A vibrant desktop monitor akin to a Samsung Galaxy phone? (2022 edition!)

10 years ago, I started a thread asking which desktop panel was the closest to my Galaxy SII, which I still have, albeit as a spare phone now! I've always been wowed by the SII and other S-series phones. The colour vibrancy of these panels, and how black the blacks really are. I think nowadays the black "blacks" might be known as "HDR" (?) but I don't think HDR existed 10 years ago.

The overall response on Overclockers was to go for the Dell Ultrasharp range, so I went for a U2412 in 2012, followed by a U2415 in 2017.

I now own an S20 Ultra and its bigger brother the Tab S8 Ultra with a 14.6" panel. So I'm starting this thread again 10 years later in 2022, checking what I need to look for criteria-wise, whether I should go for an OLED monitor or if AMOLED or SAMOLED exists yet in a monitor? I would love to have something like this as 27". Not so important, but are these panels really thin as well? I can't get over how thin the Tab S8 Ultra is. It's like 0.5cm thick and yet it's as big as a sheet of A4 paper!
 
Thanks guys :-)

It looks like I'm too early for this market, but eventually the best bet will be to go for Samsung QD-OLED.

I also had a nosey online to get an awareness of OLED panels in general. I saw reviews on Acer, ASUS, Alienware, Gigabyte, and they all seem to be colossal in size, like 43" up to 55" at 2160p which are TV-sized really. All I wanted really was a 27" at 1440p as that's the norm for consumer monitors imo.
