I would go more VA than IPS TBH it doesn’t look too bad to me still looks nice and black, also I’m not sure how many people allow direct light to hit the screen(can damage OLED screens), Top emission panels were always going have a problem with direct light shinning on the screen due to the panel structure and there is also a lack of a polarising layer. People seem to forget plasmas did the same thing.
 
Full gaming comparison:

In most of these I find the c2 looks better. They are close but I just find the c2 colors to look more natural. I do prefer the s95 in forza there it the extra brightness works wonders but in god of war and Elden ring I don't like the colors on the s95 and the highlights are too bright- I don't mind bright highlights but it shouldn't be so bright it crushes detail, Samsungs qled panels crush detail and their QD-OLED does the same thing, its very offputting

That’s because WOLED has got people used to that colour tone who now think it looks right and that’s the way it should look, put up a pioneer kuro or Panasonic plasma against both QD-OLED and WOLED and QD-OLED would be a closer match to the plasma colour. I’m not saying WOLED is bad I have owned one since 2014, it’s just OD-OLED is the next step to a more accurate better picture quality, the true leap forward will be when microLED becomes mainstream

LG better have an answer to rgboled, if not, ouch.

The do it’s called lower prices, WOLED doesn’t all of a sudden become a bad buy because of QD-OLED(it still produces an amazing picture and dynamic range), this will be great for the consumer, because of QD-OLEDs release I have no doubt we will see 55” LG OLED for around £5/600 and 65” for under £1000 come Black Friday, it’s going to be weird because it’s probably going to be more expensive to buy a 42/48” OLED over a 55” OLED.

is the game developers intended output? If you've played Elden ring you'll know that throughout he game there is a giant bright yellow tree that takes up half the screen that's always there. On the qd-OLED the tree is basically invisible the background is just a big white blur, it's ridiculous. When brightness on the TV extends beyond what occurs in real life outdoors it's just silly and off putting - when I watch the HDr videos on the QD-OLED showing beaches and forest etc I'm like wtf I've been to a couple rainforests and many many beaches in several countries and I've never in my life seen anything that looks this alien, the colors are so over saturated and way too bright

Wait a minute your judging a TVs dynamic range and what it looks like through what your seeing on a tv/iPad/monitor from a youtube channel that’s filmed from a camera that doesn’t have the dynamic range of the TV and YouTubes compression? Or do you have the Alienware monitor? If it’s the first there is now way you can judge a tv by a YouTube video. What I will also say is no TV can even come close to the brightness of “real life outdoors”

I agree that Samsung do overbrighen everything, which is why I have the A95K on order

Where have you ordered it from? Can't see it up yet...
 
Have to say I'm not overly convinced by the crop of QD-OLED and similar tech displays coming out - they all seem to have at least one serious disadvantage and while it is far from perfect overall none seem to have quite the lifelike punch colours/light has on the Philips 436M6 QD-LED VA - even though black levels are not amazing on the display. If they just improved the graininess at close range due to BGR pixel layout, uniformity and black levels and got it up to around 120Hz that display would take a lot of beating. Even SDR content looks incredibly good on it.

For a VA it has surprisingly good pixel/latency response as well - so far I've not seen any of the normal VA smearing, etc. and I'm usually very sensitive to it.

If your sensitive to Pixel response and smearing I don’t understand why you haven’t gone for a LG CX/1/2 with its instantaneous pixel response time and no smearing, the only thing the Phillips beats the LG on is it’s insane sustained brightness, TBH I don’t think QD-QLED would be a good choice as a monitor due to its pixel structure especially for productivity work

27"/1440p is still my go to for fast paced games, I use the Philips for controller/console/casual games and entertainment. Now I'm not saying people should be buying the Philips especially if looking at bigger displays like 55+ inch but having seen what it can do with colours/light and all the newer tech ones I've looked at having at least one serious flaw and/or reviews mention such, I find it it difficult to be convinced by them.

That is to be expected, Samsung has not given their panels a diffuser layer, so viewing angles are not good and the grey blacks
