If you have a few extra bucks to spend on a jaw-dropping gaming monitor, Amazon is the place to go today. The online retailer is selling a curved, 49-inch Samsung 5120-by-1440 120Hz display for $900. That’s about $200 off the usual sticker price, as well as the all-time low for this monitor.
This type of monitor is considered “super ultrawide” since it has double the horizontal pixel count compared to standard 2560-by-1440p monitors, and it also boasts an immersive 1800R curvature. The 120Hz display is also rocking FreeSync for ultra-smooth frames during gameplay, along with a response time of 4 milliseconds.
But that’s not all. This is also a true high dynamic range (HDR) monitor packing DisplayHDR 1000. HDR allows for a greater range of colors and brightness, making for a more vibrant image. HDR made its bones on 4K televisions, but even at sub-4K resolutions, HDR can dramatically improve image quality.
If you’re not a gamer, there are still some enticing advantages to using this monitor. With double the width and an aspect ratio of 32:9, the monitor can receive two inputs and essentially function as two 2560-by-1440p monitors.
