The 2026 Real Relax Favor-06 isn’t just a yearly refresh—it feels like the product team finally asked, “How do we make a massage chair smarter without making it complicated?”
And somehow, they nailed it.

If you’re curious about what’s new or deciding whether this upgraded version is worth bringing home, here’s a friendly walk-through of the standout features—especially the headliners Real Relax added for 2026.

Heart Rate & Oxygen Detection: Real-Time Wellness Check

This feature is the star of the upgrade, and it’s surprisingly simple to use.

You sit down, hit the prompt, gently press the multi-functional button with your middle finger for about 20 seconds, and boom—your heart rate and blood oxygen pop up on the screen.

What’s cool is that the system actually pauses for a few seconds after the reading so you can see your numbers clearly before the massage continues.

Why does this matter?

Because wellness isn’t a guesswork thing anymore. Your massage session can adjust based on how your body is doing. If you start your session with a high heart rate from a stressful day, you’ll know it. If you’re chilling at a low resting heart rate, you’ll see that too. It’s a small detail with a big real-world impact.

This is the kind of upgrade people didn’t realize they wanted until they tried it.

Phone/Tablet Screen Scrolling Controlled by a Knob

This is the second feature people talk about immediately—and honestly, it’s one of the most practical.

While you’re reclined and fully settled into a massage, holding up a phone or tablet isn’t always comfortable. Real Relax added a scrolling knob on the shortcut control panel so you can simply:

‣ Slide the knob up or down → scroll your screen vertically

‣ Short press → switch to horizontal scrolling

‣ And that’s it.

No weird finger stretching. No pressure on your shoulders. No dropping your phone on your face (which we’ve all done at some point).

It sounds like a small upgrade, but when you’re mid-massage and your hands are relaxed, being able to scroll your playlist, podcast feed, TikTok—anything—without lifting your arm feels like it should’ve always existed.

Multi-Functional Buttons: Much More Than a Pause Button

This button cluster got a major update. It’s now basically the “quick control center” for everything you need without opening the LCD screen.

Here’s what these buttons can do:

‣ Pause or resume the massage

‣ Adjust the reclining angle (hold up or down)

‣ Trigger heart rate & oxygen detection

‣ Control the phone/tablet scrolling knob

‣ Clear device/Bluetooth connections

Once you get used to these buttons, you barely touch the touchscreen anymore. It’s convenient, intuitive, and honestly makes the chair feel more high-end.

If your arms are resting comfortably on the sides, you can change your entire setup without breaking the relaxation.

Zero Gravity: That Floating Feeling Still Hits Different

Zero gravity isn’t new, but it’s still one of the features people buy massage chairs for.
Favor-06 reclines your back and raises your legs until the body is in a comfort-balanced posture that takes weight off your spine.

This position makes the massage feel deeper and more effective. You’re basically floating, and the rollers can work your back with even pressure.

Full-Body Airbags for That Gentle Squeeze

The chair is wrapped with strategically placed airbags—shoulders, arms, hips, calves, and feet.
When they inflate, you get this full-body compression that feels grounding and relaxing. Compression is especially great for circulation, post-work fatigue, or long hours standing.

In manual mode, you can even pick the exact area and pressure level.

Back Heating for That Warm, Melt-Away Sensation

Warmth in the lower back area makes a huge difference, especially in cooler months or after sitting at a desk all day.

The heating modules help with stiffness, circulation, and muscle relaxation, giving the rollers a softer canvas to work on.

SL-Track and 3D Robot Hand for More Precise Massage

Favor-06 uses an SL-track, meaning the massage rollers follow your spine from the neck all the way down past the lower back into the hips.

Pair that with the upgraded 3D robot hand, and you get:

‣ multiple depth levels

‣ smart body tracking

‣ human-like kneading, tapping, shiatsu, knocking and combo techniques

The scanning system makes sure the rollers aren’t guessing—they’re mapped to your height, shoulder position and back shape.

6 Auto Programs That Match Different Needs

Real Relax kept the auto programs simple and helpful. You can pick:

• Relax (A1) — light, calming, easy

• Chinese (A2) — acupressure-inspired

• Thai (A3) — stretching focus

• Recovery (A4) — after workouts

• Strong (A5) — for deep pressure lovers

• Sleep (A6) — slow and gentle

Each lasts 15 minutes, and in Sleep mode, the chair stays in the comfortable recline so you don’t get jolted back upright.

Manual Modes for Complete Control

If you’re picky about massage styles, this chair has a full manual panel:

• 6 techniques (Knead, Knock, Slap, Shiatsu, combos)

• Adjustable roller width

• 5 intensity levels

• Adjustable airbag pressure

• Backrest up/down

• Massage position selection

This lets you fine-tune everything—neck only, lower back only, shoulder focus, you name it.

Foot Rollers + Extendable Footrest

The foot rollers have three intensity levels and can be turned on or off quickly.
And the adjustable footrest means the chair accommodates different leg lengths—great if people of different heights share the chair.

LCD Touch Screen + App Control

The interface is clean and simple.

You can control everything from the screen or leave it aside and use the RealRelax Smart app.

The app is especially handy for families—everyone can save their preferred setups or quickly start their favorite mode without finding the remote.

How to use APP to control the upgraded Favor 06 massage chairs

Bluetooth Speakers + Phone Holder

A massage feels better with your music, and Favor-06 has built-in Bluetooth speakers plus a phone holder so your device stays within reach without sliding around.

The upgraded Real Relax Favor-06 feels like a chair built around one idea: comfort without complication.

The new wellness monitoring, the scrolling knob and the multi-functional buttons genuinely improve day-to-day use—not just on paper, but in actual, real-life convenience.

If you're looking for a massage chair that blends smart features with thoughtful ergonomics and easy operation, this version of the Favor-06 stands out. It’s techy in the ways that matter and simple in the ways you need.
