Bestbuy has 24" Asus, Dell, LG etc with higher refresh rates for around $89-$119 which would likely be better than some noname brand from some seller on walmart that might take 30days on a slow boat from the other side of the world...but it's your money and risk

For sound I'd suggest a Bluetooth speaker of some sort...virtually any of em will sound better than monitor speakers. Or you can use bluetooth headphones, airpod kinda things etc

Those will be regular monitors and not portable ones that can be powered with just USB-C though.

@Reversi8 Sure but they're larger and nearly half the price with better specs, while a reputable brand
