For today only, Best Buy is offering the 27" Samsung ViewFinity S8 4K monitor for just $169.99—a steal compared to its usual $350 price tag at Samsung (though note, this model omits the USB Type-C port). This represents exceptional value for one of the sharpest monitors available. While not ideal for gaming (dedicated gaming monitors offer superior performance), the ViewFinity S8 excels as a productivity powerhouse.
Today Only: 60% Off 27" Samsung ViewFinity S8 4K Monitor
$419.99 $169.99 at Best Buy
The Samsung ViewFinity S8 is a 27-inch monitor boasting a true 4K (3840x2160) resolution, resulting in a crisp 163ppi. Only 27-inch 5K models (like Apple's premium offering at $1600) offer superior sharpness. Imagine a dual 27-inch setup—nearly matching the size of a Samsung Neo G9 57" double 4K UHD monitor but at a fraction of the cost, delivering double the 4K UHD resolution. This incredible detail, combined with the smaller screen size, is less suited to gaming (especially considering the need for a high-end GPU), but perfect for pixel-perfect work and text-heavy tasks.
Its features are also geared towards productivity. The IPS panel provides wide viewing angles and accurate 99% sRGB color reproduction. Connectivity includes HDMI, DisplayPort, USB Type-A, and USB Type-B ports. The 60Hz refresh rate is perfectly adequate for its intended use, but not designed for high-frame-rate gaming.
Remember, this Best Buy deal is for today only and likely expires at midnight. Looking to upgrade your entire workspace? Check out our picks for the best office chairs (great for gaming too!) and the best standing desks.
