Four score and seven years ago, our ancestors had no idea what it would be like to game on a massive monitor or have practically all of the world’s information accessible on a handheld device. Some of you still don’t, but good news—we found a bunch of deals on Amazon that are just in time for Presidents Day, so whether it’s a ginormous 49-inch monitor or a fancy new smartphone you’re after, you can bag one at a great price.
Part of the reason it’s so comparatively affordable (versus other 49-inch monitors) is because it’s not an OLED or mini LED display. Instead, it’s a super ultra-wide VA panel with edge lit LED backlighting. We’d prefer OLED or mini LED, but you’re not going to find either technology at this price point in a 49-inch display.
What you do get is a really long monitor with a 1000R curvature, 5120×1440 resolution (dual QHD, 32:9 aspect ratio) that’s like having two 1440p displays (but without the gap or annoying borders), 240Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, 2,500:1 contrast ratio, and HDR support with 1,000 nits of peak brightness and VESA’s DisplayHDR 1000 certification to boot.
Connectivity options include HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4, 3.5mm headphone jack, and two USB 3.0 Tyep-A ports.

Last week, we highlighted some fantastic deals on Google’s Pixel 9 family, with $200 discounts in play on the Pixel 9 Pro, bringing Google’s flagship handsets down to their lowest prices ever. Well, those discounts are still valid. Here’s a look…
Both are powered by Google’s Tensor G4 processor and 16GB of RAM. They also both sport a 42-megapixel camera on the front and three cameras on the back (50MP wide-angle, 48MP ultra-wide with macro focus, and 48MP telephoto with a 5x zoom).
