The Xiaomi one seems like the better purchase, but I find this review a little bit biased and not a fair reflection of the performance of both products.

My strained eyes are going to thank you for your recommendation. I need to get these.

I wanted to try out the Xiaomi light bar first, but almost all of the main sellers on Amazon had poor reviews and higher than RRP prices. So, I bit the bullet and went for the BenQ Halo instead. I don't regret my purchase so far, and I find the back light a lot more useful than I initially anticipated. Yes, you could absolutely buy the Xiaomi light bar for the desk, and then get a cheap LED lamp to put behind the monitor as biased/ambient lighting. However, I don't have heaps of space behind my monitor and nor do I have a spare socket. The BenQ Halo handles everything in one solution, which saves space and prevents extra clutter.

Great review, straight to the point. Subscribed!

I bought a Quntis lightbar and thought the Benq was way too expensive. But I was so wrong! You get what you pay for! The Quntis doesn't really glare on the screen, but it illuminates every tiny speck of dust and still shines in my eyes. The dust was driving me mad. I cleaned it every day. I just got the Benq and the difference is night and day! The light is so focused that it doesn't light up the dust and doesn’t shine in my eyes. The backlight is a nice addition.

User of the MI light bar, go for the purchase it’s must better and always in stock, the glare is only an issue if installed improperly and on a curved monitor which is never the norm, I love the minimal aesthetic and zero branding. The brightness and CRI values of the LEDs are very good I rarely use the High mode.

I got the Xiaomi light bar a little over a year ago and I'm perfectly satisfied with it. I wouldn't spend $10 more to upgrade to the BenQ, let alone $100.

I am getting this bar! Way too slick to miss out on it.

thanks for the comparison!

nice video, keep up the great work bro.

Great video with fantastic facts. I have question, My children work in an office next to each other on seperate computers. If they each have a Mi light bar wireless remote control, when pressing setting does it impact the other light bar and if yes how can you stop this?

Hey! What are your thoughts on the ikea monitor light?

Can you Connect the remote control with a second Monitor Lightbar? I have two screens.🤔

Would you recommend BenQ for someone who easily gets eyestrain? Only way I can use my monitor is with my room fully lit or my eyes get hella irritated 😭

Hey! I might be too late but do you know if the xiaomi light bar will be able to fit on any monitor? I have an Lg gaming monitor which is super thicc in the back and so I don't know if this is a good option

Thank you, you have made my decision. I'm going to buy Xiaomi! Which monitor mount are you using? I have a curve monitor too.

Does your back light have a black bar running down the middle ?

I need this expeditiously

I AM SO SICK OF TEMU ADDS!!!!

errr not sure they are suppose to be for curved monitors?

My little Mazda is cheaper than audi and also has wheels. I personally dont need all the features than Audi provides, especially when it costs quadruple. I'm perfectly fine, both have 4 wheels and can get passengers, so as you already probably realized, I recommend Mazda. Is shorter and louder, but this aesthetics suits me, I dont know about you. Mazda is definitely better product. Now Im waiting for 100 comments from people who are grateful that I helped them choose better product and avoid overpriced junk

Benq Halo is far superior, better build, better brightness(back and front), and the Halo doesn't glare off the screen like the rest and wireless control, be patient and save up and spend your money once, don't buy junk over and over trying to match what you really want, junk is just a waste of money that you can't get back.

Niiice, tks :)

Sht I wiped my screen coz I thought mine was dirty

Chinese Xiamo mi? Nah

joke products, modern my butt; wrong is a better description. Aesthetics is the new crap of the younger generation, you are too worried about glamour and friggin looks not general practicality (LED Keuboards & RGB light coming out of every darn appliance, quit the addictions, getting thru life and not wallpapering the sidewalks. Like shopping for a darn designer hammer, like it is a necessity, or shopping for $40 or more t shirts for worrisome self image. Sensitive as hell consumerism, best part of what I see is your neat minimalism. and likely great organization. I just hope you get outdoors and enjoy humanity. A fixed higher overhead LED bulb a few above nice balance goose neck or balance rod suspension - spot with a scrim framed snoot / barn doors idea for limited shape over desk mounted just behid the monitor - never allowing any light wash on the screen, a big huge fail of the darn things. Projected right past the screen by all means. Possible by 12v dc cable hanger from ceiling like many designer lighting systems in gallery paced anywhere on the cable like Xmas lights but small.

No se ingles, cual dijo que es a mejor? jajajaja es enserio

Keep the room lights on while working if possible. These monitor light bars aren't bright enough or big enough to be a proper and healthy light source for your eyes. Stop wasting your money on an unnecessarily expensive tech which doesn't do any good anyway.

Chinese propaganda 🤣😂
