Upgrade for my Dual Mac/Windows Setup

Recently been improving my setup and decided to upgrade to the BenQ ScreenBar Halo 2 —    
figured I'd share my thoughts for anyone considering it.

The Halo 2 is a meaningful upgrade over the original. The build, lighting features, and underlying    
tech are completely different.

The Build: Surprisingly substantial in hand — the aluminum build gives it a premium weight that    
shows quality. The wireless controller is equally hefty with a smooth rotation dial and responsive    
touch interface. Nothing about this product feels cheap or like a corner was cut. The controller is    
a chunky lil puck that sits on your desk and feels nice to use. Tap the screen to select the mode, rotate the ring to adjust settings, and the display tells you exactly where your settings are at. Battery lasts up to 3 months on a charge so it's not something youre thinking about constantly.

The Lighting: Two main features working independently or together — the downward-firing light bar and a rear backlight.    
The light bar is specifically designed to eliminate screen glare and direct light into your eyes. Light is targeted at your desk with full control over brightness and color temperature. Being able to dial up a warm 2700K at 1am without blinding yourself is one of those small quality of life things you don't realize you need until you have it.    
The backlight pleased me the most. I didn't expect to care about it but it adds a layer of ambiance that changes my setup aesthetically. It also doubles as a subtle night light — the motion sensor auto-activates (if selected) when you sit at your desk or if you walk by at night. Both lights are independently tunable and the settings can be saved.

Verdict: 10/10 - If youre in the market for a premium desk lighting solution this is the one.
