The ScreenBar Pro is the best-overall pick — eliminates monitor glare with asymmetric optics that traditional desk lamps can't match.
The ScreenBar Halo is the value monitor-light pick — CRI 95 + halo backlight at $179.
The Lightcycle Morph is the circadian pick — Dyson's flagship that adjusts color temp throughout the day to match local sunlight.
The ScreenBar Plus is the legacy BenQ pick — original ScreenBar with wired puck control at $129. Still excellent for monitor workers.
The TaoTronics is the budget pick — $50 articulating LED desk lamp with USB charging.
