You are right, MVA and PVA are actually strong in their own right and being labelled as IPS is shady. Yes, I too agree that the tradeoff of response vs accuracy is relevant and an important personal factor.
I'm hoping these OLED screens and tech being pushed in VR trickle down to consumer monitors sooner rather than the tired wait we've all been in with OLED.
With the push for Adaptive Sync, it feels good Monitors are getting attention again and being scrutinized more rigorously.
I couldn't agree more. Very exciting times in the display tech world.
