I review monitors for a living — and these are 9 Labor Day deals I recommend

This curved monitor packs its own speakers (unlike some others on this list), and it's VESA mount-ready for saving space. Add to that a 75Hz refresh rate and the fact that this is the lowest price we've seen, and you've got a compelling budget option.

If you just need a basic 1080p monitor for your desk, this 24-inch ViewSonic looks to be perfectly suitable thanks to its HDMI hookup. Plus, it offers a 100Hz refresh rate and FreeSync support.

This is a slightly better 27-inch 1080p monitor from Acer with a faster 120Hz refresh rate. However, it has just an HDMI 1.4 port and a VGA port, no DisplayPort, so as always make sure your PC has a compatible port before you buy.

This 24-incher from Dell sports a 1080p resolution with a 100Hz refresh rate, and it's also one of the few discounted productivity monitors on this list to have a built-in speaker to boot. It comes with 2 HDMI ports and an adjustable stand that can tilt, swivel and rise.

If you're looking for a nice computer monitor that won't break the bank, this 32-inch display from Dell is the perfect choice. Even at its full $359 price, it's a good deal, but with $45 off, it's definitely worth buying. It has a QHD resolution, a height-adjustable design, and HDR support.

This is a nice productivity monitor that can game in a pinch, as the 32-inch IPS display is capable of achieving 4K resolution (3840 x 2160 pixels) at a refresh rate of 60Hz. And since it supports AMD FreeSync, you can count on some smooth entry-level gaming performance.

Alienware delivers some amazing gaming monitors, and this 34-inch AW3425DWM monitor is no different. You'll get a 34-inch WQHD (3440 x 1440) with a 180Hz refresh rate and 1ms response rate, along with a spacey 21:9 aspect ratio and a 1500R curvature. We adored the Alienware AW3425DW, and while its specs aren't quite as good, for this price, this monitor is well worth a shout.

Now $500 off, this LG UltraGear 45GX90SA-B may just be the only gaming monitor you'll ever need. We're big fans of the LG UltraGear 45GX90SA, giving it our Editor's Choice for good reason. Expect a 45-inch QHD (3440 x 1440) OLED panel with a 240Hz refresh rate, 0.003 response rate and 21:9 aspect ratio for amazing ultra-wide views. We said it "lives a secret double life as both one of the best gaming monitors you can get, and a fantastic smart TV with webOS and AI smarts."

We meet again, Samsung Odyssey OLED G9, this time with a $500 discount! If you have the space for this 49-inch beast, it's hard to beat. Expect a dual QHD (5120 x 1440) OLED panel with a 240Hz refresh rate, 0.03 response rate and Nvidia G-Sync/AMD FreeSync Premium Pro support. For gaming, productivity or watching shows, this monitor does it all at a glorious ultra-wide angle.
