One of the coolest things about USB-C tech is its ability to output standard video, and combine it with charging and data for a single-cable solution when you plug your laptop into a monitor. Alas, those monitors still command a serious price premium. Which is why this deal for an HP 27-inch 1440p monitor, complete with USB-C powers, is so sweet. It’s going for as little as $130 today.
To be precise, this HP E27u G4 monitor is on sale for $150 flat, already a huge discount from its $424 retail price. But according to the persistent posters at SlickDeals, you can score an additional $20 off if you’re a new customer to the HP online store, create a new account, and wait for a $20 off discount code to hit your inbox. It might take an hour or two, but it’s worth it.
Even if you don’t feel like waiting around, $150 for a 27-inch, QHD (2560×1440) monitor is already a darn good deal. In addition to USB-C video with up to 65 watts of laptop charging and four USB-A ports for extra gadgets, it’s packing standard HDMI and DisplayPort for more conventional connections. The IPS panel is good enough for serious media production thanks to its color accuracy, even if it’s not going to be speedy enough for a dedicated gaming monitor.
With a 64 percent discount even before the coupon-cutting, this deal might run out quickly. Get an order in fast if you’re ready for it.
