Black Friday monitor deals are often hard to gauge. There are just so many monitors, so many different price points, and such confusing names for all the monitors on offer. However, it’s gonna take something big to top this Black Friday deal on the Philips Evnia 34M2C8600 for me. At only $599 on Amazon, it’s now cheaper than ever before, and is in fact now less than half the price it was on launch ($1,299.99) just over a year ago.

Add to the fact that this classy-looking ultrawide Evnia OLED display is my favourite monitor I’ve ever used (check out my very favourable review of it here) and we have a strong contender for just calling the Black Friday monitor deals race early and giving the (hypothetical) trophy to Philips already.

Overview: This is a curved ultrawide monitor that is marketed for gamers, but performs fantastically for creatives too, thanks to the bright, sharp OLED screen, plentiful connectivity options, excellent colour reproduction and variety of preset colour profiles on board.
