While calling it “Prime Day” is a sort of a misnomer, as the event should technically be called “Prime Days” since it covers the 16th and 17th, all things must come to an end. And now, you have hours, not days, to finish selecting your purchases for Prime Day. That means that hot Prime Day monitor deals are ending soon. Here, we want to take a look at the best of one of your very favorite categories, the curved gaming monitor. These three Prime Day deals, from Amazon as well as from Samsung and Best Buy — who both happen to be having “Black Friday in July” sales on the exact days Prime Day is going on — are some of the best going on. While there’s always a chance that some deals will sneak past Prime Day, odds are your time is limited to pick up these offers.
This AOC curved monitor is one of the best cheap gaming monitors you can pull, at least in the curved category, this Prime Day. As part of Best Buy Prime Day deals, this 32-inch 1440p at 165Hz monitor is quite heavily discounted. It has AMD FreeSync Premium to pair with that 165Hz to keep things smooth as you play. A 1ms response time and Low Input Lag Mode will make gaming feel responsive and agile. As for the curve, it is the classic 1000R that you see on many monitors of this type. Gaming features on this curved gaming monitor include the AOC Shadow Control and AOC Game Color quick adjustment features. With AOC Shadow Control, as an example, you can rapidly adjust grey and darkened areas to be more visible for a quick check at what might be lurking in the shadows, or increase the darkness for an extra challenge. It’s no wonder that, at this price, the AOC 32-inch LCD Curved QHD Premium Monitor has such a great rating on Best Buy.

Brought to you by Samsung Prime Day deals, the stat line of the 34-inch Samsung Odyssey G55T is going to feel pretty familiar if you’ve been reading closely. It’s got a 1440p resolution, 1ms response time, up to 165Hz refresh rate, and a 1000R curve. Oh, and it has AMD FreeSync Premium, too. So, it is all in the few extra inches or the Samsung name that makes this monitor cost more? Well, partially, yes. But there’s more to it than that. The easy to access back area for HDMI and USB insertion, small profile stand, and elegant presentation in dark black are all relevant, too. This is not a monitor that you should feel disappointed with.
Is the biggest the bestest? Possibly. If you’ve been eyeing the ultrawide monitor craze from afar, worried about price, you have a few hours left to jump into the fray without hurting your bank account too much. Samsung’s giant Odyssey OLED G9 features an immersive 5120 x 1440p panel bent in an 1800R curve. It’s quick 240Hz refresh rate and 0.3ms response time keep things incredibly smooth across the full expanse. The true immensity of this monitor cannot be understated, with our Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 review giving the monitor a skirting comparison to VR. Furthermore, the monitor has the Tizen smart TV OS built-in (and it comes with a remote control) making this also a great TV for watching widescreen cinematic experiences in a way you’ve not yet experienced them.
The absolutely absurd idea of putting a touchscreen display on a mouse isn't exactly new. Turtle Beach already did it with its Command Series MC7, which features a 2.25-inch control screen. But apparently, even that wasn't ridiculous enough for Arctic Fox Technologies. Its new Super Mouse looks like someone took the chunky old Atari ST mouse, slapped a touchscreen and scroll wheel on it, and called it an upgrade.
The result is a rather unusual-looking mouse that is now on Kickstarter, starting at $199. And as ridiculous as it looks, some of its features are genuinely intriguing.
Apple is less than a day away from launching its highly anticipated OLED MacBook Pro with a touch-sensitive screen. But it appears that the upgrade is going to cost a pretty penny. According to a report by Bloomberg, Apple is reportedly eyeing a starting price of $2,899 for the 14-inch MacBook Pro, while the 16-inch version could start at $3,399 in the US.
"At $2,899, the 14-inch model would mark the highest starting price for a new MacBook Pro model, surpassing the $2,799 Apple charged for a 17-inch version introduced in 2006," says the report. The report claims that Apple is targeting a minimum price hike of $400 for its upcoming redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models.
I've spent a good amount of time digging into the spec sheet of the new M6 MacBook Pro (14-inch), and for all intents and purposes, this is a classic Apple "chip and connectivity" refresh. It's not a full redesign. The chassis, Liquid Retina XDR panel, speakers, ports, and battery, all of them carry over unchanged.
However, the M6 brings more cores, stronger on-device AI, higher memory bandwidth on the larger configs, and modern wireless. Here’s the practical rundown of what actually improved, and whether those gains are worth your money.
