension. It looks like a spring ball plunger that you should just use a hex key to adjust it with.
Yeah I’ll try that. I didn’t want to go into too much detail and only really watched the little setup guide which doesn’t show the tension adjustment. At least, I didn’t come across it :) this wasn’t a review. This was an first impressions view through the eye of someone who just bought one, rather than an informational or factual review. That’s coming in a few weeks when I have used it extensively ;)
@Jonas correct you just use the provided Alan key too turn in or out the grub screw and that is where the plastic white ball goes where you would need to put the one they gave us as a spare.
no, at the quietest setting it is just a spring that returns it to center. you'll get a clunk at the end of the travel where it hits the bump stop but you wont get the nice mechanism that makes it feel like your shift did something
Curious if you still own this, and if they've fixed any of the issues, I came after searching for a way to add haptic feedback to my HE Ultimate + Pedals after missing them, like you, from my CSL V3's. I appreciate the honest first impressions... Curious if SimMagic ever managed to fiix this? Also, can this be used as your only simmagic product?
yes they have addressed the screen issues. I have a long term review on the way in the coming months. I've just been swamped with other reviews lately. This can be used as a standalone USB product in combination with any other products and brands.
@Laurence Dusoswa you need to make a comment as your were making a mistake which could lead too problems for people. At the end when you show undoing the nut to give more or less tension was wrong. Your not supposed too undo that nut and turn the whole thing you should you the big silver Alan key they provided and you just move the grub screw in and out for tension. You also got a plastic white ball if you take the grub screw out that is where the ball would go when the first one fails. Just thought you needed to know as this could lead people to mess the mechanism up. Cheers
This is just a first impressions video and loosening that whole bolt does no harm. I actually do it all the time to change the loudness of the shifter. Thanks though :)
I would Love to try one out and review it but the companies need to be interested in sending me one. It helps when people contact companies and ask them to send me one for review.
Not sure why they made the N Button mappable and then add the gear led lol. Makes no sense. Why not make the Nutral hold the guarded button down for say 5 seconds? Otherwise everytime you use that button your gear indicator will set the gear screen to N makes no sense
@@LaurenceDusoswa I actually meant a side plate. Because at the moment it takes a huge chunk of the prime slot against the profile. And with a h shifter it really is a compromise. I know there is a better way but the th8a came awkward. Simagic is solid as a rock but it would be nice to have options.
This thing is amazing but there's no H pattern big deal breaker for me H pattern is all i use Moza hgp for the foreseeable future for me then there are nicer ones but like 750-1000
I would love to but it depends on a couple of things. Firstly, they’re not actually out yet. And secondly, I would need a company to send me a set as I cannot afford to buy all the hardware I review :) these videos make about €20 for 10,000 views so it simply wouldn’t make economic sense to buy all the hardware I review 😂 this is a hobby for me. You can help by asking your distributor or the companies who make products, to send me a review sample. Thanks!
@@LaurenceDusoswa You've got to see what I mean... Its like comparing Porsche 911 to a Fiat Punto , yeah effectively the same thing...but... well...you know.. As far as experience goes...I teach the apprentices who do a large portion of the machining on the Pro Sim Quaife system....The Simagic stuff started out with a less than stellar brand image, which I feel will be hard to shift.
Don’t let price be your gauge for how good something is. If I was to receive both units unbranded and unpriced, I would struggle to tell you which is worth more.
@@LaurenceDusoswa Price has zero interest to me tbh, I have a range of sim equipment, from PRE wheels, Ascher wheels to Motomec wheels, HE shifters to 3D printed shifters, I like the £60 Motomec wheel more than the Ascher one..
It's a shame the simagic products are so well made materials wise....but the programming or the final fine tuning is never present. They can make this product so much higher value with just a few small tweaks. Almost as if they have a consistent oversight

That amount of noise would bug the crap out of me. It need some sort of damper so you can lower the noise but keep the feel.
