EISA, the European Imaging & Sound Association (www.eisa.eu) announces the winners of its 2016-2017 European Awards. Technical experts from 45 leading specialist magazines across 23 European countries have voted 59 products best in their category, including EUROPEAN SMART TV, EUROPEAN LOUDSPEAKER, EUROPEAN TRAVEL COMPACT CAMERA and EUROPEAN MOBILE HEADPHONES.

For more than 30 years, EISA has been selecting the most innovative, cutting-edge products for its prestigious EISA Awards. The Awards are made by specialist judging panels covering the full spectrum of consumer electronics and photographic categories including, Audio & Home Theatre, In-Car Electronics, Photo, Video and Mobile Devices (full list of awards at end of press release). A key to EISA Awards success has been its ability to evolve with the changing trends and technologies in the consumer electronics world, which is why categories include VR HEADSET and ULTRA HD PLAYER.

To win an EISA award, products undergo a robust, rigorous and exhaustive judging process involving two challenging stages. First, products are intensively tested at the test facilities of EISA member magazines. Products that pass this stage are already amongst the best in Europe. The second stage takes place at EISA’s annual General Meeting, where a democratic voting process establishes a pan-European consensus of excellence and determines the winning products. (For more information, see “About EISA” below).

This year’s winners include:

EUROPEAN ADVANCED SMARTPHONE 2016-2017: HTC 10

EUROPEAN SMART TV 2016-2017: LG UH770V

EUROPEAN DSLR CAMERA 2016-2017: Canon EOS 80D

EISA Award-winning products can be promoted with an exclusive EISA Award logo, providing a clear visual buying recommendation.

Paul Miller, President of EISA says, “The collaboration of some 45 specialist magazines from across Europe brings with it a unique pool of experience that informs each and every EISA Award. So whether consumers are looking to purchase a feature-rich Smartphone, a versatile camera solution of a pair of high-end floorstanding loudspeakers, the EISA Awards are their unequivocal guide to the cream of today’s entertainment technologies.”

The EISA Awards will be officially presented during IFA, the world’s largest consumer electronics fair, held in Berlin 2-7 September 2016 (see “About EISA” for more details)
