I have a curved Acer 32", also just 1080p, and i'm typing on it right now, sitting 2.5 feet away from it , have perfect 20/20 vision and the screen is perfectly fine for text, videos and images. I game on it too. Will you see finer, sharper display on a QHD screen at the same size and distance, yes, but nobody is going to see pixels at typical, practical use scenarios.

And IPS also smears, it's just , the smear trail looks smaller. And because IPS has really bad contrast ratio, the smear is light grey in color thus less noticeable over the image.
VA has really high contrast ratio with deep blacks, thats part of why when it smears (ontop of the slower response) the smearing looks more obvious.
Note: in order to change your frequency or hertz (on Windows 10). I had to search in advanced display settings on windows, display adapter properties, monitor tab and screen refresh rate. I changed it 144 hz since that was my max. My video card won't go past that so I'm good. I also changed a setting on the monitor itself to extreme for better results. Hope that helps
VRB is back light strobe, you can't use extreme, because it's too dark, ~60nits with brightness set to max. @ Normal VRB , the brightness peak is ~120nits when brightness is set to 100. The backlight strobe improves the blur trails and adds motion clarity.
If you want to test it, set the monitor to 60hz, and watch the credits scroll up at the end of movies, notice that it blinks unevenly.
Then set it to 119.879hz, you'll notice that the credits will blink at an even rate. 119.879 doesn't matter for gaming, you'd use 165.
Gaming, you want to set VRB Normal, Overdrive Extreme. Brightness 100% , 165hz, Leave everything else alone. DO NOT touch blackboost, this is a secondary contrast setting that basically ruins everything. It basically pinches the gamma function at the bottom and top to exaggerate / crush image detail.
Use the highest refreshrate 165hz that your pc supports if you use VRB, because on this monitor the lower the frequency the lower the brightness.
For example, at 165hz, vrb normal, the brightness is 120nits, at 120hz vrb normal, the brightness is 90nits. That's really dumb, and they shouldn't have designed it this way, but well it is what it is.
How it should work , is they should have a seperate strobe function tuned for each refresh rate to minimize the brightness difference. But for $155 , the fact that it even HAS Vrb is incredible. so.. heck, i'm satisfied.

Also, this was not on the sales floor when i went to walmart. The electronics department said they didnt have it in stock after i showed them in stock on the walmart app.i found a customer service manager with the scan gun and he scanned the barcode from brickseek an it showed they had alot of stock that was in the back.
Probably the best thing to do when looking for in stock items is to just ask a CSM to scan the barcode to elminate any confusion

Hey I have another question. I see that there 120hz and 119hz. Does that 1hz difference make watching movie play differently? I also try watching at 144hz and 120hz I can't tell the difference. I also try watching the credit. For me it look the same
What happens in slight differences like 24hz or 23.98hz is , the playback software will have to drop a frame or repeat a frame at some point every couple of minutes. You're not likely to notice the small mismatches, vs 60hz which has terrible 3:2 judder.
I would say, for ANIME fans especially, 23.98/23.976hz is especially important, because Anime requires frame perfect to express the proper motion, as it's a different movie language where it uses very strict panning rules in the way it's made. Even slightly faster/ slower frame rate makes the motion look less clear and less impactful.
First message from Walmart said order delayed.
Second message said my order was cancelled due to high demand.
