Looks great - but I need 2 for work from home having 2 monitors, and a great additional feature that would be nice to see in the future is a light for zoom calls to light up your face with a soft light. A lot of co workers have those TH-cam’er lights, but it would be nice to have an all in one. Thanks Cad - great to see product offers you endorse.
I use background lighting via Philips Play bars (3 bars) which also works like Philips Ambilight. For me this is ideal because its more immersive. And when I am working I can set the light to bright and have the same effect.
I always thought the light from the lightbar would cause reflections on the screen, guess I was wrong. This looks rather useful, hope you get more opportunities to review!
I can attest to the quality of the BenQ ScreenBar as I have owned one for maybe a year now. The light does not reflect on the screen, and the illuminated area covers the full length and width of my desk. Compared to the other options I considered like a traditional desk lamp, the ScreenBar isn't intrusive into my desk space. Even with a curved monitor, it mounts easily to the top and has never fallen off.
This looks like an excellent product. Unfortunately I'm not in the position to spend $200 CAD on any sort of light atm. Maybe down the line or if the price drops.
Good ad. Very well-rounded information given. Needed some pricing info stated tho. And if possible, comparisons to other products like it. If you have any experience with any. Also, there needs to be some transparency about this video being an advertisement on the About info for the video, and if you know how, as an annotation on the video itself. Though I appreciate you verbally stating it. I don't know Canada's digital laws on Promotional Work, tho.
They should also integrate a cam. If you have only one monitor you have to choose between the lamp or a cam. Or is it possible to put a cam on top of the lamp?
Me playing on a 2007 Toshiba: “I might need that” On a more serious note, is this only for gaming monitors or can I use this for long office hours (I’m studying finance so)?
I sometimes play on Xbox Series. I love to play indie games on the side. Different genres like rpg, platformer or city builder. Has to be something relaxing as a contrast to the shooter games.
@@TheCadWoman I agree it's definitely good to have a variety. I really miss Tekken 6 on ps3 since my ps3 died. I'm considering getting a second hand one, but I've got a ps5 now. However the thought of playing Bad Company 2 on ps3 again is very tempting- definitely my favourite Battlefield game. Thanks for the reply again!👍
Interesting I’d consider getting one of these. What about speakers I’m interested in getting speaker actually to plug into in my computer? I use my 55” LG C1 tv as my monitor
The Screenbar Plus should definitely work with a curved monitor. But I think this one should work as well. Couldn’t try it though since I don’t have one.
Hab das Ding schon seit Wochen bei Amazon im Warenkorb aber war mir nicht sicher ob sich das lohnt. Wenn dann shoppe ich aber über deinen Ref Link, danke für das Review
Nice to see you are getting big enough for manufactures sending you stuff!
Actually, this turns out to look more useful than the usual infomercial stuff on YT. I added it to my Christmas Wish on Amazon.
Cool to see some varied content, good job CW!

I like when ads are really relevant and useful
I am contemplating getting this. Thanks for the video!
Very cool product. Awesome to see you branching into different content too!
Lol was right now searching for a desklight. Now i want a BenQ Halo. TY.
Love all your videos. Keep up the good work! Hope to meet you on the battlefield some day. I liked the lamp review. Might get one of those. Thanks!
I need that lamp! Not for my gaming pc, but for my work pc that not has any back light on the keyboard. Thank you for the tip. You are awesome.
Looks very interesting. Gonna have to get one of these. Great review 👍
looks very nice and sturdy I’d grab one for sure if I had a desk setup
👌🙏

thanks a lot. this one is actually kinda useful
I don’t have a PC right now, but my buddy from work might be interested in this, I’m gonna share him this video.

That looks great and thank you for your opinion.
Giggidy 🤩
I'd like a review from your pen collection. They looks very nice.
Great video btw!!
Nice to see something else other than battlefield sometimes! Keep it up!!
They should also integrate a cam. If you have only one monitor you have to choose between the lamp or a cam. Or is it possible to put a cam on top of the lamp?
Well you could put a cam on top of the clip, but it's just lying there and is not really well mounted. Probably not a long-term solution.

On a more serious note, is this only for gaming monitors or can I use this for long office hours (I’m studying finance so)?
Yes it‘s also for office use. Whenever you spend a lot of time at you monitor or your desk.
Since you mentioned other games, what else do you play and do you play any consoles?
I sometimes play on Xbox Series. I love to play indie games on the side. Different genres like rpg, platformer or city builder. Has to be something relaxing as a contrast to the shooter games.

What? You have a face? I'm amazed day after day on this channel.
Indeed yes. But I can understand you‘re quite shocked about this fact. 😋
Wonder if they have an option for a curved ultrawide.
Yes. The ScreenBar Plus should work for this.
Interesting I’d consider getting one of these. What about speakers I’m interested in getting speaker actually to plug into in my computer? I use my 55” LG C1 tv as my monitor
I‘m not using any speakers on my PC. Can’t really give you any recommendation here.
Only thing stopping me from buying is my Track IR for DCS would have nowhere to sit :(
That’s it I’m simping
Scheint ja zu laufen. 🤗 Habe mal auf den link geklickt und da ist nur noch 1 Stück auf Lager.👍
amazing
Very interesting the screen gets harder to look at at night
BenQ's website says they also sell an adapter for a webcam.
Oh ok. Haven’t seen that. Nice to know they have a solution.
*this isn’t battlefield.*
On another note I got the T1 season badge! Yay!
Oh really? Mine jumped from 1132 to 1146 yesterday and got stuck there. 😒
@@TheCadWoman wow! The exact same thing happened! Mine then updated the next day to 1,149 then the updated to 1,150 later in the day.
You can do it!
@@ShellShocked78-g3x I just got it today. Same thing for me. Jumped from 146 to 149 and then after a match or two to 150.
@@TheCadWoman how is it this consistent at being inconsistent? Hope they fix it for season 2
Is it work fine with curve monitor?
The Screenbar Plus should definitely work with a curved monitor. But I think this one should work as well. Couldn’t try it though since I don’t have one.

Musst uns mal was auf der Gitarre vorspielen ☺️
Könnte ich machen. 😄
Awesome
I don't think is any other person on TH-cam that will get enough attention from me to watch a video of something I don't need 🤪🤪🤪🤩😍
Acoustic Bass behind you? Play us a 🎵
Some guitars and a bass yes. 😉
@@TheCadWoman awesome, this is the way :)(:
Nice
Great idea but the entry level price is $100....hard pass.
there are much cheaper options that work similar or even better. benq is cashing out on the cheaper version thats been making rounds on TikTok lol
How old are you?
Better not ask. 😄
OMG beautiful woman without ton of makeup - my gratulations not everyday picture ;)))
you should start doing livestreams to grow the channel further...
I know. I‘m on it and trying to get the setup ready.
Cost is to high. Look for cheaper.
Way too expensive for what it is.
