Methodology

Price sources

Prices are collected from the public product-listing pages of the stores named on this site, with their permission and at a gentle pace. We never estimate or guess a price.

Product matching

Two listings count as the same product only if they agree on brand, model and storage size, and on the variant (Pro, Plus...), network (4G/5G) and RAM when those are stated. Colours are merged into one product. If we are not sure, we do not merge.

Regional versions

Prices can differ between the Middle East version and international/global versions because warranty and specifications may differ. Check the version on the store page before buying.

Update schedule

Prices update once a day; the last-update time is shown on every page and in the open data. A store's price may change after our last update.

Validation

We drop invalid prices and prices below SAR 100. If two stores disagree by more than 40% we publish neither, because we cannot tell which is right, and we drop prices far from the median.

Ranking & commissions

We may earn commissions through some links in the future; they never affect store ranking or displayed prices, and we will say so clearly.

Open data

All prices are available as JSON at /api/products.json for use and citation with attribution.
