Best Buy's Flash Sale: 27" Samsung ViewFinity S8 4K Monitor for $169.99
For a limited time, Best Buy is offering a significant discount on the 27" Samsung ViewFinity S8 4K monitor, priced at just $169.99. This represents a substantial savings compared to the Samsung-listed price of $350, although it lacks a USB Type-C port. Despite this omission, this remains an exceptional value for a monitor boasting exceptional clarity.

The Samsung ViewFinity S8 is a 27-inch monitor with a true 4K (3840x2160) resolution, resulting in a sharp 163ppi. Only 27" 5K monitors offer superior clarity. Consider a dual-monitor setup for near-equivalent resolution to the Samsung Neo G9 57" double 4K UHD monitor at a fraction of the cost. This exceptional sharpness, while ideal for detail-oriented tasks, isn't optimized for gaming (especially given the need for a high-performance GPU). It excels in productivity applications requiring pixel-perfect precision and clear text rendering.
Its features are tailored for productivity. The IPS panel provides wide viewing angles and accurate 99% sRGB color space. Connectivity includes HDMI and DisplayPort, along with USB Type-A and Type-B ports. The 60Hz refresh rate is suitable for productivity but not high-frame-rate gaming.
