I'd still take the vastly better contrast of VA despite the motion issues.

OLED could develop dirty patterns whereas IPS has it out of the box with absolutely garbage black and grey uniformity.

Not as good. The Debut is an outstanding entry level turntable. This is just another Audio Technica product for big box stores.
