This is a quality of life improvement I did not know I needed. I wanted a desk lamp that I could use to illuminate the center of my desk, but I didn't want to take up limited desk real estate. In my search for a lamp with a minimal footprint, I discovered the growing popularity of monitor mounted lamps and saw this one regularly featured for its quality compared to other far more expensive lights. I can understand why so many recommended it. The material quality is excellent, the clamp is surprisingly hefty, the materials are primarily metal, and the design is very clean. It doesn't feature an uplight for bias lighting, but I'd rather have a dedicated light for that purpose.

I'm not concerned about the lack of RGB lighting, as I was interested in reducing eye strain and illuminating my desk, which the bi-color lighting serves perfectly. The range of brightness is excellent as well, I have no problems using it at night or during the day.

The one con I've identified so far is that the control dial, while very responsive, is too sensitive. There are low resistance detents that provide tactile feedback when you rotate the dial. Ideally the brightness should change only when you've passed a detent, as their entire purpose is to be a form of tactile feedback that registers you've made an adjustment. Unfortunately the sensor detects the slight play between detents, making the haptic feedback superfluous and the brightness control somewhat erratic. Simply wiggling the dial slightly without ever passing a detent causes the brightness to jump up and down until it reaches either max or minimum brightness. If I'm trying to make a fine adjustment of one brightness level, the lamp will often suddenly increase or decrease an extra level than intended. It is also frustrating when having to combine this with pressing the dial to change the color temperature and having the temperature get warmer or colder in increments you did not intend. It's not such a huge issue that I have any regrets. I still fully recommend this lamp, I just hope they address this problem in any future revisions.
