That market playing games is one of the main props of the PC world it is indisputable. At a time when PC sales seem to be declining, partly due to the economic situation, but also due to the slow but progressive shift of tasks traditionally associated with computers to other devices, playing games has become a consumer market, to paraphrase Morrisey «A light that never goes out«. And Evnia is a clear example of this.

And why do I say it applies to everyone? Because Evnia is not a family of products, it is not a line of devicesno, we are talking about a brand of its own, with its own structure, and while it obviously takes elements from Philips, it is looking for its own entity from the beginning, which is defined by the statement of intent contained in this manifesto, in which what we traditionally expect from a brand playersocial location is added, which given the controversy we’ve had in the gaming world for many years, we can’t say it’s pointless.

The main role of the presentation event thus undoubtedly fell to the Kenyan Sylvia Gathoni, better known as Queen Arrowa professional eSports competitor (she is part of the XiT Gaming team and is and is a member of the Global Esports Federation) specializing in Tekken and who has long-term invested her international importance in the services of promoting the world of games in her Kenya and in her Kenya. hometown, as a design for the future for the youngest in their communities, support and involvement in local initiatives.

How can gaming devices promote diversity? This is probably the most repeated question, because after all we are talking about monitors, keyboards, mice, headphones and pads, objects that over the years, although with evolution and nuances, share many common design elements. At the moment, Evnia’s design is visually attractive and at the same time, at least at first glance, completely neutral, with white, black and LED lighting and a less aggressive design than we can see in other brands’ products.

The main contribution in this sense is not so much the design (although the manifesto was taken into account when designing it), as per the message associated with their devices and brand. This obviously leads to an eternal debate between those who believe that these messages add up and those who see them as simple pictorial actions. Personally, in these cases I think that the messages add up, if so, the companies’ actions are consistent with them. In this regard, Evnia is a newborn, so she has all the necessary skills to do things right from the start.

Evnia: performance, versatility and sustainability

«Performance, universal and welcome, sustainable» there were three points highlighted during the presentation that underpin the design of the ecosystem of devices that will make up the different Evnia product families, which will be as follows:

So, as we can verify, we can understand it its entry level is the 3000 series, although everything indicates that it will not be particularly cheap devices, that is, that it will be their entry level, but that it may not be in the general entry segment. Next we find The 5000 series as a middle ground of your menu and at the top of the table are framed 7000 and 8000 series, with the top of the range from Eunia.

However, it is important to be clear its arrival on the market will take place gradually. The first of the monitors to hit the market will be the 34M2C7600MV, which will be introduced in December next year. Three more screens will then arrive in January, models 42M2N8900, 34M2C8600 and 27M2C5500W, and keyboards, mice, headphones and pads are expected to arrive in the medium term from June next year. New high-performance screens will also be added later.

A very interesting aspect of Evnia to do with the software is that its design involves use the only software solution for managing profiles of all devices, as a differential element allows you to store them in the cloudsomething that allows us both to restore them if we use some of our devices in another system, and to have a backup of them in case of a failure of our system that prevents us from restoring them locally.

With Evnia, Philips proposes, at least a priori, a new and interesting proposal for the world of games, with a profile that differs from what has existed so farand with products that, both with regard to their specifications and the tests we were able to perform during their presentation, aim to offer a gaming experience insurance premium. You can do it? Part with good wicker and good ideas, now we will have to wait and see what time will tell.
