  • The BenQ Screenbar Plus is a computer monitor lamp for anyone who sits looking at a screen for long periods of time. This review highlights the benefits of adjustable desk lamps using manual and auto adjustments to brightness and hue! Having used BenQ monitors, this is a great accompaniment to your workspace and kind to your eyes!

    Thanks for another great review Mark. How would this work with screen Calibration? Would you leave it on and calibrate and allow the calibration to compensate for it or remove it and replace afterwards?

    thanks for the review. I need a decent light because my desk is in the corner of the room where the light sucks. Will need to scan my pennies now to try this out. Also nice shirt. I've visited SW 8th Street in Miami a number of times and it is always exciting.

    Thanks for the review Mark. Do you find yourself using the desktop control, or do you think operating the light via the buttons are sufficient? There is a small cost savings, but I'm also thinking the desktop control consumes some desk real estate. My interest in this light it to reduce clutter on my desk.

  • @pcmobitab
    @pcmobitab Před 2 lety

    What about monitors with very thin bezel. I had purchased the Baesus one, 1/3 rd of the price of Benq. But its spring is so tight that it puts so much pressure on the screen so it glows white from that area. I have a thin bezel monitor from LG. Sometimes with a lot of manual effort I am able to fit on the monitor by just touching the top portion of the bezel and avoiding the screen. But if I have to adjust it, thats a nightmare. Fitting it again that way its very difficult

  • @rolandrickphotography

    Question, can you shift that thing in the handle/holder left to right? I have a Mac Studio Display, camera in the middle of screen, exactly where this backholding nipple thing, whatsovever it is called, covers the camera. Besides, the excellent mics of the Studio Display are on top (pointing upwards) about 1.5 left cm (about half an inch) left and right to the camera and unfortunately they would be covered by the "patented design" clip. Camera and Mics of Apples Studio Display are so good, no additional gear needed for the intended use, that includes making tutorials. Is that clip heavy enough, to keep the bar horizontal, even if mounted about 2.5 inch asymmetrical in the clip?

    I prefer the Touch sensitive version with no extra controller ,because let's be honest , one of the point of these products is to not take precious desk space , and no extra cable.
    I used to have a very cheap aliexpress alternative , wich is great and still works just fine, but unlike the Ben-Q , it just won't fit on a 49" Curved Super Ultra Wide so i have to upgrade.

      @Siberius- Před 2 lety

      You would only need one in the middle, regardless of how many monitors you have. Unless you have a mega long desk and slide yourself across it to work on different things, then one would not be sufficient.
      If you have 2 monitors, and you sit right in the middle, then you would just have to mount it on the very edge of one of the monitors as close to the middle as you can get.
