Best Buy is rolling out an unbeatable one-day deal on the 27" Samsung ViewFinity S8 4K monitor, slashing the price to just $169.99. This is a significant markdown from the $350 price tag on Samsung's website, though this model does not include a USB Type-C port. If you're in the market for a monitor that delivers crisp, high-resolution visuals at a budget-friendly price, this is a deal you don't want to miss. The ViewFinity S8 may not be the top pick for gamers due to better alternatives available, but it shines as a productivity powerhouse.

The Samsung ViewFinity S8 boasts a 27" display with true 4K resolution (3840x2160), resulting in an impressive pixel density of 163ppi. The only sharper option in this size range is the 27" 5K monitor, like the one Apple offers for a steep $1600. With this deal, you could set up a dual 27" multi-monitor setup with double 4K UHD resolution for a fraction of the cost of a Samsung Neo G9 57" double 4K UHD monitor. This level of sharpness is ideal for tasks requiring pixel-perfect clarity or text-heavy productivity work, although it might be overkill for gaming, especially considering the need for a more powerful GPU.
The monitor is designed with productivity in mind, featuring an IPS panel with wide viewing angles and a color-accurate 99% sRGB color space. Connectivity options include HDMI and DisplayPort, along with USB Type-A and Type-B ports. With a refresh rate of 60Hz, it's clear this monitor prioritizes professional use over gaming performance.
Remember, this is Best Buy's deal of the day, expiring at midnight. If you're looking to enhance your workspace further, consider exploring the best office chairs (which are also great for gaming) and the best standing desks.
