I think we’re rapidly approaching the point where 1080p monitors will be a relic of the past — and as a multi-monitor addict, I’m here for it.
If you’re ready to make the upgrade but you’re on a budget, Amazon is selling a 27-inch 1440p IPS monitor by Dell for just $150 today. That’s a hefty $70 discount off its retail price.
The Dell S2725DS is a fairly basic design, but its upgraded size, resolution, and IPS panel (a step above the usual budget VA designs) make it great for anything that needs color accuracy, like editing photos or videos. It offers dual HDMI connections (one of which is weirdly hidden behind a plastic panel) and DisplayPort to boot. This model doesn’t have any extra USB ports, but the USB-C variant (model S2725DC) is also on sale on Amazon for a reasonable $180.
This monitor makes for a great second (or third) display in any desktop setup, thanks to its thin bezels, basic connections, and a VESA mount for a monitor arm. The 100Hz panel is a minor upgrade — I wouldn’t call this a “gaming monitor” without at least 120Hz — and the dinky built-in speakers really aren’t worth using. Otherwise, it’s a solid value.
Grab it now for just $150 while you can. If Amazon runs out of stock (which often happens for big discounts like this one), Dell is selling it for the same price on its online store.
