BenQ’s Brilliant ScreenBar Lamps Are My Favorite WFH Accessory

I review a lot of home office gear for my job, which means my workstation is in flux. I have tested the original ScreenBar and the Pro—the Halo offers a backlight that pushes light behind the monitor if you want light on your desktop and the wall behind your computer screen. The Plus is the same as the standard ScreenBar, but it has a separate dial attachment to control the light's settings rather than the touch controls on top of the lamp. These ScreenBar lights are designed to have minimal bleed so that those LEDs don't blast your eyes, though you'll want to make sure your monitor is at eye level to avoid them. The best part is you don't have to use up a precious USB-A slot on your PC or laptop to keep the lights on—I just plug the ScreenBar directly into my monitor's USB port for power.
