Ausdroid Australia's favourite source of mobile and personal technology news
You might wonder how we generate delicious phone specification tables on Ausdroid, or how we so quickly compare new handsets to phones on the market. On the other hand, maybe you don’t. However, if you do, you might like to try our new Comparison Tool, so that you can compare just about anything with just about anything else.
Just one of the things we do behind the scenes is maintain a reasonably well stocked database of phones, Android Wear devices and tablets. At this stage, we’ve got most modern devices in there, and if you want to compare them, you can. There’s a widget in the sidebar to compare three phones, and you can compare Wear and Tablets too.
Here’s an example of the output, with 2016’s flagships from MWC:

Stats I like are fast charging, wireless charging, waterproof rating,
Nice tool 🙂 A few extra stats that I’d like to see though – does it have a headphone port? Where is that headphone port located? What is the configuration of the speakers?
Hi Dan,
we’ve done A – L have a look and tell us what you think
Sweet! Thanks! Looks great!
Chris is a nice tool!, I mean yes it is. I’ve passed it up the chain and he will add it, it will take a few days for the data to appear. I’ll post back here when we start so you can give some feedback.
Let us know what devices you want added and we will respond here when it’s done.
