Is the DeLonghi Magnifica Evo better than Philips LatteGo?

Not universally — the better pick depends on what you value most.

• Pick the De'Longhi Magnifica Evo if you want a machine that often feels more traditional in use and may appeal more if you care about espresso/milk texture over simplicity.
• Pick the Philips LatteGo if you want the easiest cleaning and lower day-to-day maintenance. Its LatteGo milk system is designed to rinse quickly, and Philips’ AquaClean system is meant to reduce how often descaling is needed.

Bottom line:

• Best for convenience: Philips LatteGo
• Best for espresso/milk feel: De'Longhi Magnifica Evo

One caveat: both lines have multiple versions, and features can vary by exact model, so check the specific machine before buying.
