Cheapest monitor?

Yeah, I did 1/8. Cheapest they had, really nice 2-way mirror but also keep in mind that the backing is very delicate (at least what I got is).
Those are some nice party favors though: $35 pi + $35 mirror + $x monitor + extras and love! I am truly jealous of that gift, seems like a really cool idea

ASUS MX259H 25" Full HD
I bought this monitor when it first came out as it was on sale at the time.
The screen is absolutely beautiful with excellent color accuracy and viewing angles.
The monitor itself is very well designed and appealing to look at it. My only complaint would be a lack of mounting points on the back so your only option is it sitting on a desk. -
I know here [US] people buy new computers and want to get rid of their old ones… and they usually have a flat panel monitor with them …
Also look for 'Refurbished" monitors…
That’s kind of how I’m getting the 40" tv for my next project… my parents… it quit working so they told me I could have it and I believe it is just the backlighting that quit working and the part is like 20.00 US…

Ultrawide all the way. If you’re happy with the height, go 29" 2560x1080 and save yourself £200.
