3. Pricing and availability in Singapore<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/section>\nMost power users who spend long hours are already familiar with BenQ\u2019s ScreenBar series of monitor lights. These compact, over-monitor illumination lights are highly valued for reducing contrast glare, making it easier to concentrate and do attention-intensive tasks at your PC workstation or swanky work desk.<\/p>\n
BenQ is adding more options to its extensive range (including the backlight-capable ScreenBar Halo 2). The two new additions are designed specifically for multi-monitor setups and for Apple macOS users who need a monitor light that aesthetically matches their Apple-branded monitor PC, the iMac.<\/p>\n\nBenQ\u2019s ScreenBar monitor light product range as of 2026<\/p>\n

Do you own an iMac and wished you had an overhead monitor light that not only reduces contrast glare, but also matches the colour of your macOS workstation? This ScreenBar variant is the answer.<\/p>\n
The iScreenBar matches the iMac\u2019s aesthetic, right down to its sleek metallic unibody design. To mount the light, it includes a magnetic arm that connects directly to the PC\u2019s USB-C port for power supply. It also includes magnetic cable-management hooks (note that this magnetic clip style is compatible only with 2021 and later iMac models).<\/p>\n\nMagnetic cable management provided for 2021 or later iMacs<\/p>\n

Other features include intelligent dimming, where the iScreenBar can sense your iMac entering an online meeting or video call and dim the centre bunch of LEDs. This prevents the monitor light from messing with your front camera\u2019s auto-exposure settings. At the same time, it helps you maintain a natural, well-lit appearance, which might help make you looking more approachable or professional.<\/p>\n\niScreenBar\u2019s compatibility with macOS tweaks<\/p>\n

The light is also integrated with macOS to grant personalised lighting settings. Once connected, you can manually control the temperature (2,700K to 6,500K, ANSI White 8 quadrangles colour standard), adjust brightness, and more. It even detects which app is active on your iMac and applies your customised lighting profile accordingly (e.g., lights suitable for web browsing in Safari versus binge-watching on Netflix).<\/p>\n
You can also rotate (up-down) to move the light closer to or farther from your keyboard, although BenQ said its patented AYSM-Light path is already optimised to prevent light from being cast directly into your eyes or onto the monitor.<\/p>\n

Multi-monitor users, your monitor light has arrived. BenQ knows it can get silly to buy multiple monitor lights and attach them to all your displays, so they now offer the ScreenBar Max: a single, comprehensive monitor light on its own arm for all your monitors at once.\u00a0<\/p>\n\nScreenBar Max\u2019s lighting angle<\/p>\n

The BenQ ScreenBar Max is optimised for a dual-monitor setup. It takes all of BenQ\u2019s past ScreenBar lessons and applies them to lighting multiple panels at once. Its AYSM-Light pathing patent is the star of the bar, using a unique AYSM-TriZone Light path to shape and illuminate only your workstation while keeping it off the screens.<\/p>\n\nScreenBar Max\u2019s lightcast area and coverage<\/p>\n

A key perk of this path light is that ScreenBar Max can accommodate unusual monitor layouts, e.g., one portrait and one landscape, tilted dual monitors, and even curved ultrawide ones.<\/p>\n\nScreenBar Max illuminated<\/p>\n

For desks with 6cm-or-thinner tabletops, users can use the included Secure Desk Clamp to secure the ScreenBar Max. If your tabletop is thicker, BenQ offers an Optional Desk Base (2.5kg, 16.8 x 23.4cm wide; sold separately) to hold the monitor light in place.<\/p>\n
BenQ recommends extending the light\u2019s neck about 5cm past your monitors for the optimal viewing experience, and the mounting rod has three adjustable heights to accommodate differently sized monitors: 55cm, 63cm, and 71cm.<\/p>\n\nControls on the ScreenBar Max<\/p>\n

Like the iScreenBar above, the ScreenBar Max can also auto-detect the user via a motion-based mmWave sensor when the user comes within 60cm (\u00b110 cm) of the monitors. The lights itself also feature an impressive array of controls (stepless brightness, favourite light profiles, switching front\/back lights, auto-dimming, etc.) that really speaks to most multi-monitor power users.<\/p>\n
