    Compared to Speccy, a key feature it's missing is a "summary screen" with an overview of the most important information from each page. On the other hand, it shows more technical details than Speccy does. While the features are similar, I feel they have slightly different use cases/audiences.

    hwinfo is a live monitoring program with a complicated user interface. Speccy is an at-a-glance hardware profiling tool for e.g. quickly finding out just exactly which version of your cpu you have, or which model of RAM when you've lost the box...

    Much more accurate than Speccy, also much more more involved, aimed at power users/pros.

    It correctly detects things that Speccy fails to, such as CPU core temperatures in modern AMD chips.

    It's sad that they're archived the repo and maybe discontinue the project. Nevertheless I liked compactness of this app and giving basic info with that short and nice and clean text.

    Gives complete information on system hardware. Just pipe it to less to browse the information. Speccy formats this information well, but lshw seems to have as much info if you take the time to read it.
