Use GSMArena Phone Finder to Select Your Next Smartphone
For most, buying a new smartphone is easy – you just get the latest version of what you used. If you’re unhappy enough or don’t want the latest Galaxy, Pixel, or iPhone (to name a few), it’s time to go shopping and you’ll have tons of smartphones to wade through to find the perfect one for you.
Given what to look at – thank you Android – finding a new smartphone can seem daunting. Fortunately, good GSMArena specialists have a handy tool that you can use to narrow down your questions. Finding your phone on the site is an incredibly useful way to find your next smartphone based on the characteristics that matter most to you. And you can choose from a variety of options: price, size, thickness, screen resolution, camera resolution, etc.
Finding your phone isn’t going to be the most rewarding if you’re looking for the best smartphone ever made – after all, it doesn’t offer ratings , but just a list of phones that match the specs that are most important to you. However, if you don’t want to spend a lot of money on the most functional smartphone you can get, Phone Finder is a great way to start looking at the harrowing trade-off between price and functionality. Or at least it can help you confirm if you can actually get a 6.3-inch smartphone for $ 200 (you can!)
Once you’ve selected your specs and hit the big red Show button, you’ll see a list of smartphones that match your criteria. You can click any of them to see detailed specifications for the device, but I find it more helpful to use the Compare tool on the site, located right below Phone Search Results.
Click on it and then select up to three smartphones about which you want more information (aim for the boxes, not images of the smartphones themselves). Click “Compare” again when you’ve made your selection and you’ll get a huge spreadsheet detailing the capabilities of each smartphone.
If the sheer volume of data seems overwhelming, click on the Differences option to see what smartphones have in common (gray text) and how they differ (black text), which can help guide purchasing decisions.
