Lighting Is Often the Missing Piece

More Screens. More Flow. Less Clutter.

You’ve optimized your screen setup to code and multitask faster. As it grows, keep your workspace clean, comfortable, and focused without adding more desk clutter.

Not All Light Is Made for Screen Setups

A conventional desk lamp may brighten your desk, but it can also create screen glare, uneven coverage, and harsh contrast between your monitor and the room.

What is Glare and How to Fix it

Monitor Lighting Built to Complete Your Setup

BenQ ScreenBar® is designed to fit seamlessly into your screen-based workspace. With a space-saving mount, precision optics, and backlighting, it creates a cleaner, more comfortable setup that supports long hours of coding, multitasking, and everything beyond your workday.

Precision Light for Every Screen Layout

Whether you code on an ultrawide display or a dual-monitor setup, every inch of your desk space matters. BenQ ScreenBar® mounts directly to your monitor, delivering precision lighting without taking up valuable workspace or adding clutter.

  • ScreenBar® Max｜Dual Monitor Desk Lamp

    Built for wider dual-monitor workspaces.

Lighting for Larger Workspaces

Your monitor setup is just the beginning. Select the light coverage that best fits your workspace to enjoy even, comfortable illumination where you need it most.

For Dual Monitors
For Single Monitor
  • Delivers 700 lx across a 53 × 29.5-inch (135 × 75 cm) area, providing wider desk coverage for dual-monitor setups.
  • Delivers 500 lx across a 33.5 × 19.7-inch (85 × 50 cm) area to light the main work area in front of the screen. If your work area requires lighting coverage wider than 55.1 inch (140 cm), consider ScreenBar Max for broader illumination.

Controlled Light Without the Glare

BenQ designs each ScreenBar® optical system around how people work with screens. From monitor-mounted light bars to dual-monitor desk lamps, every light path is carefully shaped to illuminate the work area while keeping light off the screen and away from your eyes.

See How Each Optical System Works

  • ASYM-TriZone Light™ For Dual Monitor Desk Lamp

    With a higher 21.7–28.0 in light position, ScreenBar® Max uses a 36° shielding angle to help cover a wider workspace while reducing direct glare.

  • ASYM Light™ For Monitor Light Bars

    With a monitor-mounted position of around 19.7 in, ScreenBar® Halo 2 uses an 18° shielding angle to direct light onto the desk while keeping it away from the screen and your eyes.

One Setup for Work and Life

From cool front lighting for focused coding to warm and softer backlighting for after-work comfort, BenQ ScreenBar® helps a single setup adapt seamlessly to both work and life.

    Learn More: Monitor Light Bar vs Dual Monitor Desk Lamp

  • Will ScreenBar take up space on my desk?

    No. Monitor light bars like ScreenBar Halo 2 sit on your monitor, while dual monitor desk lamps like ScreenBar Max use a desk-clamp design to save space. Both help you add better lighting without adding more desk clutter.

    Learn More the Benefits of ScreenBar

  • How does ScreenBar reduce glare in screen-based workspaces?

    BenQ ScreenBar uses patented optical technology to light your desk without shining onto your screen or eyes. ScreenBar Halo 2 uses ASYM-Light™, while ScreenBar Max uses ASYM-TriZone Light™ for dual-monitor layouts.
