aside: no TN and VA has nothing to do with each other...

Which panel is better for a TV? it depends on many different issues and it can be part of the overall design. For example, brightness is dependent on the panel AND the backlight.
By the same token, very few tv's do not have some coating or screen in the way that helps diffuse or alter the light emitted from the system. This system can have a dramatic impact on the viewing angles. SO while usually IPS has better viewing angles, there are examples of where VA TVs have better viewing angles than an IPS TV.
also keep in mind different emitter arrays can be used in different systems.. This is why LD OLED may have less burn in than Sony/samsung OLED. It is also why some 42 inch TVs are better monitors than other tvs. Check out rtings.com for quick easy info.
I just bought a QM8 and compared a A80J to it and man it's freaking close how good the blacks are. The QM8 has very little blooming but at the expense of some crushed blacks and I really have to look closely to see differences and the difference are tiny. Only times when it's even remotely noticeable side by side are during scenes with large gradients of grays and dark colors. The QM8 does get way brighter in HDR which I value over infinite contrast ratio the OLED has.

Also I hope Costco carries a version of the U7K as well. This is on my short list for my next tv depending on pricing.
Edit: Never mind, Hisense uses different panel type depending on the size of the TV. Sneaky...

So far just the 75 inch has the IPS.

However, it prob is just how annoying I find a VA panel is to use with a computer due to the lackluster off angle viewing and color.

VA panels have better "blacks" than IPS? That's surprising to me just from what I have seen anecdotally when I compare a VA to an IPS panel in person (as like you i hate the off angle issues with VA panels so I was probably biased )
