GSMArena Phone Specs Scraper

Pull complete mobile phone specifications from GSMArena at scale — every spec sheet flattened into clean, structured data covering network bands, display, chipset, RAM, storage, cameras, battery, charging, build, sensors, and more. Pull a brand's full catalog or paste GSMArena URLs directly. Built for phone-comparison site builders, price-tracking and e-commerce teams, market analysts tracking device launches, and ML teams who need a structured device-spec dataset without parsing GSMArena's spec tables by hand.

Why This Scraper?

• Full brand catalogs or direct GSMArena URLs — walk every paginated page of a brand's lineup, or paste phone and brand-listing URLs and let the actor detect which is which. Mix both in a single run.
• 125 brands with full catalog pulls — Samsung, Apple, Xiaomi, Google, OnePlus, Nokia, Sony, Huawei, Oppo, Vivo, Realme, Honor, Asus, Nothing, and 110+ more, each expanding into its complete paginated phone catalog.
• ~28 promoted spec fields per phone — name, brand, announced date, release status, network technology, display size and resolution, OS, chipset, CPU, GPU, RAM, internal storage, main and selfie cameras, battery capacity, charging spec, dimensions, weight, build, SIM, colors, sensors, and SAR — all flattened to the top level for instant filtering.
• Complete structured spec sheet on every row — a nested specs object captures every GSMArena section: Network, Launch, Body, Display, Platform, Memory, Main Camera, Selfie Camera, Sound, Comms, Features, Battery, and Misc. Nothing on the page is left behind.
• Camera detail split out cleanly — separate mainCamera and selfieCamera module strings, plus the full per-lens breakdown inside the specs object.
• Battery and charging separated — battery carries the capacity and type, charging carries the wired and wireless charging spec — not mashed into one string.
• SAR values where GSMArena lists them — US and EU specific absorption rate figures combined on a single sar field for regulatory and comparison work.
• Batch hundreds of URLs at once — paste a whole list of phone and brand-listing URLs in one invocation; brand pages expand automatically into every phone they list.
• Clean dedupe by phone ID — overlapping brands and URL lists never produce the same phone twice.

Getting Started

Pull a Brand's Catalog

The simplest run — one brand, the first 100 phones:

{
    "brands": ["Samsung"],
    "maxResults": 100
}

Batch GSMArena URLs

Paste phone and brand-listing URLs together — the type is detected automatically:

{
    "startUrls": [
        "https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s24-12773.php",
        "https://www.gsmarena.com/google-phones-107.php",
        "https://www.gsmarena.com/oneplus-phones-95.php"
    ],
    "maxResults": 200
}

Full Multi-Brand Catalog

Combine brands and set maxResults to 0 to pull everything available:

{
    "brands": ["Apple", "Xiaomi", "OnePlus", "Nothing"],
    "maxResults": 0
}

Input Reference

What to Scrape

Provide brands, GSMArena URLs, or both. At least one is required.

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
brands	string[]	["Samsung"]	Phone brands to collect, one per line — for example Samsung, Apple, Xiaomi, Google, OnePlus, Motorola, Nokia, Sony, Huawei, Oppo, Vivo, Realme, Honor, Asus, Nothing. Any brand listed on GSMArena works. Each brand expands into its full phone catalog.
startUrls	string[]	[]	Paste GSMArena URLs directly. Supports a single phone or a brand page. The type is detected automatically — brand pages expand into all of their listed phones.
searchQueries	string[]	[]	Currently unavailable. GSMArena's search page asks every visitor for a browser check, so keyword queries come back with nothing. Use brands or startUrls instead — both read pages that are unaffected.

Results

How many phones to collect. Each phone is one result.

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
maxResults	integer	100	Maximum number of phones to return across all queries, brands, and URLs combined. Set to 0 for unlimited (up to the site's own limits). Start with 10-50 to test, then increase.

Output

One flat record per phone. Every row carries recordType: "phone", the ~28 promoted top-level spec fields, and a complete nested specs object with every GSMArena section.

Where GSMArena lists more than one market variant for a spec — SIM setups, chipsets, camera modules, charging options, foldable dimensions — every variant is kept and separated by |, so you can split the value apart in one step instead of guessing where one variant ends and the next begins.

Identity

Field	Type	Description
recordType	string	Always "phone"
phoneId	integer	GSMArena numeric phone ID (dedupe key)
name	string	Full device name (e.g. "Samsung Galaxy S24")
brand	string	Manufacturer (e.g. "Samsung")
url	string	Source GSMArena phone URL
imageUrl	string	Primary product image URL
announced	string	Announcement date (e.g. "2024, January 17")
releaseStatus	string	Availability status
priceHint	string	The price GSMArena shows for the device — either a rough guide price ("About 750 EUR") or a live retailer aggregate ("$ 547.00 / £ 599.00 / € 676.56"). See the note below the table
scrapedAt	string	ISO 8601 timestamp of data collection

A note on priceHint. This field carries whichever price GSMArena is showing on the page, and that comes in two shapes. Most devices show a rough manufacturer guide price — "About 750 EUR" — which stays put for years. Roughly a quarter show a live aggregate of current retailer offers instead, one figure per currency — "$ 547.00 / £ 599.00 / € 676.56". Those retailer figures follow the market, so the same phone can come back with different numbers (and the currencies in a different order) from one collection to the next. Treat them as a snapshot of the day you collected them, not a stable value to compare across runs — for price tracking over time, keep the scrapedAt timestamp alongside each value.

Display & Network

Field	Type	Description
network	string	Network technology summary (e.g. "GSM / HSPA / LTE / 5G")

internalStorage	string	Internal storage configuration(s)

Camera

Field	Type	Description
mainCamera	string	Main/rear camera module summary
selfieCamera	string	Front/selfie camera summary

Battery & Charging

Field	Type	Description
battery	string	Battery capacity and type
charging	string	Wired and wireless charging spec

Body & Build

Field	Type	Description
dimensions	string	Body dimensions
weight	string	Weight
build	string	Build materials
sim	string	SIM configuration(s), one per market variant

Full Spec Sheet

Field	Type	Description

Tips for Best Results

• Brand mode is the workhorse. brands walks every paginated page of a catalog, so a single brand name returns the complete lineup — hundreds of devices for Samsung or Xiaomi. It reads GSMArena's brand pages, which are unaffected by the browser check now sitting on the site's search page.
• Set maxResults: 0 for a complete brand catalog. Unlimited mode pulls every phone the brand lists — pair it with a single brand to harvest the entire lineup in one run.
• Start small to test. Set maxResults to 10-50 on your first run to confirm the fields match your needs, then scale up.
• Combine inputs in one run. Mix brands and GSMArena URLs together — results are deduped by phone ID, so overlapping sources never double-count a device.
• Read the full spec sheet from specs. The top-level fields are convenience extracts; the nested specs object holds everything else (Sound, Comms, Features, and every per-section detail) for deeper analysis.
• Ask for the parent maker when you want a sub-brand. Nubia, Poco, Redmi, and iQOO are not top-level GSMArena makers, so they have no catalog of their own. Use Xiaomi for Redmi and Poco, ZTE for nubia, and vivo for iQOO — every device keeps its sub-brand in the name field, so you can filter to exactly the line you want.
• Paste brand-listing URLs to target an exact catalog. A URL like .../google-phones-107.php expands into every Google phone, giving you precise control without relying on brand-name matching.

Pricing

From $1.00 per 1,000 results — pay per result only. No compute charges, and the price drops as your Apify loyalty tier rises.

Results	No discount	Bronze	Silver	Gold
100	$0.12	$0.11	$0.11	$0.10
1,000	$1.20	$1.13	$1.06	$1.00
10,000	$12.00	$11.30	$10.65	$10.00
100,000	$120.00	$113.00	$106.50	$100.00

Gold-tier pricing stays at $1.00 per 1,000 results. The tiered rates above take effect on 12 September 2026; until then every run is billed at the current $1.00 per 1,000 results.

A "result" is one phone row in the output dataset. One phone equals one result — opinions, galleries, and retailer prices are never expanded into extra rows. Platform fees (storage) are additional and depend on your Apify plan.
