Hey, Chris here, and today I'm taking a look at this Chestnut Air Electronic Chess Set
0:05
And I was sent this for the purpose of this review, but I'm going to go ahead and give my honest first impressions and opinion of it
0:11
And I was actually really excited about this because I recently started getting into a chest
0:16
And right here, this is what it ends up looking like. It's nicely packed
0:22
All right, so here it is. And wow, that looks nice. So first thing we're gonna get is this quick starter guide
0:30
And then here's gonna be all the pieces black and white and then in the center here
0:36
We're gonna have the actual powering cable and it's gonna be USB C. Here's what the Queens look like
0:45
And then the bottom side right there the bottom has like a soft
0:50
foam type of piece And then when I press it, it feels like it's popping a little bit
0:55
And now just lifting this up. And here the chessboard itself So all I have to do is pull this and it goes ahead and pops right up and this definitely does have some weight to it It made out of little wood material and yeah this definitely does look does
1:16
look quality over here. I do like the fact that the edges over here are
1:20
slightly raised and then right here there's all these white little dots and
1:27
And this is going to go ahead and be where it lights up. So when the pieces are moved, I'll go ahead and light up and then indicate where it moved to
1:33
Or if you accidentally moved a piece, it'll light up. And then here's what the back looks like
1:39
And it does have on all four corners these soft pieces just so this doesn't get scratched
1:45
And then on this side here, this is where all the electronic parts are located
1:52
So let me go ahead and get this set up and see how it works. There, the board's all set up
1:56
And the good part is you get an extra piece, which is going to be the queens
2:00
And here's a better look at the board. This one of course is going to be the power button But this second button over here that a plus that going to be for a new game Then this little itty bitty thing here that going to be to reset the game
2:14
Right here is the buzzer, so this is where the speaker, so it'll go ahead and sound when there's a new game
2:19
or it's connected or disconnected to Bluetooth, or if the king's being attacked
2:24
The logo, and of course right here this is where it's going to go ahead and power up, and this will indicate if it's powered on
2:30
This will indicate if Bluetooth is connected to it. And this refers to the game status
2:34
Now the next thing to do would be to go to step two and scan the QR code so you can download the Chestnut Air app
2:42
Alright, so now I finished downloading the app. Now I'm going to go ahead and turn it on. And I can turn on the board too by just holding this button right here
2:55
Alright, now it's green and it'll end up beeping. And right here, here's my phone
2:59
I'll go ahead and connect it to Bluetooth. Chestnut playing there. Would you like to use Bluetooth
3:03
Okay. Now it's connecting. There. Now it's all connected. So I just want to go ahead and start a match So play game Let see Choose mode So computer or friends Variant standard or chess 960 Side random White Black So I want to be white side
3:20
AI level. I'll just keep it to one. Time mode. Real time. And let's see. Minimums. Yeah. 10
3:27
minutes is fine. And start game. And they're all right. So the timer immediately starts
3:32
white side on my side and let's see how uh quick it goes ahead in response to when i move a piece
3:38
here on the board so let me move king's pawn and actually that was pretty quick it went ahead and
3:43
rendered that and then right here the ai went ahead and moved this piece here and it actually
3:48
does go ahead and glow too so i know where to move each piece and there now it's my turn so i'll just
3:55
right there and it moves it pretty instantly and then again it shows me
4:02
which piece to move yeah this is really cool I'm really excited to go ahead and actually
4:07
play this with my uncle, with my aunt because I like playing chess and yeah
4:12
if you're looking for a bluetooth chess set then this is something I can recommend
