"When choosing between IPS and VA monitors, consider the following:
- Color Accuracy and Viewing Angles: IPS panels excel in color accuracy and maintain consistency across wide viewing angles, making them ideal for graphic design and collaborative work.
- Contrast Ratio: VA panels offer superior contrast ratios (2000:1 to 5000:1), delivering deeper blacks, which is beneficial for dark-room usage or watching movies.
- Response Time and Refresh Rates: IPS panels generally have faster response times (1-2ms) and higher refresh rates (up to 500Hz), making them better for competitive gaming. VA panels lag slightly in these areas.
- Use Cases: Choose IPS for color-critical tasks or gaming with high refresh rates. Opt for VA if you prioritize deep blacks and contrast for movies or casual gaming."

I'd say the main tradeoff is refresh rate vs contrast. As a casual gamer I prefer the blacks of VA.
It really comes down to how much effort and quality control each monitor model is given. I have two VA panels (slightly different models) and the one advertised for 'professional use' looks significantly better than the other in literally every respect - gray uniformity, response time, ghosting, backlight bleed, color accuracy and viewing angle.

Additionally, VA panels have poor viewing angels. This was also stated above but I want to stress that it's REALLY bad at times, especially with changing vertical angels. If you sit up or slouch in front of your monitor, it would actually change the color consistency of what you're seeing.
These both are incredibly annoying for me, which is why I never purchase VA panel monitors.
I just purchased a triple monitor setup for simracing. Even though was curious about curved monitors since I use an curved ultrawide on my desktop, I didn't see any IPS curved panels out there as all of them seem to be VA. To me the viewing angels for simracing is pretty important so I went with a flat IPS panel.
The color reproduction is cheeks on my IPS monitor by comparison, but the gaming experience is a lot better (I play mostly shooters). All of my non gaming activity happens on my VA monitor though. Just depends what you're looking for. Personally, if I could only have one of the two it would be a really tough choice. IF I did any kind of content creation, I'd absolutely stick to the VA and just deal with the gaming inadequacy. If I was mostly playing games, IPS.
