What looks better than a Thanksgiving dinner cooked by your grandmother? How about Ultra 4K graphics processed and transmitted from the finest gaming GPU to the clearest monitor on the market?
It at least comes in a close second, right? Although you can’t buy yourself a new Grandmother this holiday shopping season, you can replace your old shoddy monitor with a new one. You can do this for just a fraction of the regular retail price too.
By now, we all should know that the most convenient time to shop for new displays during the holiday shopping season is on Cyber Monday. Now that we’ve shown you how to get the best out of Black Friday’s monitor deals, in this guide, we’ll show you how to exploit the best deals on screens during Cyber Monday.
Monitor Deals on Cyber Monday
As the name implies, Cyber Monday comprises of unique online exclusives to encourage shoppers to shop online. Online shopping is technically easier than visiting a physical store; however, it can be a bit difficult for people who aren’t internet savvy.
Since omniscience is virtually impossible (at least for now), even experts need help from time to time. In this guide, we’ll provide this help in the form of a list of the best retailers to shop from as well as a list of the best Cyber Monday deals.
Best Cyber Monday Monitor Retailers
Instead of Googling or chasing deals by search engine results, you’ll be better off picking a top three of the best retailers and comparing their prices. In this section, we’ll cover the best retailers to shop for the best monitor deals during Cyber Monday.
Amazon
You should not be surprised to see this entry on our list. Jeff Bezo’s empire was built off online shopping. You can trust that Amazon and its partner stores will have some of the biggest savings on Cyber Monday.
An illustration of what we can expect from this Amazon this year is the Dell UltraSharp U2715H 27-Inch Screen LED monitor, which was on sale for $329 during last year’s Cyber Monday. Shoppers could have saved $100, as the RRP is $429. It is the perfect 27-inch monitor for gaming.
Samsung 49-Inch CRG90 – $1049.99 (Save $450)
Samsung CRG90 is a giant, curved, high-res, beast of a gaming monitor. Right now, it’s on sale for 30% less than usual!
If you have qualms about shopping from Amazon for whatever reason, then NewEgg is more than a worthy substitute.
Just look at the 2018 Cyber Monday deal they had on the LG 32MU99-W 31.5″ last year. It usually sells for $745 but NewEgg had it on sale for $649. The built-in speakers and high refresh rate make this one of the best 4K monitors that money can buy.
Best Buy
Best Buy is one of the biggest sellers of discounted consumer electronics in Northern America. While they’re known more for their nearly omnipresent chain of brick-and-mortar stores, they also have a well-organized but minimalistic web-store.
For those of you who were in search of a gaming monitor under $300 last year, Best Buy was selling the Samsung UE590 Series 28” monitor for $249, reduced from $369 during their Cyber Monday sale.
Walmart
Walmart is another retailer known more for its impressive chain of stores. In fact, it has the biggest chain of stores in America. But of course, every good retailer needs a web-store, lest they get left in the mud.
One of Walmart’s most noteworthy Cyber Monday deals of 2018 was the Samsung 32” Curved F394 LED Monitor. It was on sale for $168, reduced from its regular price of $229.
Office Depot and Office Max
Don’t let the name fool you. Office Depot and Office Max have some of the best savings on gaming monitors.
A prime example of this is the MSI Optix G24C 24” FHD Gaming Monitor they had on sale last year. Gamers could get it for $149.99, reduced from its normal price of $249. With prices that low, you could have bought two of these screens and had set up a dual-monitor arrangement for yourself.
In this section, we have listed some current and future Cyber Weekend deals. I hope that you will spot a deal worth capitalizing on. You might see some deals from retailers who have not made the top five best retailers for Cyber Monday monitor deals.
The majority of these deals are currently live and will be until the 7th of December.
Samsung Space 32-Inch SR75 UHD 4K Computer Monitor
You may be wondering what tips you really need. All you really have to do is find the cheapest monitor and then click on buy, right? No, wrong. There are a few things you have to note before buying a new screen. In this section, we will talk about them.
1. Shop by Spec, Not By Brand
Before you shop for a monitor, you need to understand your desires and needs. What resolution are you expecting the monitor to be? Are built-in speakers or a USB-C port necessary? You may be tempted to buy a monitor purely based on the trust you have for a brand but if you want to save more on Cyber Monday, you will have to exercise a bit of savviness.
2. Look for Bundle Offers, Not Just Savings
Some monitor screens come bundled with internal speakers, while others may be sold bundled with an external pair. Do not just look for price cuts on the products themselves but instead pay attention to any price cuts on same-day or next-day shipping. A lot of Cyber Monday deals will have free shipping.
3. Make Sure the Monitor Is Compatible
Make sure that you have the right graphics card and cabling to connect your monitor to your computer. When holiday shopping season fever hits, people often make rash decisions without reading the fine print. Instead of purchasing a monitor, you may end up buying an all in one touch screen computer.
Slow down and make sure you have all you need before you checkout.
Final Thoughts
This Cyber Monday, many retailers will be trying to wrestle some traffic away from Amazon.com. You can expect some truly exceptional deals. Hopefully, this guide will make your hunt for monitors on Cyber Monday a whole lot easier. As always, thank you for reading and happy shopping.
