The LG USB-C monitor is just $170 for a short time
It's one of the most unassuming monitors you'll ever see. Depicting itself with a simple screen that says 'LG Monitor' without any of the accolades, 'ultras,' or blue light blocking features (which are present for this monitor) this LG monitor can seem plain. However, the LG 27U631A-B (which we'll be referring to as the LG 27 USB-C Monitor) has a better stat profile than you might think and, with this deal, a very reasonable price. Usually $250, you can now get the monitor for $80 off, rendering it just $170. You can even save 5% or 10% more for buying 2 or 3 monitors, respectively, in LG's 'Buy More, Save More' event. It really makes it one of the best USB-C monitors you can buy today, an easily accessible pickup found by tapping the button below. Read on to see exactly why. Why you should buy the LG 27 USB-C Monitor This 27-inch monitor has a QHD (2560 x 1440 pixel) resolution with a smooth 100Hz refresh rate, HDR10 for a wide color gamut, and a USB-C connection with 15W power delivery. This makes it an excellent hub for your computing gear, and a great monitor to connect your laptop to when you're planning on sticking close to your home. There's a reading mode for low blue light and casual reading before bed, too. Finally, one interesting quirk of this monitor is that it has built-in webOS streaming, making it a sort of TV-lite. The LG 27 USB-C Monitor is now down to a price of just $170 after an $80 discount is applied to its regular price of $250. Compared to other monitors like it out there today (especially in a new era of tariffs) it's an incredible price point, especially when you can save an additional 5% or 10% if you buy 2 or 3 monitors instead of just the one. That makes this a great deal for those looking to expand the home office for everyone in the family. Looking for a something different? Check out these other monitor deals instead.

Waterdrop Water Filter review: A game-changer for clean, great-tasting water
New York Post may receive revenue from affiliate and advertising partnerships for sharing this content and/or when you make a purchase. Let's be honest, we've all been there — lugging massive plastic water jugs into our kitchens, subscribing to overpriced 'spring water' deliveries and then still buying fridge filters that barely make a dent in water quality. Sound familiar? You're not alone. If you're like me, then you're probably subscribed to a monthly water delivery service and are paying over $100 per month on 'Spring Water,' plus a rental fee for the dispenser. The point is that we pay a significant premium for the bare essentials when it comes to water. Advertisement Enter the Waterdrop Filter X12 Pro RO System, a reverse osmosis system that says, 'You deserve better,' and then actually delivers. With its sleek design, smart faucet and science-y sounding 11-stage filtration process (yes, eleven!), this is not your basic under-sink setup. It's essentially the Tesla of water systems (if Tesla made household appliances and didn't just launch things into orbit. Waterdrop Filter Pros Sleek and compact design Smart Faucet with easy-to-use features Easy to install Impressive flow rate Water tastes great Cons: On the expensive end Countertop installation might require professional assistance Let's start with aesthetics. The X12 doesn't look like a clunky appliance you'd want to hide. It's compact enough to fit under most sinks but still packs in features that would make an engineer swoon: UV sterilization, smart touch faucet with an LED display and real-time TDS readings. Better yet, Waterdrop Filter comes fully equipped with the X12 Pro Dual Flow feature, allowing users to choose between two water outlets for different filtration needs, making it even more versatile for daily use. One flow is for purified drinking water through the Reverse Osmosis Faucet, while the other provides clean water from Your Kitchen Faucet for cleaner washing (think: fruit, dishes), offering you and your household complete purity. Dimensions: 18.2″ (W) x 6.3″ (D) x 16.7″ (H) | Warranty: 1-year warranty (customers may purchase additional years of coverage at an extra cost) How it Works & Setup Al Murillo Installation sounds intimidating, right? It's not. The entire process took me about 45 minutes and was less intimidating than I had anticipated. The system includes 11 pieces, including the Teflon tape and a valve converter if your outlet isn't standard. The instructions are clear, the fittings are color-coded and if you're even slightly handy (or have access to YouTube), you'll be fine. That said, the only slightly tricky part is drilling the hole for the faucet if you don't already have a sprayer hole in your counter. Don't be alarmed, it's nothing that a couple of YouTube tutorials can't teach you within 5 minutes. The Four-Connection Setup Al Murillo Let's break it down: Water Port Tube: Connects the system to the smart faucet. Drain Water Tube: Sends wastewater out. Inlet Hose: Brings in cold water. Outlet Hose: Connects to your original kitchen faucet. That's it — no plumber. No stress. Just you, a screwdriver and about an hour of feeling like a DIY god. Al Murillo What makes a Waterdrop filter different? Once the system is connected, you plug it in and watch the Smart Faucet screen light up like a tiny control center. The first flush cycle takes about 35 minutes, the process that cleans the filters and preps the system. Bonus: you can pause it after 5 minutes if needed (you know, if you want to show it off to your neighbors). Water So Good, You'll Side-Eye Your Old Filter Let's talk about the actual water. It's cleaner and it tastes better. That's because of the X12's precise pH adjustment to around 7.5±, which is the sweet spot for drinking water. Too acidic or too alkaline can affect everything from taste to digestion. Balancing the pH helps maintain healthy minerals while avoiding that flat, 'dead' taste you sometimes get from over-filtered water. It's a household investment that I feel good about, especially when I know that fresh water comes in a flash. This creates a better living environment for me and my family. What's the Deal with TDS, Anyway? TDS stands for Total Dissolved Solids, a measurement of the combined content of all inorganic and organic substances in water. According to the EPA, lower TDS often means cleaner, better-tasting water. The X12 lets you watch these numbers drop with every pour thanks to its LED readout. It's like having a mini science lab in your kitchen, except way cooler. UV Sterilization: Your Invisible Bodyguard The built-in UV sterilizer activates as water dispenses, zapping microbes you can't see. This is especially helpful if your tap water contains bacteria or if you're using well water. Every time that little blue UV icon lights up, you know something powerful (and invisible) just happened. This makes my life easier and helps refute impurities from making its way into my glass. Smart Faucet = Smart Living Can we take a second to applaud the Smart Faucet? This thing pours fast — I mean 3-seconds fast! I was very impressed. Not only that, but it lets you set exact volumes from 5 to 64 ounces, saving you from overflows or guessing. Want a quick 16 oz for your water bottle? Turn the knob and go. It even reminds you when it's time to change filters, which saves me the guesswork (considering there are so many household to-dos already on my plate). Goodbye Plastic Bottles, Hello Sustainability If environmental impact matters to you (and it should), the X12 is a game-changer. Under-the-sink reverse osmosis systems help the environment by reducing the use of plastic water bottles, which is very important to me. You're saving hundreds — maybe thousands — of bottles a year. Plus, Waterdrop Filter has a recycling program for used filters. Maintenance? Barely Any. Waterdrop Filter Replacing filters is simple and tool-free. The system uses color-coded indicators and the Smart Faucet reminds you which filter needs attention. Depending on usage, you'll swap them every 6-12 months. Thankfully, a technician isn't needed, and you won't find any off-kilter (or should we say off-filter) surprises like with some pitcher filters. What's more, you can also track how many days each filter has until it needs replacement, which is ultra-convenient. Customer Support That Doesn't Ghost You Waterdrop Filter's customer service is worth noting and something that, I find, makes it stand out among competitors. The website offers a handy compatibility guide by household size, residence type, and usage. The brand also has responsive support reps if you run into questions. It's not just 'buy it and figure it out'; Waterdrop Filter sticks with you — which is just as good as having fresh drinking water at my disposal. The Final Verdict Yes, the X12 Pro RO System is an investment, but it pays for itself in under a year when you consider water deliveries, bottled water, and fridge filter replacements. Murillo's breakdown says it all: 'We pay a significant premium for the bare essentials when it comes to water.' With the X12, that premium finally works for you. Between the smart faucet, balanced pH, UV sterilization and sleek design, the Waterdrop Filter X12 feels like the future of home hydration. It saves you money, saves the planet and gives you water that actually makes you want to drink, feel refreshed and carry on with your day.
