Specs as each maker published them, compared word for word after units are read. A spec published for only one year is marked "cannot tell", never "same". Materials are named in free text, often in two languages, so a different name is shown as "described differently" with both quotes rather than called a change. Price is left out because the stored price is today's, not the launch price.

Should I buy the 2026 or the 2027 version?
