Both the iPhone 6 and the LG G3 offer the exact same screen size, so which one is the best choice? There are a lot of similarities between these two phones but there are also plenty of differences.
The iPhone 6 and the LG G3 both have 5.5 inch screens which put them in the phablet category with many other popular phones that are hitting the market. The iPhone comes complete with full HD 1080 p resolution with 401 ppi but it just can’t compare to the Quad HD display on the LG at 1440 x 2560 with an impressive 534 ppi. If you want a screen that gives the crispest, clearest visuals then the LG is obviously a broad step ahead.
When it comes to design the iPhone 6 is thinner than its predecessor and comes in at a miniscule 7.1mm. The LG G3 is still plenty thin itself but is slightly larger than the iPhone at 9.1 mm. However, when it comes to weight the LG wins coming in at 149 g vs. 172 g. Neither weight is worth scoffing at but the LG is quite a bit lighter.
Handling can be extremely important in a phone. Having a phone that is difficult to hold can often mean damaging or breaking the phone when you drop it. While the iPhone 6 offers a nice thin size, overall the LG G3 is more economic and easier to manage. The main difference can be found in the height and the bezels that LG has put into the phone. Holding it simply feels more secure than the iPhone.
Both of the phones come in a variety of colors but the iPhone comes with an aluminum uni-body body that feels sturdier and more durable. The LG G3 has a “metal effect” from their metallic skin that covers the rear plastic cover but clearly if it’s a choice between metal and plastic there’s a clear winner.
The processors on these two phones vary quite a bit and the LG with its 2.5 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 quad-core processor would seem to outpace the 64-bit A8 chip in the iPhone, yet it somehow doesn’t. When the phones were tested against one another the iPhone plus managed to outpace the LG but it should be noticed that the differences are so small that in practical use they would be unnoticeable. Both phones will perform seamlessly and to the practical user there will be no noticeable difference whatsoever.
