CONCLUSION
The Arena Gaming Desk by Arozzi may be the most exciting gaming peripheral in the market today but still it’s a very interesting product not only because of its rather large size for a gaming desk (160cm long, 82cm wide and up to 81cm tall) and the huge and thick mouse pad but also because of its sturdy construction. Of course much like with anything else the only way to really know just how sturdy and durable it is will be to use it for many years and so for now we can just speculate based on what we see and what Arozzi says about it. Overall we’ve enjoyed using the Arena Gaming Desk for the past 2 months but we think it could be better. For example Arozzi could sell it with one, two or three monitor arms in the bundle (for a reduced price of course compared to getting them separately), with ambient lights which people aiming to use it with their PC/TV screens will probably find very useful (some will most likely also want RGB lights to come with it since after all this is the Golden era of RGB lighting) and why not with an even better cable management solution than the bottom net. The sky is really the limit here so since sales have also been good I’m positive Arozzi may already be planning to release a second gaming desk soon enough.
So how much does Arozzi ask for their Arena Gaming Desk? Well currently you can find the Arena Gaming Desk for USD401.92 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and for 299Euros inside the EU (directly from Arozzi) a price tag which is quite balanced especially in the EU (obviously shipping fees up the price in the US). Overall the Arena offers at least most of the things one would expect from a Gaming Desk (feels somewhat basic in design but we’re certain Arozzi will improve on that if they make more), there’s still room for improvement of course but for a first try Arozzi has done quite well and their product is certainly worth our Golden Award.
