Thankfully, Amazon Prime Day 2023 is the perfect time to find any computer monitor selling at a major discount and so I've rounded up the very best deals.

Today's best Prime Day 4K monitor deals

These days, it's becoming more and more common for the majority of computer monitors to be 4K, but it isn't always guaranteed. 4K means that a monitor offers a resolution of around 4,000 pixels horizontally along the display, which typically means crisper details than lower resolution options. Here are the best 4K monitor Prime Day 2023 deals.

Prime Day 2023: What would we choose?

The exact monitor you should buy during Prime Day is going to depend on your budget and your exact needs. Are you an artist? Do you work with spreadsheets and Microsoft Office software all day? Or are you looking for something to use with the latest and greatest PC games?

Overall, it's hard to beat the value offered by the SAMSUNG G70A. The 4K display ensures a crisp, beautiful gameplay image that doesn't crush detailed textures, while the 144hz refresh rate is critical for anyone that needs to crank out high framerates for every last competitive edge. Discounted to $500 for Prime Day, this is a great choice that should appeal to most users.
