BenQ has released the iScreenBar, a dedicated light bar for the iMac, priced at $189. The device is marketed as the first of its kind specifically built for Apple’s desktop computer. It attaches to the back of the 24-inch iMac using a magnetic clamp and draws power from the machine’s USB-C port. The iScreenBar illuminates an area measuring 33.5 by 19.7 inches with a brightness of 500 lux, without casting light onto the screen itself.

The product aims to improve workspace lighting for users who work with the iMac. By avoiding glare on the display, it maintains the clarity of the screen while providing sufficient ambient lighting. The iScreenBar is designed to be a minimalist addition to the iMac setup, offering a clean and functional lighting solution.

BenQ emphasizes the ease of installation and the seamless integration with the iMac’s existing hardware. The light bar is intended for users who require additional lighting without compromising the aesthetics or performance of their iMac.
