Visually appealing, interactive interface
From 4 comments
The OnePlus One is $349 for the 64 GB model right now. $299 for 16 GB. I was just on their website regretting my Moto X (2014) purchase. Edit: I should mention that I love my…
SyncTheory13 on HNI was just about to suggest customisable axes as a killer feature ... then went and discovered them myself :) This is a fantastic interface.
oneeyedpigeon on HNWell done, this is very cool! Where do you get your data from? I would like to use the data in a different type of visualization.
andysinclair on HNLooks nice. Might I recommend that you look into adding easing to your animations. It looks like you're using simple linear interpolation to move the points from place to place.…

Objections
Prices are wrong for some models, such as Nexus 5 and Nexus 6
From 3 comments
Something seems wrong with the price of the Nexus 6. It doesn't cost $1150. It is at 600€ on Amazon.de, which is about 740 USD. This seems like someone is trying to resell the…
aselzer on HNSame for Nexus 5, it's 432$ (345€) on Google (belgium) but it's $650 in the graph.

Missing some variants, such as 64GB Nexus 6 at first
From 2 comments
One thing I noticed -- the Nexus 6 actually comes in either 32GB or 64GB, but when I search based on memory/storage or on price, only the 32GB shows up. This is probably…
Smudge on HNNope your still missing the 64GB Variation.. You only show apple and oneplus at 64GB memory..

Requests
Add radio/LTE filter
From 2 comments
Would be great to also have radio capabilities (ie 3g,4g, lte, etc.) as a filter. Looks awesome!
matttah on HNReally neat tool. I would like more granularity in the screen size selector. Perhaps in half inch increments? +1 for radio capabilities.

Add OS and age/release filters
From 2 comments
Some filter suggestions: camera resolution, year released, battery life, and OS (and version). I don't know where you're getting the info from, but these could all be pulled from…
swimfar on HNSome kind of age metric is often useful in a selector. For example, when was the phone first available on Amazon. Or what OS does it run. In a fast-moving market like phones, age…

Persist filters in URL

Would you consider adding one's selection filters to the navigation hash, so that I can reload the page (or follow a link and come back) without having to re-do all of my…

Finer screen size increments

How does the site generate money?

Would you be willing to share how money this kind of site generates? I always fancied making one myself but the competition seems hard.
