The best OLED deal for Prime Day is this $470 gaming monitor

I regret to inform you, readers, that OLED gaming monitors are a little more expensive this year than last year. In fact, the AOC Agon Pro 27-inch, QHD OLED monitor is about 18 percent pricier than it was during the last Prime Day sale…gee, I wonder why. Still, $469.99 for an OLED gaming monitor on Amazon is a darn good deal.

The AOC AG276QZD2 is rocking familiar specs, with a 27-inch, 2560×1440 panel that’s positively zippy at 240Hz. While not the fastest OLED on the market, that should be more than enough for the sweatiest of online multiplayer shooter fans.

Features are a bit on the basic side — Amazon’s listing says this monitor has USB-C, but I’m not seeing that from AOC’s actual product page or other reviews. The real thing appears to rely on just two USB-A ports, one of which has a little extra juice for charging. That means you’ll be plugging in multiple cables if you want to use this with a gaming laptop.

Still, if you’re looking to upgrade to OLED for the absolute lowest price on a new display, this is about as good as it gets for the moment. Amazon’s price is exclusive to Prime subscribers (here’s how to get in for cheap), but you can get this monitor for just a few dollars more from Best Buy, no subscription required.
