Secretlab Launches Magnus Evo, a Cheaper Sit-Stand Desk Built for Cable Management

Secretlab positions the Evo as a cable-first alternative to the Pro at a $749 starting price.

Overview

  • The Magnus Evo debuts with redesigned cable controls, including a drop-down tray for easier access and an integrated power column intended to leave a single cable to the wall.
  • Hands-on testing from Tom's Hardware notes a new assembly approach with side extension panels that introduce visible seams but allow users to choose which leg handles the wall plug.
  • Secretlab replaces the Pro's magnetic desktop mats with a smooth ultra-matte surface, shifting magnetic cable anchoring to a reinforced strip at the rear.
  • The desk retains sit-to-stand controls, a magnetic front headphone hook, and compatibility with existing Magnus add-ons such as monitor arms, risers, and under-desk PC mounts.
  • Two lengths are offered at launch (1.5 m and 1.77 m), with UK pricing starting at £599, and broader reviews beyond initial hands-on impressions are still forthcoming.
