IPS vs VA Monitor: What's Better For Gaming & Browsing!?

Which type would you recommend for office work?

The LG UR78 series has an odd-one-out as according to a specs site only the 50" sets have VA panels. I am upgrading from a 1080p that has IPS, and I can't find this info on the LG site. The "smearing" in gaming is a concern, but the darker blacks would be welcome. I expect the TVs to be identical except for size, so a difference of panel is a big thing to be quiet about.

Can i calibrate the contrast on an ips panel to match that of a va one?

MSI G24C4 E2 23.6" 180Hz FHD Gaming Monitor With Va panel is better or
ViewSonic VX2405-P-MHD 24 inch 144Hz Full HD IPS Gaming Monitor ips panel or
Acer Nitro VG240Y Sbmiipx 23.8 inch 165Hz FHD IPS Gaming Monitor
which should I pick for competitive gaming + anime watching

Thanks for the Video. Just Brought The Philips 24M1N3200ZA IPS Monitor.

I'm going with ips on my next monitor because of the brightness flicker on my Asus TUF 27Wq1b monitor. I love freesync but that flicker is disgusting.

The way I see it explained is va would be better for media watching movies and may gaming on the side were you don't need more than 60fps or 60hz l
If you game on a console and ips would be better if you mainly game and need better clarity because if offer better color gamut

Curved screens are cost more $ to make. IPS has better colors but low contrast...

If I purchase a monitor with a VA panel and a 4ms response time, and a refresh rate of only 75Hz, will ghosting and black smearing be minimal? Or are these factors not interrelated?

Does freesync premium work between 40 to 60 hz? Also, will ghosting be less of an issue during desktop usage at higher refresh rates like 120 and above?

Which one do you think is better for watching movies?

Is any of the VA ghosting or smearing noticeable in movies (night scenes as well)?

I like that your VA monitor is flat. Most VA monitors are curved. Its kind of rare to see a flat one. Not that it matters much but I thought it was interesting

I don't think viewing angles in monitor matters because you will be always sitting in front of it.

So the VA has more contrast but the IPS has better image quality, thats interesting because you'd think contrast has a large affect on image quality.

I have a 27 inch AoC 240 hz gaming monitor and haven’t noticed any ghosting

And if I require it for programming? With my code editor always in dark mode, which would be the most recommended?

Im in the rabbit hole

thank you for great review , please i need help to pick a monitor . im playing diablo 4 , cod , lol . i not sure who should i pick :
asus tuf VG27AQA1A or VG27AQ1A , from what is see - one is ips and one is va panel . what should i chose ?

Is MSI mp223 good ? (Display and durability)

Ips is so bad

Do you think a VA is good for a ps5? I was just confused what was a VA and a IPS or it doesn’t really matter bc I’m not on a pc so it won’t effect my gameplay too much

Just subbed! Really informative and at the same time, got me overthinking even more :D What do you think about the Samsung G50 model compared to the Gigabyte M27 (talking about IPS), and also the Gigabyte G27 curved (VA)... I'm constantly changing my mind about which one to get, I'm not every into competitive gaming, I love games like The WItcher or RDR2, and I'm drawn to the contrast advantage of the VA, but the IPS has a wider color specter, and I don't know which type would showcase those games better...
Came here for information, but will stay for the content! Cheers!

video saved, im considering Philips ZA monitor, for 310€.

which one is good for eyes , for office work , numbers and something , ips or VA

VA 🎉

the philips VA panel, what response times does it have at 60 hz? Will it work well for consoles where many games run at 30 or 60 fps? Thank you for your work

IPS for its clarity while gaming and overall longevity.

@ TotallydubbedHD can u please confirm which of the panels is best for office use (coding)...as the viewing angle will be straight most of the time...

fun fact:
Philips are pretty good monitor, my 10-year old 24" 1080p IPS 60hz panel is running strong!
While my AOC 24" 1080p 144hz 1ms IPS Gaming monitor had problem with the panel after only 2 years WTF?? lucky me it had warranty for 3 years so I got a coupon for my €219 (euro) to buy a new monitor!

my new monitor will be: LG ULTRA GEAR 27GN600 for €265 (euro) hopefully it will be good!

Here’s my take after doing my own research:

1) Most reviewers don’t adjust their settings properly, and IPS tend to have better settings out of the box. So many have the impression that VA doesn’t have better color.
But that’s not true, VA nowadays have improved their color substantially.
Just look at it this way, how can a monitor produce better color when it cannot produce proper black?

2) Ghosting may not be that apparent as you think. Most of the time only for those super hardcore gamers, who are nitpicking monitors.
3) viewing angle problem most likely fixed across most brand

Hi,
BenQ EX2710S 27 inch LED IPS Monitor
Any idea about this monitor??

I want more Streaming like Netflix and Amazon with good black colour if i watch dark movies and i don't play much gaming, what monitor should i choose? VA or IPS Panel?

Recently purchased a Philips VA panel, and other than the discoloration when viewing at extreme angles, I can't say that I'm noticing any of the other issues being brought up by tech sites.
I'm pretty happy with my VA purchase.

thanks for the in-depth comparison, and thanks Philips! Eindhoven de gekste

Would you prefer a 75hz IPS or a 144hz VA Panel? Great video!

I have yet to see any smearing on my VAs in any normal use. I think it's only visible with a UFO test or white text on black background.

Thanks for sharing! Based on the ufo test for the one with va panel, even with fastest overdrive there's still no inverse ghosting?

Hi, I'm planning to buy a 27" monitor and can't decide between 3 monitors...
I play some games just for fun, when I can, watch some movies and the rest is the normal use.
I know that for my profile, I'd be better off with and IPS flat screen but.. all my choices are curved and VA screens. :P
My choices are:
- AOC Gaming 27" C27G2ZE VA FHD 240Hz FreeSync 0.5ms
- Dell 27" S2721HGF FHD 144hz FreeSync Premium 1ms
- AOC Gaming 27" C27G2ZU VA FHD 240Hz 0.5ms FreeSync

I know the Dell monitor is one your favourites in this "range" and that's why it shows on my list, but from these 3 which one would you buy?
Thank You and congrats for the great channel!

Excellent review, definitely going for VA for all rounded use, office/videos/photo editing/gaming. On a side note what game is that you were playing at the start?

What about mini-Led, quantum-Dots, and all other new technologies?

For the casual gaming, the ips is more suitable right?

Thanks for sharing such useful info) great usefull video

AOC 24.5" 25G3ZM (Va - 240Hz) would you please examine
