Monitors under $200 for that last-minute working from home setup
Working from home for the first day or two feels great. Working from home for a week with no end in sight has you watching more Disney+ than working.
We won’t make you admit that, though working from home is comfy, you were probably more productive in the office when laying in bed and not getting dressed for the day aren’t options.
Best Buy and Dell want to help with the first one: A slew of 22-inch to 27-inch monitors are on sale for less than $200. There’s probably no reason to spend $500 on a monitor if you don’t work at home full time, but it’s a small addition that can really make your home desk a more professional space. (This person at Inc. uses three (three!!!) monitors to boost productivity.)
Our favorite steal at Dell is this 27-inch 1080p monitor that features a stellar 178°/178° viewing angle and Dell’s Comfort View to minimize blue light. Compatibility with AMD Radeon FreeSync and a 75Hz refresh rate make it possible to switch to Apex Legends when you need a break. Regularly $259.99, you can save $75 and get it for $184.99. Models in bold are eligible for an extra 17% off the sale price with code EXTRA17.
Other monitors under $200 include:
Our favorite steal at Best Buy is this 24-inch curved 1080p monitor from Samsung. It’s not on sale, but it’s still a decently-sized curved monitor for $170. That panoramic view can make even the most boring presentations or articles immersive, and the 4ms response time takes the blurring and ghosting out of gaming.
