The Secretlab Magnus Evo is a dual-motor, electric standing desk that offers many of the "Pro" features of its predecessor at a more approachable price. Starting at $749 without accessories, it’s still a serious investment, but its sleek, less "gamer-focused" aesthetic allows it to work just as well in a professional home office as it does in a game room.
The most significant departure from the Secretlab Magnus Pro — which I consider one of the best gaming desks overall — is the desktop itself. Instead of an all-metal surface, the Evo features a two-tone top with a soft-touch, ultra-matte laminate finish. Additionally, while the Pro integrates a massive full-length cable tray into its frame, the Evo uses a smaller version that attaches to the underside. More importantly, the Evo retains a full-length metal edge at the back along with its metal legs and frame, which makes it compatible with Secretlab’s existing ecosystem of magnetic cable management accessories.
