OLED monitor deals were on fire last year, but in 2025 it’s been a lot harder to find one that’s affordable. (Okay, affordable is a relative metric — it’s been harder to find a significantly discounted one.) Things are finally starting to settle back down, though. Take this AOC Agon monitor as an example: Today it’s going for just $449.99 on Amazon.
The Agon AG276QZD2 is hitting at about the baseline for a current OLED, with the familiar 27-inch, 2560×1440 panel and 240Hz refresh rate, a definite upgrade over lower-priced monitors just a year ago. That’s fast enough to handle the twitchy gameplay of online shooters like Counter-Strike and Valorant, while still delivering the gorgeous colors and perfect contrast that make OLED so desirable. You can read more in PCWorld’s full review of this monitor, which didn’t fare great at $1,000, but looks a lot more palatable at less than half that price.
This basic model is still a little spare when it comes to expansion options, with no USB-C port and just two USB-A ports for accessories. So it’s not a great companion to a gaming laptop, though double HDMI and DisplayPort options make it a good choice if you like to have game consoles next to your desktop PC.
This is the lowest I’ve seen a name-brand 240Hz OLED go in a while, but you might have more options for Black Friday later this month. If you’re still looking, be sure to check out PCWorld’s roundup of the best monitors on the market.
