Update: This product also presses on a slimmer screen and it is dangerous to damage the monitor. Tested it on my wife's new monitor. You can check the result of how it looks like at 06:00. The other model from Baseus is better because it doesn't have the strength to press on the monitor. it will just hang. Or you can also go for Xiaomi Screenbar.
Update: 10:12 PM - in order to avoid light bleeding. Put a slim strong card beneath the clip. about 1.3 inches X 2 inches. You can use an unused ATM card. Then at the bottom of the biggest part of the clip that is placed in the back, put a double-sided tape so the screen bar will not fall. This hack will make the clip not to hold on your monitor and cause light bleeding.
Awesome! Which one do you recommend? Baseus Pro or Xiaomi?
@@harrynunez2963 xiaomi. It has better defusion compared to baseus. And it has wireless remote.
@@RitchieLinao Could you elaborate on what you mean by better light diffusion? Also great review, much more detailed than others that show up higher on the search list!
@@Elijah._.7 The LED light is covered well with white plastic to reduce harsh lights. That's what I noticed at Xiaomi Store in the mall. And I think the angle is also different. And it is also not advisable to max the brightness of the light because it bounces in the screen when viewing white pages. David Zhang also created two reviews though it's a different product. You might want to check it out.
@@RitchieLinao I actually came from that video, didn't know monitor light bars were a thing and I've been searching for a product like that this whole time!
I don't understand how you have so few views. This is the most technical video I found on this subject.
As a photographer too, accurate colours, contrast etc are really important. Wouldn't using a warm light change the way you perceive your image and it's output?
the lightbar won't change the image. though, the dust in your monitor can be very annoying while editing and you keep on using a rocket blower to clear the dust.
What changes the image on your screen is the night light settings that will turn the blue light to warm.
In my current settings right now, I no longer use night light settings and baseus monitor light because my eyes already adapted to the blue light but not that much, sometimes I can still experience eye strain.
@@RitchieLinao Yeah, night light will definitely change it but I hear even ambient light that's warm or cold will change how you perceive an image.
Also, if we have lower or higher brightness and contrast of the monitor compared to the screens of other people, it would look different on their screen. This is something that always bothered me.
@@danlightened I just recently test it with my desk lamp that has warm light, it shows a little change in colors. especially on shadows and mid-tones. Bright colors are not affected heavily and not noticeable. I think that's the reason why there are monitors with a cover on the sides and top to block all lights filling in the screen.
@@RitchieLinao Yeah, that's why I'm wondering how the light bar will affect it.
Pros use monitor calibrating tools tho, I believe. I guess you can save the calibration for 2-3 different light setups that you work on throughout the day.
But the problem is, they're as costly as the monitor itself.
@@danlightened yes, pros use calibrating tools. In my country, we hire people that have spyder monitor calibrators and pay them around $10. Having different lights setup can also waste space and I think it won't be a big help as we don't know how ambient light works properly.
it would be better to buy a monitor with 100%sRGB, then create your own monitor side and top cover so that there will be no light bouncing on the monitor. Because the BenQ is way too expensive.
Then look for a printer that will match your monitor's color using sRGB and not Adobe RGB.
Thank you very much for the review. I’ve read a couple of others on the Baseus but didn’t know a wireless monitor light existed. I’m very fussy about ‘extra curricular’ chords and the like so this one suits me perfectly. I appreciate you also answering the questions in the comment section as that also helped me with my decision.
This is very helpful, and amazingly produced!
this is the review that I am looking for ! Thank you very much Sir
Best and honest review. Thanks mate🙏
I have this light on my monitor and I cant even sit at my desk without using this light. It comes in very handy esp at night when I need the overhead light off in my room. nice video
A very well thought out video. Liked!
Very informative. Thank you very much for your video.
Thank you for deep review. Thumps up!!
thanks for the honest review boss.. 👌👌👌
you're welcome.
This is a very satisfying review of a product. No unnecessary background music. Everything is straight to the point! Subscribed btw. :)
Thanks for sharing this comprehensive review
you're welcome
HAD THE SAME MISTAKE!!! was really losing hope with this screenbar trying to rearrange my dual monitor planning to place it in between monitors even 3d printing a bracket or something. Snugging a folded paper in the clamp works perfectly! Can't believe didn't think of this solution one bit.
This is exactly what I’m searching for. Had the same mistake too!
Is this the one with the knob on the side where you can adjust the dimness to your liking?
well made video!
These lights are for illuminating the desk. I am looking for this to use when studying (reading paper text and writing by hand). Some of them have a bias lighting that helps with eye strain.
boos! i appreciate the review. salamat po
should there be a light lamp that can be mounted behind the gaming chair? L0L that is adjustable
hey , the review was very good
also can you comment on the brightness i am confused between mi monitor lamp (both baseus and mi are 5w) or the mi 1s desk lamp which is 10w ?
did you find yourself thinking it is too dim ?
Go for 5 w , 10 w is too much really too much
Also made a mistake in buying the youth version because of the number of sold items (salamat shopee).
Still don't see how you managed to open the clip using a cardboard at 6:00. Thanks for this!
just make sure it has the same size as your monitor's thickness. mine is 1.3 x 2 inches to stop the clip's pressure in pressing the monitor. This light is already sold 3 days ago. Had to let it go because I am not happy with the product. I am also having second thoughts of buying the Xiaomi because it is 1,500 pesos in Xiaomi local store here in my City. The one with a wireless remote.
thank you, that was the video i was looking for
there is so much marketing out there, it's really hard to sort out what is marketing and what is real.
you're welcome! :)
Sorry to ask what other baseus model are you referring too? "Baseus i-wok Series Screen Hanging Light (Fighting) Pro USB Asymmetric Light Source" is this it? would this be better or the xiaomi one ? thank you
I forgot what model it is. but I would prefer you get the Xiaomi because I think it has better light control.
Have you noticed any backlight bleed in your monitor where your screen bar is placed? My screen developed some backlight bleed after 2days of putting this on.
yes, there is a backlight bleed. to solve the issue. you need to put a solid card. like ID or old ATM card. check here: www.dropbox.com/s/thxrs1j0y6wkv5t/2021-03-23%2010.05.16.jpg?dl=0
this is to stop the clip from pressing the monitor.
@@RitchieLinao My God!! You are a lifesaver sir!!! I am forever grateful!! 🤯
I found your comment on an another channel and watched your review here 😊 we both have the same issue since I also have a thin bezels (Lg 27ul850) I think the fighting version will be the best solution for us 😆
True. but I already sold mine because I wasn't happy about the product. I also made a solution for the clip not to cause backlight bleeding in the monitor.
You can check it here: www.dropbox.com/s/thxrs1j0y6wkv5t/2021-03-23%2010.05.16.jpg?dl=0
@@RitchieLinao can you share why you’re not satisfied with the “fighting” version of Baseus? I saw the hack you did btw, that’s genius!
@@FranzEscolasticoDesigns you can check at 3:43 - About how the baseus light bounces on the white screen. The harsh the highlight, the worst the eye strain I will experience every time I work. Compared to my xiaomi desk lamp, there's no harsh highlight.
You can also check in 1:52 with their demonstration of how the light spread but it's a scam. LOL
you can also check from David's video, how the light spread: czcams.com/video/oHhCpGDeILA/video.html
@@RitchieLinao what are your thoughts on the Xiaomi Mi Light Bar (with remote control)?
@@25chelsea30 still not that okay. all of them. I am always annoyed by all the dust that is very visible on the screen.
Buti na lang nakita ko review mo sir. Planning to buy one na sana. Subscribed amd liked ur review videos. More reviews pa sir 😁🔥👍
thanks! soon! Will be releasing a new video after getting a new camera gears.
Did the screenbar function as webcam lighting?
I haven't tried it but it will work.
im a photographer to. kakabili ko lang ng baseus screenbar youth. d ko pa nasusubukan.. binili ko dahil sa gabi ako ng eedit and para d na mastress eyes ko. update kta about sa product. yung monitor ko is Asus frameless sana d magka bleed. nice video btw
Should i buy it? I’m still confused 🥺
Don't buy it. Buy the xiaomi. Someone comment here about the result of how the light spread.
Can you please review the xiaomi light bar?
soon! I am planning to make a review. Hopefully next month.
this is the video
Waiting for alternative
Finally someone noticed that all this "asymmetrical" talk is bullshit, and from testing a bunch of screenbars I can also tell that it seems not all even get the 300-500 LUX that they should too!

you can get lots of options here.

That's where I got mine.
Maiba lang boss ano pong camera gamit niyo
Nikon D600 with 35mm lens. nag manual lang sa mga focusing. mahirap mag video sa camera ko. kaya ndi na ako naka release ng mga new videos. marami naka pending.
Have you tried that of Xiaomi?
I have checked it at xiaomi store but the remote is not very responsive but I can't give a good answer of how well it works at home. Though, the light diffusion is good.
@@RitchieLinao could be old batteries tbh
Thank you, you saved me money. also, it's made in china.
