How we built this chart

Each row comes from the model’s current US Amazon listing. We record a spec only when the listing states it, and we check every value against the listing text. Anything not stated is shown as n/s (not stated) instead of a guess. Several listings of the same model are merged into one row. The chart rebuilds automatically every week.
