Key Points:
- BenQ has launched the iScreenBar, the first monitor light bar specifically designed for the 24-inch iMac (2021 and later), priced at $189.
- The iScreenBar features an aluminum build, magnetic mounting, and asymmetric optics to illuminate the desk area (33.5 by 19.7 inches at 500 lux) without causing screen glare or blocking the iMac's camera and microphone.
- It includes a glass touch panel and a macOS app for adjusting brightness, color temperature, and light modes, with automatic activation via presence detection or when the iMac wakes.
- The light bar offers a video call mode that evens out lighting and reduces facial glare, enhancing camera image quality during calls.
- Powered through the iMac’s USB-C port, the iScreenBar also includes a magnetic cable clip for cord management and adapts brightness based on ambient room lighting.
