Prime Day monitor deals are back this October, so here's my cheat sheet for what to expect

Menu

Prime Day monitor deals are officially back for round two in 2025, as Amazon just officially announced its October sale. The sequel event is a second chance to grab savings on screens and give your PC or console setup a revamp before the year ends, and I'm fully expecting the top OLED, mini IPS, and cheaper IPS 4K monitors to hit record lows.

Dubbed "Big Deal Days", you'll be able to once again grab Prime Day monitor deals from October 7-8. That means you've theoretically got two days to grab savings on the best gaming monitor models at the retailer, but if this isn't your first rodeo, you'll know this is simply the start of the sale season.

Simply put, while Prime Day should boast some unique deals, you'll want to keep an eye on the retailer in the lead-up to and after the event. During the July event, I spotted plenty of panels dropping to their lowest prices before things even kicked off, and some even failed to show up to the actual party. Therefore, I'll be here keeping an eye on deals and early savings so you don't miss out.

What to expect from October Prime Day monitor deals

I was pretty impressed with July's Prime Day monitor deals, but Big Deal Days should do one better. Now that we're more than halfway through 2025, I'm expecting some of last year's top models to drop even further in price, and I wouldn't be surprised if we see 1080p panels plummet to well under $100 too.

As for specifics, I'd keep a close eye on everything OLED. While the panel type used to sit at well over $1,000, I'm seeing more and more models at under $500. Some of my personal 27-inch favorites include the Samsung Odyssey OLED G6, the budget-friendly KTC G27P6, and the punchy Sony Inzone M10S, and I'm fully expecting all three to drift a chunk under a grand. MSI is also making waves with its MAG screens, and I'm holding out for its 1440p 273QP model venturing under $500.

On the more premium side of things, I'm eyeing up the 32-inch LG UltraGear 32GS95UE-B and the Dough Spectrum Black 32. Both these models use the same OLED panel with MLA+ tech, something that helps them keep up with even expensive gaming TVs like the LG OLED G4. Ideally, I'll be looking for 4K OLED displays like this to dip under $900 since that represents a general record low.

,Dell also likes to chime in on Prime Day, and last year's models are well worth watching. I'd specifically keep tabs on the QD-OLED Alienware AW2725DF, which should hopefully drop to somewhere in the region of $500. I'd absolutely love to see the Alienware AW2725Q establish some record-breaking discounts too, but there might not be much motion since it's a 2025 model.

At the mid to entry-level side of things, you're more likely to save between $80-150 on most monitors. By in large, screens at this price point are either 1080p or 1440p, but often feature faster refresh rates and useful PC gaming features. The Acer ED273U Abmiipx serves as a nice example of what's possible during a Prime Day event, as Amazon dropped its price from $259.99 to $173.95. A pretty nifty saving on a curved 75Hz display, and one that's sure to appeal to lower-spec PC gamers and anyone looking for an affordable desktop PS5 monitor.

One thing that is worthwhile is considering lesser-known brands. Don't get me wrong, I'd advise against jumping at deals that are too good to be true, but there are displays out there that cost far less despite featuring fantastic specs. A great example is the KTC G27P6, a screen that uses the same LG OLED panel as the Corsair Xeneon 27QHD240 and is known to drop under $600 even outside of Prime Day. We'll be keeping a close eye on this great value display, as it could be one of the best deals this year.

We've highlighted a number of July's best Prime Day monitor deals below. We'll likely see something similar on the newer models too. It's also worth noting that anything older will probably be best when it comes to value for money. This is because of the general fall in price in addition to the Prime Day sales. So anything from 2022 or 2023 is probably a good shout.

What to expect from Prime Day portable monitor deals

If you're looking to free yourself from the tyranny of desktop cables, Prime Day portable monitor deals might be on your mind. Luckily, there are options out there that'll help you cut the cord, and we suspect a few more might show up for the big event. That's a huge win for any of you planning to usher in the holiday season using the best gaming handheld, as lightweight screens can make for a killer on-the-go gaming setup for parties, camping, and other outdoor activities.

There are a variety of unknown and budget brands out there, and you might already be eyeing up a bargain screen. However, if you're holding out for something by a well-known brand, you'll want to keep an eye on the likes of ASUS' ROG Strix 17.3-inch portable monitor. Armed with a 240Hz panel, this on-the-go solution has what it takes to keep up with dedicated desktop displays, and its built in battery will provide up to three hours of cordless performance using the faster refresh rate.

It's also worth keeping an eye out for the Jsaux FlipGo, a dual portable monitor that works great with laptops and PC. The mobile screen hasn't hit Amazon as of yet, but when it does, it's a strong contender for a Prime Day discount. If you want to stick to as near $100 as possible, the Verbatim Portable Touchscreen Monitor is also a solid option, as we're hoping it'll dip from $219.99 to just under $130. Just keep in mind that not every option will boast qualities like a built-in battery, so make sure to carefully consider your setup needs before clicking buy.

FAQ

What monitor brand is most reliable?

Some of our favorite brands include Acer, Asus, Alienware, Dell, Samsung, and LG, and you've likely heard of many longstanding companies. That said, there are some options out there without a recognisable brand that provide a good experience, and Prime Day often features deals on these models. For the most part, we'd advise sticking to products we've tested, as that way you can rest assured they are good quality.

Is 144Hz gaming monitor worth it?

A 144Hz gaming monitor is absolutely worth the investment if you play first-person shooters, battle royales, or similar online games with competitive elements. Not only does the responsiveness give you an edge over monitors with lesser displays but it generally creates a better overall experience by being able to keep up with the action. It's ideal for games like Apex Legends, Call of Duty: Warzone, or Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege.

What monitors are the cheapest during Prime Day?

For the most part, the cheapest monitors during Prime Day will be older 1080p models that already feature a low price tag. In the past we've witnessed screens that cost around $120 drop below $100, while more expensive screens receive a larger discount proportionate to their price tag.
