Laptop light, pocket-sized: BenQ launches LaptopBar with enhanced eye-comfort

Explore the innovative BenQ LaptopBar, a pocket-sized, lightweight laptop lighting solution offering auto-dimming, dual forms, and magnetic attachment, blending portability with eye comfort.

Renowned for its pioneering lighting solutions, including the groundbreaking “ScreenBar” monitor light, BenQ Smart Lighting (hereinafter BenQ) introduces its latest breakthrough, the LaptopBar. This pioneering laptop lighting solution combines ultimate portability with a lightweight design, perfectly fitting into your pocket.

Ultimate portability and lightweight design for on-the-go brilliance

LaptopBar sets a new standard for portability. Weighing less than a smartphone and being cordless, it’s the ultimate on-the-go lighting solution that can conveniently slip into your pocket. With a built-in battery offering up to 160 minutes of illumination (at 50% brightness) and a convenient carry pouch, LaptopBar provides easy portability, ensuring ideal lighting wherever you are.

Customized lighting: Your preferences, your comfort

With its pioneering personalized auto-dimming technology, LaptopBar takes the user experience to a new level. Using BenQ’s patented light sensor, LaptopBar remembers your specific lighting preferences and intelligently adapts to changes in ambient light and your personal settings.

LaptopBar isn’t just a light; it’s a reimagination of illumination. Through an intricate process involving 20 million beam simulations, BenQ has created a 3D surrounding illumination that brings together central brightness and ambient light. This design reduces the contrast between your screen and surroundings, offering optimal eye comfort during prolonged work sessions with your laptop.

Dual forms for tailored illumination

LaptopBar’s innovation doesn’t stop at its portable design; it offers users two distinct forms to suit different lighting preferences with its adjustable arm. In its expanded form, LaptopBar provides a gentle light that maximizes your field of vision. This reduces the contrast between your environment and the screen, creating a comfortable ambiance. On the other hand, the folded form narrows your field of vision, allowing for focused lighting that enhances concentration and minimizes distractions. With LaptopBar’s versatile forms, you’re equipped to tackle every task with your laptop while ensuring your eye comfort is never compromised.

Seamless magnetism: LaptopBar’s innovative design for easy attachment

LaptopBar’s charm lies in its patented magnetic design. Its magnetic attachment effortlessly secures LaptopBar to your laptop, leaving the webcam unobstructed and your screen unharmed. Moreover, the lamp head and body utilize magnetic force, enabling easy assembly and separation for compact storage. With LaptopBar, a simple click guarantees seamless integration, catering to diverse laptop designs and camera access needs.

Environmentally conscious innovation

LaptopBar embraces sustainability with its eco-friendly packaging made from paper-based materials. By utilizing a structural design approach, unnecessary components and plastic are eliminated, minimizing environmental impact.

LaptopBar will be available for purchase in November 2023 on the BenQ Singapore Shopee store, with a list price of S$229.
