It's cute how they conveniently forgot to mention it's VA or IPS.

It's hidden in the NewEgg Details tab - it's VA

True. But it's not mentioned anywhere in the title or the overview page (which is where most people look for these things). They just hid it so suckers buy it and don't notice...or if they notice it after buying, they might just keep it. I can guarantee if they put VA Panel in the title, there'd be a lot less people buying this.

I'm really happy with mine. 1000R is great for me, so it's a subjective thing.

Don't disagree, but us discerning folks will ask and us savvy commenters will always call this out

I've got mixed feelings about VA, you get better contrast ratios, worse color gamut, worse viewing angles (the curved nature somewhat compensates).
