Our Favorite Prime Day Monitor Deal

The Samsung Odyssey G51C runs in the same Samsung lineup as the Samsung Odyssey Neo G8 and the Samsung Odyssey G7, both of which are some of the best gaming monitors on the market, so the G5 comes with an impressive pedigree and is one of the best Prime Day deals to pick up. With a 2k resolution and an impressive 165Hz refresh rate, you have a lot of leeway with how you can run your games, either with a focus on FPS for things like Fortnite or a focus on resolution and graphical settings, such as with CyberPunk 2077. The G5 also has an impressively short response time of 1 ms (MPRT), making it snappy and great for games with a lot of action. It also runs AMD FreeSync Premium, which still works perfectly fine even if you’re on an Nvidia graphics card.

Besides everything mentioned above, it also comes with HDR10 and a peak brightness of roughly 300 nits without HDR on, so it’s perfectly fine to use in a well-light room or in the daytime without any issues. That also means you get really vibrant images and high contrast, so you can enjoy gaming, watching stuff, and potentially even doing some graphical work if you feel like it. All that said, one of the most impressive things about this monitor is that the discount from Best Buy brings it down to just $250, rather than the usual $400, which is an incredible price for a monitor with so many features.

More Prime Day Monitor Deals We Love

Of course, if the Samsung Odyssey G5 doesn’t quite tickle your fancy, there are a lot of other great Prime Day monitor deals to take advantage of, but let’s take a look at some of our favorite picks!

While a lot of content has gone digital these days, including things like cloud storage services allowing us to store our files online, having a physical form of storage to keep with you is important. In a similar vein, it's frustrating that some of the best phones on the market don't even come with a lot of internal space, while most laptop deals you take advantage of also likely will land you with less than 1TB of storage. To that end, we've gone out and collected some of our favorite external hard drive deals we could find and collected them below, and some of them are even the best external hard drives on the market, so be sure to check out all our picks.

While you hopefully won't need it, it also comes with 3-years of data recovery service, which is a nice plus at this price bracket.
