About MobileIQ
MobileIQ is built and maintained by Gordon Shepherd, founder of IQ Labs, a small UK studio that builds comparison sites on one rule: every figure names where it came from and when it was read. This site holds 55 phones and 2,265 sourced figures. Nobody here has measured anything; the figures are the makers’ own, or a named third party’s, and the chip on each one says which.
How it works
A spec sheet is read from the maker’s UK page and each figure is stored with the page it came from and the date. Two phones are compared row by row, and a row is only marked as a win where the figures can be ranked and the gap clears a published threshold for what a person would notice in use. There is no overall score. The one ranking on the site, the Endurance index, is built from verifiable primitives with published weights. The full method, thresholds included, is on the methodology page.
What it does not do
- It does not measure phones. There is no lab, and no figure pretends there is.
- It does not score phones or pick a best one.
- It does not sell phones, take commission, or run adverts.
- It does not collect anything about you. The “Your phone” setting lives in your browser and is sent nowhere.
Corrections
If a figure is wrong, the source linked beside it is the place to check first; if the source says something different from the page, that is our error and we want to know. Corrections go to [email protected]; the contact page says what to send. A sourced correction is applied and dated: fixed figures carry a new read date, and where we got something wrong in print we say so on the page, as with the Galaxy S23’s support dates in September 2026.
Press photographs are the makers’ own, credited under each one, used without a licence on the basis described in the site’s image policy; a maker who would rather we did not can have a photograph removed on request, and the drawing takes its place.
