BenQ ScreenBar Halo 2 LED Monitor Light Bar, Wireless Controller, Adjustable Brightness & Colour Temperature, Eye-Care Light Bar, No Screen Glare, Space Saving, USB Powered

I hesitated at full price, but when the BenQ ScreenBar Halo dropped to £125, it felt worth a try. After a few weeks of use, I’m glad I picked it up. Fit was my first concern. I’m using it on a Samsung Odyssey G9, and it clamps securely without putting pressure on the screen or interfering with the curve. Setup took minutes. The lighting itself is excellent. It does a great job of evenly lighting the desk without glare on the screen. The control wheel is intuitive, letting you quickly adjust brightness and colour temperature from cool white to warm white, with plenty of range at both ends. Small changes are easy to dial in, which makes a difference during long work sessions. One feature I didn’t expect to care about, but now really like, is the motion sensor. Walking up to the desk and having the light turn on feels oddly satisfying and genuinely useful. You can also control the rear ambient light and the downward desk light independently, so you can run either one on its own or both together depending on the mood or time of day. Overall, the BenQ ScreenBar Halo brought a noticeable quality-of-life improvement to my setup. It’s not cheap, but if you spend a lot of time at your desk and can grab it on a deal, it feels like money well spent.

Love it. I work from home in my basement, so there is no natural light. The overhead lights are too bright and I can look quite ghastly on video calls (or more ghastly!) with them on. This light is remarkably bright and easily illuminates my whole desk. The backlight is an exceptional idea, removing any contrast in light and making it easier for my eyes. Everything is well made and solid, even the remote control that sits on the desk. Not sure I could do without this light now ... it's well worth the price if you regularly spend time on the computer.

Excellent bit of kit. Pricey, yes, but fits my 32” screen perfectly. Love the automatic on / off sensor. Has plenty of customisation too, with the backlight, brightness and different temperature of lighting. The puck helps you control this with ease. Definitely recommend.

I work from home full time and this has been brilliant - much better than my previous monitor light bar. It's easy to install, is solid as a rock and it really helps my eyes when it gets darker. I love the rear light and the remote puck is excellent too.

I'd been thinking about buying a screen bar for a while and finally went for it when this one was reduced during the Black Friday sales. I work from home during the day and do a lot of photo/video editing during the evening, so spend a lot of hours staring at my screen. My eyes are often tired after so many hours sat at my desk and this has made a big difference to reduce eye strain, especially when using my computer in the evening. Unsurprisingly, it fits my BenQ screen perfectly although I'm sure it will fit most other screens just as well as the mounting foot is adjustable. Quality is very good and it was easy to set up - plugging in to a USB-C port to power it. The wireless puck is easy to use and hasn't required recharging yet even after a couple of months of use. I was slightly worried that I'd be distracted by the glow from the light or reflections, however that really isn't a problem. I went for the Halo 2 over the cheaper version as it has a proximity sensor to switch on when I sit at my desk as well as a rear light to illuminate the wall behind the monitor. So far though I haven't used either. I prefer it without the rear light (although this is just personal preference), but it's nice to have the option of both if I need it - it's easy to select front only, rear only or both with a touch of a button on the puck. The proximity sensor is great - until your cat walks in front of it at 3am and wakes you up as the light switches on. So I quickly disabled that.

I've always struggled to find a decent light for my computer desk, and this light bar turns out to be exactly what I've been looking for all along! It's probably better for flat monitors, but I managed to get it working on my 57" curve monitor with a bit of white tack. There's a tiny bit of light bouncing off the bottom bezel in my config (more on that later) but all in all I'm quite happy to have bought it! The range of temperature and brightness is great, I have my desk against the window so ofter have the blinds shut and this provides a good amount of light that I need to keep my eyes comfortable. I don't tend to adjust the settings too much and just let auto brightness do its thing for me. The only thing I could thing of to improve things, is the ability to control the depth of the area that the light illuminates. I go on video calls often and I have to adjust the light to stop it from hitting my chest, which shows up on the calls - and this leads to the aforementioned problem of light bouncing off the bottom bezel as it gets hit. An ability to control the actual depth, rather than just adjusting the angle, would solve that for me. The remote puck is ok. It feels premium but it takes a tap to wake and another to change settings, and if you don't hit it right the first tap (direct contact with a control where the capacitive sensors exist), it can feel frustrating to use. I just put it on presence detection mode and not touch it most days as a result. Finally the back light, whilst more powerful than previous generations, doesn't really do much for me in my set up, as my monitor isn't sitting that close to the wall. I get a bit of ambient light from it, but not enough to make a real difference. So be warn if you're like me and have the monitor lifted forward away from the wall. All in all it's still a nice light to have. I love being able to paint my nails now without angling towards my lamp, and I'll no doubt enjoy it when I start crafting at my desk in the near future!

I remember I saw this light online and watched a lot of reviews on YT. My opinion is , this was built with very good materials making it more premium quality ,the setup is super easy and the most important this for me is the functionality, the different lights tones are very convenient and useful. I could say I’m very ver satisfied with this lamp.

The BenQ ScreenBar Holo 2 is an excellent on-screen lamp. The light is bright, clear, and adjusts beautifully to reduce eye strain during long work or reading sessions. Its sleek design and easy setup make it a classy and functional addition to any workstation. The only downside is the price — it’s a bit pricey, but in my opinion, worth it for the quality

The BenQ ScreenBar Halo 2 is an excellent monitor light that delivers exactly what it promises. It provides great illumination without shining in my eyes, which makes long sessions at the desk far more comfortable. The controls are fantastic and intuitive to use, and the overall experience is very satisfying. I have no qualms at all and would happily recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality monitor light.

Très franchement, la BenQ ScreenBar Halo 2 est un des meilleurs achats que j’ai faits pour mon bureau. Dès l’installation, ça a rendu mon setup beaucoup plus beau, plus propre et plus “premium”. Ça apporte une vraie ambiance, surtout le soir, sans avoir besoin d’allumer une grosse lampe qui casse tout. Au quotidien, c’est aussi ultra pratique pour bosser : • la lumière éclaire parfaitement le bureau sans éblouir • ça évite les reflets sur l’écran • ça fatigue beaucoup moins les yeux qu’un éclairage classique • tu gardes ton bureau clean parce que ça ne prend zéro place La qualité est au rendez-vous : finitions solides, lumière homogène, réglages simples, et le fait d’avoir une lumière “focus” sur le bureau fait une vraie différence pour lire, écrire, travailler sur un clavier, etc. Bref : ça améliore le confort + ça rend le setup beaucoup plus stylé. Je recommande à 100% si tu passes beaucoup de temps sur ton PC.

Utilizzo la BenQ ScreenBar Halo 2 da alcune settimane e la differenza si nota subito, soprattutto se si lavora molte ore davanti al monitor. La luce è uniforme, ben distribuita e non crea riflessi sullo schermo, cosa fondamentale per chi fa grafica o video. La doppia illuminazione (frontale + posteriore) riduce molto l’affaticamento visivo, soprattutto la sera. La regolazione automatica funziona bene, ma apprezzo molto anche il controller wireless: intuitivo, preciso e con materiali di qualità. Ottima la possibilità di regolare temperatura e intensità in modo fine. Il sistema di fissaggio è solido e compatibile anche con monitor sottili o curvi. Prezzo non basso, ma qualità costruttiva e comfort visivo giustificano l’investimento. Dopo averla provata, tornare a una lampada tradizionale è difficile. Consigliata a chi cerca una soluzione professionale e curata nei dettagli.
