Prime Day computer monitor deals — what to watch for

Computer monitors don't have the biggest track record for Prime Day sales, but we can tell you about the features you'll need. QHD monitors give you a ton of screen space for multitasking and video gaming alike. While those monitors can get more expensive, they're worth it. 

We're listing only 1080p-and-above monitors here, because you deserve full HD resolution, and nothing less. If anyone tries to sell you a sub-FHD display, you can tell them to drop it off at the junkyard. 

Looking to watch a lot of Netflix? Displays with HDR10 support will give you rich color profiles that let you view your favorite shows as the creators intended. 

Lastly, make sure the display you buy supports the ports you're already working with. HDMI is the current entry-level standard, but some legacy systems offer only VGA (which some of these computer monitors also support).

Make sure to check out the best Prime Day laptop deals, if you're in the market to upgrade the system you're connecting to your display.
