ok, hi, im searching for a budget 24" 1080p ips monitor

as far as i know most ips models from dell//hp/lg/asus/acer/aoc/viewsonic are virtually the same products with a different logo
and i know that the latest ips panels have this blue/orange pixelation (mostly vertical) issue
and since all brands are using them now, it makes it really difficult to distinguish which models have the problem and which ones dont
i know older ips models dont have this problem but is that our only option?
helpful user reviews are not easy to find, it seems many users have such monitors but fail to notice the problem not because its minimal but due to inexperience (strange but they think thats how it should look)
what can i do?

it is a well known issue so i wont get into details but here are some affected models (just a few of the dozens) and some reviews addressing it (most other reviews dont but the problem is there) in case someone has no clue of what im talking about

dell u2414h (many other dell models ofc)
aoc vg240y - youtube
lg 24mk600m-b - youtube
lg 24mp59g-p - (i think this would be the first model incorporating the new ips panels)
aoc i2481 - pc-monitors
viewsonic vp2468 - pc-monitors
... (list goes on)

i know Hforum is crazy about display tech, is there something i can do in order to avoid buying a model with this problem? how can i know beforehand?
thank you

I have a Dell U2410H. Obviously very old, old school bezels, but it's pretty solid. Certainly doesn't have the "pixelated" effect, but it's not a high refresh monitor, it's doesn't have GSync, Freesync or any of that.

Sort of the first time I've ever heard of "pixelated" effect. With that said, my TV, a 55" LG 1080p OLED, does have what is known as "screen door" effect, which, based on some of the youtube videos you posted, might be the same thing(?).

Anyway, hope you find a good monitor.
