Which one should you buy?

For most desks the Xiaomi Computer Monitor Light Bar at around 74 dollars is the one to buy - it is the best-proven screen bar here by an enormous margin, with a wireless remote puck, asymmetric no-glare optics, Ra95 high colour rendering and USB-C auto-on, which is why it is our top pick and best value. If you only want to spend a little, the Biutee Monitor Light Bar at 40 dollars is a genuine USB-powered bar with three colour temperatures and touch dimming at the lowest price here. The Baseus Monitor Light Bar at 90 dollars is a premium-aluminium touch-control option. For a curved or ultrawide screen the ONWAY Curved Monitor Light Bar at 108 dollars is purpose-built with ambient auto-dimming. The premium smart pick is the BenQ ScreenBar Pro at 199 dollars, with a presence-detecting motion sensor and auto-dim, and the flagship is the BenQ ScreenBar Halo 2 at 259 dollars, which adds a rear ambient halo and a rechargeable wireless dial.
