Is there a way to see VA ghosting/smearing?

Trying to see what this is all about.

I've never seen or used a VA panel, but I'm thinking of getting the benq EX3501R having missed out on the AW3418DW offer

Every other monitor I've owned had been IPS.

Can any. YouTube vids actually show this effect ?

It is kind of hard to see for real what a monitor is like in the flesh from a video online being watched on another monitors.

I have a VA and it is my only choice as I want black to be black and higher contrast ratio (not Dynamic crap claims), I also do not want IPS Glow so its a tirade off.

It will no doubt be like many things like the DLC PJ's Rainbow Effect etc and that some people see it more than others.

Yeah I assumed you would need to see it in the flesh

It really has everything I want in a monitor on paper

Usb-c (for my surface book)
100hz is fine (others I've had all been 60)
1 inch bigger than standard
Good colour range

Is hard not to get it with the price

I've done my best in a previous couple of posts here:

This is great.

I think I can see it for the first time .

On the ufo vid i can see a little bit of the red ufo go dark behind it.
Like about 1/4 or a 1/5 of it is cast like a shadow ?

Think I might just put up with it

All the liege monitors are too expensive with too many problems

If nothing new is in the pipeline I might go for the benq

If it really is that bad ill probably never change my u2711.

The ips panels are so expensive. Like tv expensive.

I think I'll just have to give the benq a try. If its OK it'll save me 500 pounds .
That's not just a little bit of cash.

Also, these 1k monitors have a 2 year warranty. I'm not sure if I can chance that even if they are worth it

Oh, but I want a shiny new VA or IPS! Ehh, considering it will sort of be a stop-gap for a few years till I go 4K, that TN is now on my list - thanks. Just been on the fence so damn long, and honestly part of me wants to go for a 4K TV already. Anyway, I'll have to wait till Ampere or Navi.

Same I'm in a new house new desk and now want that new monitor

Go and see one for yourself or buy it in good father and if it sis bad return it, you cannot go 100% by a video online took by a camera and watched in your monitor.

I will say what I said before, I will not buy a TN again or use a IPS for gaming/movies due to blacks or lack of, again IPS has glow so its swings and roundabouts.

I'm wondering if anyone has one around Cardiff.

Yeah I'm neve going for tn that's for sure

I'm actually tempted to get a 60hz ips for photography and a different monitor for games/films.

I'm not even sure if ultrawide is workable for photography and 3d design
