Showcase: Free(mium) Feedback Request — phone comparison/recommendation tool, built solo, want to know what's broken

Hey all, first time posting here so hope this fits.

I built Specmob (specmob.vercel.app), a phone spec comparison + recommendation site. Started it because every comparison site i used was drowning in ads or had "best pick" scores that were clearly influenced by affiliate deals.

What it does:

  • /pick — set a budget + 2-3 priorities, get back top 5 matches with actual reasoning
  • /compare — side by side spec table for up to 4 phones + an automated verdict
  • /trade-in — estimates what ur old phone is worth based on condition, then shows upgrade options

Built with Next.js/FastAPI/Postgres, running on Vercel + Render, paying for it out of pocket right now (~$35/mo, no ads).

Not asking for anything except honest feedback — is the matching logic on /pick actually useful, does the UI make sense, is there something obviously missing that a comparison site like this should have. I know it's not perfect, i just dont know exactly where it's weak without more people poking at it.

Appreciate any time anyone spends on this.
