Shown, not counted
These sit inside an average we already count, or come from the maker's own shop.
Thin: only 2 reviews and buyer ratings, so they are pulled toward the average.
80 is the field average. A part counts as 80 + (average − 80) × N ÷ (N + 1), where N is its number of sources. One source counts half of the gap from 80. No sources count as 80.

Notes
Thunderbolt 4 with 90 W, daisy-chaining, KVM, 98% P3 with a factory calibration report and a 150 mm stand make it a capable 5K dock-style display for creative work. Peak brightness is only 400 nits, the speakers are weak, it costs about EUR 1,160, and Mac & i criticises contrast errors when the uniformity mode is on.
