Y'all be very careful when getting an open box nowadays I I love Bestbuy. But they starting to sell broken, cracked or just more junk as open box. I just returned an open box dell all in one and it was cracked. I returned it,told them it was cracked. And guess what I saw online today? Yup that same Dell with the crack for a higher price lol. Sad. .

In general OLED > IPS > VA. VA's main advantage over IPS is better contrast ratio but IPS does pretty much everything else better.

Viewing angles are distorted, you have to look straight into the center to be normal

Even if you look in the center, you won't necessarily be normal. The image will improve though.

IPS panels have better color, whereas VA panels fought for the confederacy.

They can have more ghosting and motion blur, and they don't have the best viewing angles.

Some VA panels can look amazing though. They can be fantastic for photo editing and non-competitive gaming.
