Why You Can Trust CNET Get a Dell 23-inch monitor and $100 gift card for $161.99
Backed by a three-year warranty, this antiglare LCD would make for a great second monitor.
Looking to outfit the ultimate PC gaming rig? Need a second monitor to boost your desktop productivity? Or maybe you just want a larger screen to complement your smallish laptop or Chromebook. Whatever the case, today is your lucky deal-day.
For a limited time, Dell is offering the E2314H 23-inch desktop monitor for $161.99 shipped (plus tax in some states). That's after applying coupon code 78M4SHHJ4JC9WW at checkout.
That's not an especially fabulous deal by itself, but here's the sweetener: You also get a $100 Dell eGift card. It will arrive via email within 10-20 days of your purchase -- plenty of time to think about how you're going to use it.
Ideas: Defray the cost of a new TV or laptop. Score a tablet for next to nothing. Pick up a printer and have a few e-bucks left over for extra ink.
The monitor itself is your basic flat panel with LED backlighting, a 1,920x1,080-pixel native resolution, and VGA and DVI inputs. The real highlight is the three-year warranty.
This model has no customer ratings on Dell's site, but half a dozen Newegg buyers rated it close to five stars on average, and it's a winner among Amazon customers as well. Sure, it's priced at $150 from those two stores, but that doesn't net you a $100 gift card.
If you happen to be in the market for a new monitor, this is definitely worth considering.
Bonus deal: This just in: If you want a slightly higher-end model, the 23-inch Dell S2340L is $170.99 shipped, again with coupon code 78M4SHHJ4JC9WW, again with a $100 gift card. It has only a one-year warranty, but features an IPS display and HDMI input.
