Can we start posting this bit of info for monitors more often?
Its pretty important for a lot of us who need specific monitor types.
IPS will have accurate colors but VA has better contrast.

Its funny how NOBODY will buy a phone with anti-glare on it but they will buy a monitor with it
I feel like a lot of PC gamers just think if it's not IPS that's it's no good without knowing exactly why. Better colors are nice, but unless you're doing professional work it's overstated and better viewing angles? C'mon, most of us are sitting right in front of our monitor. Even in my TN panel, I have to contort myself to get a bad view angle.
i daily drive a XG270HU
I need one. Care to help out? Lol
Do you position them next to each other to have one continuous screen curve, turn both screens slightly towards the user, or both straight facing forward?
Does it impact viewing angles?
Is it kind of pointless?
Better off getting an Ultrawide Monitor instead of 2 curved?
Any feedback is greatly appreciated!
I'd like to know too! Been looking at a dual monitor set up myself.
IPS will have accurate colors but VA has better contrast.
TN's previous benefits, refresh speed/response time, has largely diminished with manufacturers putting a lot of emphasis on improving IPS/VA panels for better speed characteristics. There's largely little reason to get TN panels today.
The main differentiations between choosing IPS vs VA are these two:
1) Are you OK with curved, or do you want flat?
VAs are more commonly available as curved screens, IPS are more commonly available as flat screens. Curved screens aren't very adequate for content creation, since the corners will be warped if you're trying to video editing or photoshop type work. But they can be nice if you like a more immersive experience in exploration type games or something.
2) Do you view/play content on your monitors in a dark room at night or a brightly lit room during the day?
The contrast will matter more in a darker environment, and IPS's blacks at a typical ~1:1000 contrast ratio will look grayish in a dark room, and that may put you off. If you typically use the monitor in a dark room, consider VA over IPS. If you use the monitor primarily during the day, the contrast advantage of VA won't be as readily apparent. If so, consider IPS if you primarily use your monitor in a brightly lit environment.
