Introducing versions: phone variations tabulated

25 May 2017
Phones often have regional and carrier versions and we improved our database to help you spot the differences.

Sort by:

when comparing phones, if I scroll down, the phone names at the top should still stay visible so i know which column is what phone. Like freeze pane in ms excel. please implement this GSMA.

      Thumbs up, great step ahead

        I've been looking forward to something like this! I constantly go to PDADb.net to compare different version specs. It's pretty extensive, but I don't like having to switch websites. THANX

          That is nice. I think a description in the specs sheet was good enough but this makes things easier - as long as it is indicated which version number corresponds to which geographical area or otherwise, as I have no idea whats the version number for a phone I might be getting.

            I think it will be better if the news feed is arranged according to brand and it will be really cool if news about computers is always added as well not just phones all the time...you guys are doing great work tho

                    I wonder if there's a bug with the zoom icon not showing. It's hard to communicate with GSMArena as they don't reply back to emails.

                        Can you at least make a next and previous button un the news section? I wanna read all the news but kinda annoying to get to the news page back to click on the next news

                          It ridiculous when same phone has many versions...

                          Something like : X, XC, XS , XS+, XS Pro, X Maxx

                          Same phone, just change cpu or battery size.

                            This is good, but please do something about the new image viewer. Its awful. Give us an option where we will be able to see the image in new tab, in full scale.

                              AnonD-425519, 25 May 2017The "old" photo viewer of a few months ago was horrible!! Y... moreI think we're talking about the same one, but I still dislike the current photo viewer, looks horrible and the zoom button often doesn't show for pictures that did have the zoom button for the previous photo viewer.

                              I guess the one you mentioned was the best, with the ability to open full-res photos in a new tab.

                                Nice feature ot will clear a alot of confusion

                                  murtaza121, 25 May 2017Excellent feature, would be very useful for most, but pleas... moreThe "old" photo viewer of a few months ago was horrible!! You couldn't even see the full image when zoomed in and scrolling around. It was blocking the edges.
                                  I hated it. I miss the old old one where you could view it in a tab on its own or download them. This one now is better than the previous one, but not better than the first one they had. Zoom works fine with this one. Try to clear cache or use another browser. Some images don't have a zoom button though. I assume it's because they're low resolution.

                                  The best photo viewers are those that have a button "View full resolution in a new tab".
                                  How I wish GSMArena would implement that!

                                    Nice feature. Finally there's no need anymore to comment: ''Is the G950W with a Snapdragon or Exynos?''. But now people will ask ''Which one is for Europe?''

                                      Excellent feature, would be very useful for most, but please, for gods sake, go back to your old photo viewer. The current one is buggy, the zoom-in button doesn't work and the photos look terrible, the old one was fine.
                                      If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Perfect place to use this.

                                        Already the best, and this puts you way ahead of everyone else!!! Thank you!
