Hottest Amazon Prime Day Monitor Deals

It's early in the morning, but the gaming monitor deals are flying in. We'll keep this list hot as the event progresses; buckle up!

Corsair's tiny PC touchscreen discounted in all five colors

The viral Corsair Xeneon Edge LCD touchscreen is back in stock and discounted at Corsair, with $50 off all five colors.

This touchscreen can be used standalone, mounted with magnets, or even integrated into select Corsair PC cases. It can serve as a control system for your music or voice chats, a comment or chat window for your live streams, or as a nerve center monitoring your PCs vital signs. It can be mounted horizontally or vertically, offering a 2560 x 720 resolution display with a 60Hz refresh rate. This was one of the most popular deals during the last Prime Day earlier in the summer, so it won't be around for long. - Stephen Warwick.

Two of Alienware's best award-winning QD-OLED gaming monitors plummet to record-low prices

Dell/Alienware has long made excellent monitors, and the company's OLED screens in particular have stuck out in recent years for a combination of price and performance. Today you can snag a swift 27-inch, 360 Hz option or a 280 Hz 34-inch ultrawide for the lowest prices ever.

You can't go wrong with either of these screens, as we've tested both and both got our Editors' Choice for their performance. The AW2725DF is an older model from 2024, while the AW3426DW launched in the middle of this year and therefore has a newer panel. But both are made by Samsung and feature vivid colors and inky blacks.

On the AW3426DW in particular, our color testing showed that the screen was accurate out of the box, and like most QD-OLED screens, the panel was colorful and well-balanced. If you do, though, want to make a couple of minor adjustments, you can achieve 105% coverage of the DCI-P3 space.

We saw similar results in our testing of the smaller AW2725DF, which again proves that either option is excellent. If you're looking to upgrade your screen for gaming or gaming and productivity, these are two of the best options available -- especially at these record-low price points. — Matt Safford

240 Hz OLED gaming monitor now just $269 — 2560 Acer Nitro with QD panel is $81 off

So many things in the PC space (and pretty much everywhere else) are more expensive these days. But the price of OLED monitors continues to decline, as evidenced by this 27-inch, 240 Hz model (VG277U Xbiip) from Acer's Nitro line. It sports a 240 Hz QD-OLED panel rated at 400 Nits of brightness and a 0.03 ms response time. That's a lot of monitor for the current Walmart asking price of $269.

We haven't tested this monitor, so we can't vouch for its performance. But Acer typically makes solid gaming panels, and the QD-OLED panel ensures that the blacks will be truly black and the colors should be vivid. The 400-nit brightness rating isn't the best for an OLED, but it should be more than sufficient, unless you like to game in a bright, sunlit room.

The VG277U Xbiip has one DisplayPort (1.4) and two HDMI (2.1) ports. The bezels are also barely there, save for a small lip at the bottom. And of course, AMD FreeSync Premium is supported, and you should see smooth performance in gaming with an Nvidia card as well. - Matthew Safford

This 1440p, 27-inch LG gaming monitor is a steal for under $140

While the Big Deal Days haven't technically started, Amazon's deals right now include this LG curved gaming monitor for just $142. The 27-inch LG 27GS60QC-B Ultragear is a good option on a budget and, for less than $150, easily rivals the competition at this price point.

You're getting a 27-inch display there with a 1440p resolution, so this is a good upgrade to consider if you're still rocking a 1080p display. It has a 180Hz refresh rate, along with a 1ms GtG response time. It's a VA panel, so you can expect higher contrast and deeper blacks than IPS rivals, and it comes with AMD FreeSync support to eliminate screen tearing completely. - Ben Stockton

Five-star Alienware AW2725DF 360 Hz OLED monitor drops to its lowest-ever price of $469 — get 25% off this ‘near-perfect display for gaming or productivity’

Perhaps it’s the high prices of… pretty much everything else, but we are seeing lots of deals on modestly sized 27-inch monitors this Prime Big Deal Days, and at its lowest-ever price of $469 at Amazon, this one stands out. When we reviewed the AW2725DF, we called it “a near-perfect display for gaming or productivity when space is limited,” and praised the screen for its stunningly fast 360 Hz refresh rate and smoothness, while delivering a wider color gamut than even other OLED monitors.

When we reviewed this screen in 2024, it beat the next most colorful 27-inch OLED we had tested by 10%, which is enough to notice. And we found the color to be accurate in both DCI-P3 and sRGB, with no need for calibration. Hands down, this is one of the best-looking compact OLED monitors out of the box, and considering it was priced at $900 when we looked at it in 2024, its current sale price is hard to ignore. — Joe Shields

Save an incredible $150 on this Acer 27-inch Nitro 1440p 270Hz IPS gaming monitor

If you aren’t upgrading your RAM, storage, or graphics card because of AI armageddon, there are some excellent monitor deals to keep you occupied in the meantime.

For example, the Acer Nitro (XV270U Z1bmiiprx) is available from Newegg right now for $179.99. It features a 27-inch 2560x1440 (WQHD) IPS panel supporting up to a 270 Hz refresh rate over DisplayPort (144Hz over HDMI). While its brightness isn’t the highest we’ve seen at 250 nits, it does support AMD FreeSync Premium technology to eliminate screen tearing, and it has a fast 0.55ms GTG response time that reduces ghosting. The IPS panel support 99% sRGB color gamut for accurate color reproduction and Acer VisionCare technologies (think blue light shield, flicker-free tech, etc).

The Nitro features thin bezel "Zero Frame" technology and is supported by the ‘Ergostand’ with Tilt, swivel, pivot, and height adjustment capabilities. If you happen to require sound, it also has two integrated speakers (2W each). In all, this is a great deal on a solid monitor. If you’re at 1080p or already using a lower-refresh-rate 1440p monitor, the Acer Nitro XV270U is a worthwhile upgrade. — Brandon Hill

Get an Arzopa 16.1-inch 180Hz 1440p portable monitor for just $132

If you skew more towards the gaming side of things in your requirements for a portable monitor and require more than the standard 60Hz refresh rate, the Arzopa Z3FC is available with a solid 22 percent discount, bringing its price to $132.98.

Arzopa is well known for producing quality monitors at affordable prices, and the Z3FC is no exception. I tested the monitor earlier this year and was impressed with its build quality, color performance, and speed. It also helps that it comes with a handy fabric storage sleeve to protect the screen when traveling.

The Z3FC features a relatively large 16.1-inch IPS panel, which is just outside the 15.4-inch baseline for portable monitors. That size affords a 2560 x 1440 resolution instead of the standard 1080p. Add in the 180 Hz refresh rate, up from the standard 60 Hz on most portable monitors, and you have a great monitor you can pair with your Nintendo Switch on the go, or even an Xbox or PlayStation in a pinch. — Brandon Hill
