The Monitor Light Bar GIVEAWAY is open to US Residence through Sunday 5/23/21, 12am PST!

Not one to leave reviews but this video is exceptional. Articulate, extremely thorough, and very well presented. This really helped decide on which one to buy for my business. Thanks for taking the time!

You're right that it depends on perception of value. I have found that I seldom regret a higher up-front price for a marginal improvement in quality in something that I'll use for years (hopefully!). Thus the adage "buy nice, or buy twice". But ultimately it depends on how much $70 is worth to the individual.

I got the Baseus cause it's cheaper. Found out that the clip doesn't go as far as the thickness of my 4 year old Samsung monitor. So for those considering this, they need to consider the width (thickness) of their monitor. If it's to clip onto a laptop, it shouldn't be a problem.

-I’ll got with baseus. It’s pretty close to benq but for the price baseus is the better buy. Also, take in consideration if you have other sources or light ..ambient or anything . One source lighting would be backed up by other lights you might have on at the same time.

Your desk looks amazing, great use in creativity

Love it, so detailed review! Going for Baseus lightbar In Shaa Allah....

One of the best vidoes ever made. Thanks Champ !!

Thanks for the review . I am glad I watched it before I bought a benq

I've bought the baesus one, i already knew it won't fit my monitor , but i soomehow used my engineer brain to build a workaround and fit it! so now its fine, it gets a bit warm while using. and i didn't like the cable. Overall good for the price.

Thanks for honest review. Should I worry about this light bar's reflection on top of the monitor? Does it haze the blacks or cause contrast issues? Any differents between BenQ, Xiaomi or Baseus in terms of blocking reflections?

Your voice is so soothing. What microphone are you using?

Bought two Baseus light bars, but way too late realized those won't fit on a DELL49 inch one. Even on the sides. :(

Thank you. The perfect video I needed!

Interesting indeed

you are such a great reviewer. i enjoy so much watching your review, keep going dude!

does the light from light bar reflects or fire downs on monitor itself?

Mhm the diffuser wouldn't be consuming half the light, rather a lot less! Bet around 5-10%. There has to be another explanation for the difference in spec brightness. I'm not convinced that i want to clip anything to the monitor though, because i don't want to crack the screen and cannot afford the cost of a replacement monitor. I have attached a 3D printed GoPro mount at the monitor's VESA mount points, and an extension arm is attached to that, with the final GoPro mount at the top carrying a modified PS3 Eye, with all these pieces being 3D printed but i validated their strength and ageing behaviour. I can attach a T-piece as well to this whole arrangement to carry a monitor light, but i can't imagine it being easy with these lights. On the other hand the very shitty ones which have a borderline non functioning mounting solution, may just be easy enough to adapt for me. But i'm not convinced that they have the bare minimum feature of having good light which doesn't shine up the monitor, so i may have to build my own or scavenge for some sort of idea.

So the point of these is to light up the area in front of the monitor, maybe so you can see your keyboard keys? Or you could just use a keyboard with its own lights.

How can you tell color temp and brightness level for the BenQ sceenbar? There is no indicator and no software that can tell you this info.

Very nice review. Subscribed

A 30 sec ad after 60 secs of video.......seriously!

Thanks. This is very informative. I was going to buy the Baseus but was worried that it might not clamp onto my BenQ PD3230u monitor that has more than 2 inch thickness. Guess I’ll have to go for the BenQ light bar then. Btw, what’s the led strip you used at the back of your monitor? It looks great!

kinda curious what the little cube-like power strip/usb hub on the lower left side of your desktop setup?

May I know the monitor wallpaper? Beautiful

Baseus have another version which have the hanging design which is great for those bezel less monitor

Does the monitor bar irritate the field of view? A light bar at top of screen might look odd to look at, isnt it?

Thanks

Well baseus got new pro version..i will go to that owh yeahh

my monitor is a curved monitor with a 2inch thick top..do you think it could sit on top without falling over? any way i can rig it with velcro or something? is it good for thin bezels?

i hate how the crappy clamps are probably what's going make me go for 100 dollar benq version.

Great video
