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
5K at 218 PPI with Thunderbolt 4 and a 4K webcam, but CHIP faults high power draw, no HDMI and no swivel, Mac & i the TV-style Tizen menu, and users report connection drops. It is no longer sold new at Austrian shops, so it matters only as a reference.
Specs come from search-result summaries of B&H, CDW, Best Buy and Tom's Hardware (fetches were exhausted; the Tom's Hardware page was fetched but the body did not load), not from a maker page. Only size, resolution, Thunderbolt, DCI-P3 and webcam are tied to a page (Tom's Hardware); panel, refresh rate, delta E, USB-C power, speakers, ports and stand were in excerpts that name no single page, so they are left empty. UK listing says 75 Hz vs 60 Hz in US specs. 600 nits is the peak figure; typical brightness not found, so none is stored. testberichte.de reviews the EU model S27C902PAU of the same S9 5K line, headline 2.3. A 6K ViewFinity S9 does not exist. Read via testberichte.de: CHIP. These tests are inside the testberichte.de grade, so they are shown, not counted. (Read from a search excerpt, page not opened: Best Buy).
