How we choose the best Prime Day monitor deals
Many of us here at CNET have covered shopping events for several years, including Black Friday, Prime Day, Memorial Day and countless other sales. In that time, we've learned how to spot the best deals among a sea of thousands of superficial offers and scams, and we only surface the best offers from trusted retailers. We look for real discounts, quality reviews and remaining sale time when choosing monitor deals to show you.
- Real discounts mean genuine savings. We check pricing history for products listed as on sale so we know when it's a case of an inflated list price rather than an actual discount.
- Quality reviews and testing are super important for any product. A discount isn't worthwhile if it results in a subpar product experience, no matter how much you saved.
- Remaining sale time is important, too. Some deals are only around for a short time or may be limited in supply. If that's the case, we'll let you know upfront so you don't come back to the deal later only to be disappointed.
When was Amazon's October Prime Day 2024?
Amazon's second event in October is Prime Big Deal Days, which started on Oct. 8 and ended at midnight PT on Oct. 9. During the event, there were many incredible savings, particularly on Amazon devices and with other popular tech such as TVs, gaming consoles, home security, and other items. For many shoppers, this event marks the beginning of the holiday shopping season.
Are monitors really cheaper on Prime Day?
Prime Day always offers a variety of products for a considerable discount, and among these are monitors -- for gaming, office work or casual browsing. And yes, on Prime Day, monitors really are cheaper, giving you the chance to bag a great deal without breaking the bank -- even after the event with the above remaining deals. But if you're looking for the cheapest deals, Black Friday tends to offer the very lowest prices. So, if you can hold out until later in the holiday shopping season, we do recommend it. That said, Black Friday tends to have more limited stock and supplies, so weigh up both the pros and the cons before making a decision.
Which monitor brand is most reliable?
Each monitor brand has its own pros and cons, but if we had to choose our favorite, you can't really go wrong with Alienware or Dell. Alienware's commitment to quality and size truly enhances gaming experiences, no matter if you love your first-person shooters or cozy farming simulators. Then there's Dell, with monitors that regularly deliver a broad color gamut, a variety of USB ports and connections, and incredible audio and visual quality.
