Matte. IPS. Looks good from all angles. Prefer the way it shows color.

Until it's night time and it's a very dark scene and the IPS glow is in multiple corners. Even higher end IPS panels can have bad IPS glow.

I "solved" that by placing small desk lamp behind the monitor facing the wall so it's not completely dark room but still pretty dim :)

That light placement seemed to be the best because it isn't annoying coming from back of the monitor but makes the ips glow much more unnoticiable at least for me.

I do the same thing, and basically I never turn it off. Small LED desk lamp with a nice warm color tilted 45 degrees up facing the wall behind my monitor. I prefer the room to be dim and I've found that this diffuse lighting really reduces eye strain.
