Best IPS vs VA comparison in the whole internet. Seriously.

me, watching on a cheap TN video so can see neither the truer colours nor the deeper blacks

My mouth dropped when I saw the black on white text comparison. Thanks for making this in depth video. Nice work.

Thank you sir for this video. You just made me make a choice that've been bothering me for 2 days. And btw, I love the way you articulate and speak. Feels like hearing a nice gentlemen . I'm now subscribed to your channel and exited to see more.

This is by far the best IPS vs VA comparison I watched! Very logical testing, and the black background white text coding just took it to another level.

Me watching this video on a *TN* Panel: 🌝

Dude, really... as some have already said: Hands down the best comparison between IPS and VA panel on the internet. Great stuff, mate. :D

Bro, You nailed it. This is super cool comparison with every detail .

I own a philips 144hz va panel monitor, and out of the box, the black smearing issue was really bothering but managed to reduce it significantly by adjusting the "SmartResponse" setting to fast.

Video of this kind of categories are not covered by most of youtubers, and most video i found are 3 to 4 years old. Thank you so much for this video. and Keep going with the flow....🔥❤

As someone trying to figure out which monitor to use (only used laptops up to this point), this video was super helpful! It's one thing to read about it and another to see the visual differences. Thanks!

Solid comparison and I'm glad it just came up in YT recommendations. The part on text during screen shake was a practical example that helped me decide.

Best IPS vs VA panel comparison ever date! Subbed!

after 9hr of reviews, this is the best one.

excellent review, one of the most comprehensive and well explained comparisons i think I've ever seen. i think i'll have to go into store to actual see the panels though lol

Great video man, thank you on testing and explaining in detail. Now I can help more people when purchasing new monitors. Cheers!

I do appreciate so much, not only your accurate review but also your kindness calling for liking and subscribing at the very end of the video. So polite and ellegant.

This was really interesting actually, appreciate your time, keep it up ✌

thank you so much I learned a lot and your voice is so calming and straight to the point. God bless. Keeping my Dell 27 IPS S2721DGF 27

Wow, I was thinking a lot about which of the two panels to choose, and I was able to make a decision by watching this video. This is a very useful video. Thank you!

5:20 Thanks for this side by side comparison of dark background and white text. I am programmer. I was looking for VA for better black colors but this showed there are other issues.

Why this channel got only 373 subs? It deserves more

THANK YOU, I was about to spend a little bit more in monitor with VA panel but seeing the ghosting and colors I'm definitely going for the IPS

Thx for this comparison! The black smearing with white text on dark background was the knockout for the VA panel. Because I am programing a lot in dark mode. That was very helpful.

This is such an amazing review, really helped me to decide my purchase.

Best review! Thanks mate. Now I am going IPS all the way

This review was so fulfilling and satisfactory and really helped me understand these issues watching it on a 10 year old Samsung budget model LCD. 😊🤗

TOP comparison! thanks a lot, I almost bought a VA monitor myself, fortunately for me I saw this comparison first!

Keep up this amazing work man , this video need alot of views

I like the variety of things shown/discussed in your comparison, the way you replayed, highlighted and slowed what you were showing and how you got the info across while being concise.

thanks a lot... I've been researching for a few days trying to decide for one of these panels... I was already like 89% sold on IPS cos I knew it had better color accuracy but lots of my friends and reading online and watching other videos said it wasn't as bad and it was way more worth going for a VA panel mainly for avoid the "ips glow" effect that are very well known in the IPS space.. but after watching this video I'm now 100% sold on IPS. I enjoy a lot of movies, anime, and games and I rather have the best image quality as possible, and now days we have IPS with 1ms (GtoG) so no real reason for go for VA anymore.

Thank man, you help me a lot to understand the difference between those two!

This is the best video on the subject; thank you !

Amazing Video man, Ips vs Va and i'm watching this on my Tn laptop screen. lovely.

Great video, I've been pulling my hair out reading reviews but this actually showed it on screen! I'm now set on another IPS! Cheers 👍

Thank you for putting the work to confirm advantages/disadvantages.

thank you for doing this test, just wanna say it

IPS for the win.. glad I pick up an Aorus AD27QD from 2019.. so damn great monitor. loved it..

Thank you bro, this is the best IPS vs AV comparison in youtube! nice job

Completely amazing comparison, Cleared my doubts. Thanks.

Thank you for such a good review! i was searching for a video like this for a while :)

Amazing review, probably the best!!!

Thank you so much for this amazing comparison!

simple and understandable 👍👍 best va / ips comparison video

Very good video, the demonstration at 5:18 really put black smearing into perspective and convinced me to go with an IPS monitor instead.

This was a really good video! Thank you!

Your narration and experiment is so clear on this topic without much technical jargon ; is really helpful for every one who is in confusion in this subject. thanks to you for saving me from a wrong decision . I am going to IPS . HOPE YOU WILL MAKE MORE VIDEO LIKE THIS >>>> STAY HEALTHY and WELL.

Thanks very much for this side-by-side comparison! Now I do understand that IPS panel is the preferred choice for me!

Thank you! This is all I want to know! This video is on point.

Great comparison ! I am really amazed cause i already have a VA panel and have none of the issues such as black smearing and ghosting. I even tested with black background and white text and it was like the ips of your video, not even the slightest black smearing or ghosting !

Finally found a detailed video, covering all the aspects. Thank you so much. Saving us from all the crap on UKposts.

Brilliant comparison by far the best in UKposts!

Very good comparison. Two things to notice. 1. If we are using dark mode for coding I would prefer IPS. 2. In most of the comparison videos(other brand VA display) VA panels are little warmer than IPS. But Viewsonic managed that.

i'm looking one for coding primarily and have been considering VA monitor as it is generally cheaper. The website you created definitely a deal breaker for me. almost 70-80% my uses are on black / night mode from IDE, text editor, terminal. It's scary to think how i'm gonna live with that. Thank you so much for taking time creating this. Definitely one of the best comparison on YT. Practical and straightforward.

Thank god for this video!! I've been trying to figure out what the difference is, as I'm buying a new monitor online to replace my current monitor which I hate! I have eye issues and my current monitor isn't as bright as I need, and the 'graininess' of the screen really squiks my eyes. I use an apple Mac laptop and the clear display has ruined lol. I've been trying to avoid buying a monitor online that has the same 'grainy' screen texture, but wasn't sure what to look for. I know this review has more to do with the display tech, but very helpful in my research! Thank you!

A really professional video! Glad this was recommended to me.

wow. I have a VA and I haven't really noticed the black smearing until now. Now that you pointed it out, it's harder not to see. Interesting. good comparison.

Thank you so much for this! I was contemplating buying a VA monitor, but after seeing that black smearing on the white text on dark background, it is a no-go for me

Now my struggle of finding which panel is better comes to an end. Thanks for this Crystal clear comparison mate, Cheers!

Wow! Excellent comparison. Thank you for making this video.

A well thought out practically relevant fantastic review because you show visually what the differences are to the human eye. VA is definitely a no-go for me when I eventually buy a 4K monitor. The black smearing looks terrible. Granted the IPS tech. has lower contrast ratios however it does not look 'defective' just not as good contrast wise. Now to decide on 28" or 32" for 4K.

Quality content ❤️🔥

Such a great informative video you've made. So glad I watched this.

Thanks, I knew va had pretty bad black smearing but I didn't suspect it was that bad, since I had never seen it and had instead looked at measurements. Now I know I'm going for 1440p240hz IPS hopefully they get to some $500- soon

Those "deeper blacks" on VA are useless in my opinion, because you must increase your brightness so you have less black smearing because of VA's technology. Any movement on a VA panel messes things up; for instance, if you have a star dotted sky and the scene moves, the stars dissapear while the camera moves, because the black pixels take too long to change from black to a color. I use a 34 inch ultrawide 2k VA display for working, general computer usage and gaming. Its fine for casual use but for gaming is not that good, and sometimes my mouse dissapears while everything is still normal on my older TN display.

Coming from IPS for almost 15 years now and trying VA for once (due to I needed an ultrawide real estate for my work), in coloration: VA is surprisingly tolerable for color work-related purposes, but VA still has its downside esp when it comes to bleed, full black screen, and to others you might even noticed some unevenness (I got lucky my current VA monitor was well-manufactured and its stock calibration is good). But if purely for gaming though, VA and IPS doesn't really factor that much to be honest. In the end, it can still boils down to the quality of the product: A well-optimized and quality VA monitor is worth considering and can be a good alternative to a decent or average quality IPS monitor.

Thank you so much! Really helped me with the panel choice. I am definetly going for an IPS panel.

Thank you for the thorough and comprehensive review

Nice comparison. I'm using a VA panel and yes the black smearing is real, but it doesn't bother me much.

Watching on my phone because it has a better screen than my monitor xD Edit: As someone who uses dark mode on everything, the smearing instantly made me not want to risk a VA. Good video.

Thank you, this was the best examples of the difference between IPS and VA panels.

Best IPS vs VA panel comparion on the INTERNET dude, I was about to buy a VA panel after sseeing the reviews from big youtubers, but you literally saved me, especially the White text on black background test... THANKs a bunch mate

As someone who frequently watches logs, I’m really glad I went with IPS rather than VA now. That worst case you showed is pretty normal for me.

I had bought an insanely expensive VA monitor back around 2004, an EIZO, i forget how much it was. I returned it right away due to VA black smear. It was pungent, sticky. Since i program and engineer and need to scroll through insane amounts of text, text becoming completely illegible during scrolling was not acceptable, and it was affecting black text on white background too. This was before Overdrive was invented though. I hoped these things would have gotten better by now. I wonder how much colour choice can alleviate the issue. For example my usual editor black isn't really black, it's just a slightly brownish tinted dark grey.

Great review man, 10/10, best comparison on UKposts

Ty for this. Having the debate myself but couldn't get a great answer. Going with IPS!

Great video! Especially loved the black smearing part! I found mobile OLEDs also guilty of black smearing at low brightness. I definitely won’t be able to live with it!

Nice video... overall i think it also depends on the producer and the brand... i have a Samsung 21.9 monitor and i think it handles the problems much better... i never noticed a real disavantage (except the viewing angle, that's on every va panel the same i guess)

Man, thank you a lot for sharing this video with us!

Thanks Bro, Such a Helpful Video. Keep it going

Dude this is the single best video I've seen comparing the two panels. No fluff, no bullshit, just straight facts. Please continue in this trend. This sounds strange but your voice is also amazing. You don't speak fast or too slow, and you don't have any weird inflections. You have a nice clear sounding deep voice as well.

If we mainly focus on reading/writing and watching movies, would VA be the better choice? Or will IPS be better overall since in your test, IPS seems more suited for wide variety of application while there was a negligible advantage for movie watching in VA?

Great review. Helped me pull the trigger on the Dell 2721DGF that I found on sale for $380, which is IPS, and I'm extremely happy with it.

Nunca vi una comparación tan exacta y bien argumentada .Felicidades.

깔끔한 비교영상 잘 보고 갑니다

This review was an eye-opener! Having almost all programs in dark mode with white text would be a nightmare in VA, especially coding.

Really helpful video..and ur voice smooth and crystal.

Dude thank you for that. You helped me so much

Man this video is a life saver. I planned to buy a VA monitor as my main one, but it seems to suck for both gaming and coding (the two things I'll do mostly), so I'll probably stick to a previous IPS monitor I had in mind. A lot of thanks for your time and effort in your research 😊

I think the ghosting problem you saw is due to the monitors response time, it uses MPRT for down to 1ms but for technical reasons I won't get into here I'll just say look in the monitors options to see if you can disable it and go with the GTG of 3ms response times. The monitor probably isn't the best example for VA panels either only doing 250cd/m2, meaning not even entry level HDR (400cd/m2) support and the colour space support is just 6bit+FRC, not true 8bit. With a maximum power consumption of 60w overall for a £/$400 monitor its not that impressive, at all.

FINALY a video that helped me choose Love u thanks!

thank you so much for going straight to the point

Can you do one between IPS vs TN? This is by far the best review I've seen.

This is how to do monitor comparisons, end of, well done!

A very nice view. Some stuff I did not notice anywhere before. Thanks

Thanks man, was so conflicted on the lg and this video helped me

In this 30 years of my PC crusade I had a lot of monitors, IPS, TN, VA... and now I'm using Philips 165Hz 32" VA panel. And yes, it has smearing but I'm not annoyed about that. In most games smearing isn't so noticeable - only if you are looking maniacally for that. What I like and prefer over other monitors are really deeper blacks and non-existence of GLOWING of IPS (you forget to mention that) and, the most important: richer colors and saturation. VA panels (especially Philips' ones) are capable of more vivid colors and that's game changer for me.

Few years ago I bought VA (from MSI) and I had chance to compare with quite old IPS monitor (aoc brand). And I had same results... I was very disappointed by VA panel. So I decided to return VA and I bought new 144hz, g-sync IPS panel. It was quite expensive, but definitely better choice.

Thank you for bringing this comparison with programming. I always find video about gaming. Of course this type of monitor is for play games, but, we must know how is normal use

this is awesome, thank you for the review!
