LG’s QHD gaming monitor is a great upgrade for $ 300

If you ask me, $ 300 for a QHD game monitor that has Nvidia’s G-Sync compatibility and a fantastic IPS panel is a great price. That’s how much the 27-inch LG UltraGear QHD model costs – $ 100 below its normal price on B&H Photo and Amazon. This monitor has a subtle design and fine settings and, in terms of features, it has a refresh rate of 144 Hz, a response time of 1 ms and covers 99 percent of the sRGB color spectrum. In terms of ports, it has two HDMI ports, a DisplayPort and a 3.5 mm output for desktop speakers or headphones.

For the lucky ones who have gotten a new Nvidia RTX 30 series graphics card, or a powerful AMD GPU for their PC, or who have an Xbox Series X, a 1440p gaming monitor like this is a must-have piece of technology. The games will get better and everything will be clearer than ever.

If you have a road trip coming up and there is no easy way to keep your phone charged, check out iOttie’s offerings on Amazon on Qi wireless charging phone holders. These are simple panel holders to keep your phone in view, but they are packaged in a wireless charging coil that looks a lot easier than fiddling with a cable while your eyes should be on the road. They are usually sold for $ 55, but now have a $ 20 discount. You can get a panel support that can be fixed using a suction cup or a support that attaches to your car’s CD slot or vent.

The Twelve South AirFly Pro Bluetooth receiver / transmitter costs $ 41 on Amazon (usually $ 55). This model got the best scores from Dieter Bohn compared to some other popular transmitters that make it easy to pair your Bluetooth headphones for, say, onboard entertainment or technology like a Nintendo Switch. Unlike some others, it has USB-C recharge and long battery life. In addition, its 3.5mm cable is integrated, so you are not afraid to lose it. I know most of us aren’t flying around yet, but this can be a good investment in gadgets for the future.
