BenQ has launched the ScreenBar Pro, the world’s first advanced monitor light bar designed to surpass traditional LED desk lamps, reduce eye strain, and balance contrast glare without shining directly on the monitor or keyboard.
Following its 2017 launch of the original ScreenBar, BenQ’s latest ScreenBar Pro is now in India, aimed at boosting comfort, focus, and productivity for anyone spending long hours at a desk.
The light bar provides precise, glare-free illumination across the desk, adjusts automatically to user presence, and supports 16 brightness levels and 8 color temperature settings for focus, comfort, or relaxation. It can be powered via USB-C or the included 15W adapter for simple setup.
Features of ScreenBar Pro
- 3rd Generation ASYM-Light™ Technology – Asymmetrical optics reduce glare and prevent reflections on the screen.
- Patented Counterweight Clamp – Fits almost any monitor, including curved and ultra-narrow bezel models, without causing damage.
- Automatic Lights On/Off – Ultrasonic motion sensor activates when seated and turns off after five minutes of inactivity.
- Real-time Auto Dimming – Single-touch adjustment to ANSI-recommended 500 lx illuminance standard.
- Full-spectrum LED Chips – High color fidelity with Rf>96 and Rg near 100, accurately reproducing colors.
ScreenBar Pro is built for durability, having undergone rigorous testing including lamp head rotation, clip stress, extreme temperatures (-20°C to 60°C), drops, humidity, and cable swinging. Installation is easy: attach it to the monitor, connect the cable, and enjoy automatic lighting. Its packaging is eco-friendly, made from paper-based materials to reduce plastic waste.
