Comparison: samsung galaxy s5 vs lg g2

Today we arrived with a clash between two titans of the competition that have excellent benefits, although with a more than palpable difference between their costs, as we will see in the end. We are talking about the already well-known in these parts, Samsung Galaxy S5 and LG G2. Throughout the comparison we will detail each of the specifications of these terminals and that in the end we will check if it is compensated with each of its costs, and if the difference between them is justified. Let's get started !:

Screens: both have practically the same size, being 5.2 inches in the case of the LG and 5.1 inches if we talk about the S5. They share the same resolution, being 1920 x 1080 pixels. Samsung's flagship features a super AMOLED display (consumes less power and is more visible in sunlight), while that of the LG G2 features IPS technology, making it possible to have very sharp colors and have a wide viewing angle. Both have protection against bumps and scratches thanks to the Corning Gorilla Glass 3 (Galaxy S5) and Gorilla Glass 2 (LG G2).

Cameras: the rear lens of the S5 features 16 megapixels, in addition to standing out in functions such as Selective Focus (clearly capturing what you want, giving depth and professionalism to your snapshots), higher speed between shots and shots, and a very light sensor precise. The LG G2 for its part has 13 megapixels, as well as an autofocus function and LED flash. Its front cameras have 2 megapixels in the case of the Galaxy S5 and 2.1 megapixels if we refer to the LG, very useful for making video calls or profile photos on social networks. The recordings made by the Samsung Smartphone are excellent, as they are shown in UHD 4K @ 30 fps quality, while If we refer to the G2 we will get them in Full HD 1080p at 60 fps, something that is not bad either.

Processors: by the older brother of the Galaxy family we have a Quad-core CPU that runs at 2.5 GHz, while the LG G2 is accompanied by a 2.26 GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 SoC . They do share the same graphics chip: Adreno 330, that offers us a great visual experience and better performance. Both phones are also backed by 2GB RAM. The operating system present in both cases is Android: version 4.2.2 Jelly Bean in the case of the LG G2 and Android 4.4.2 Kit Kat for the Galaxy S5.

Designs: Regarding size, the Galaxy S5 has dimensions of 142 mm high x 72.5 mm wide x 8.1 mm thick and weighs 145 grams. It has a rear part made up of small perforations that give it great comfort when holding it. It is available in four colors: white, black, gold and blue. The Samsung model also has the IP67 certificate, which makes it a waterproof and dust-resistant terminal. It also includes a fingerprint scanner that gives it great security. The LG G2 for its part has a size of 138.5 mm high x 70.9 mm wide x 8.9 mm thick and weighs 143 grams. Its plastic back cover does not live up to what you would expect from a high-end terminal, but the positive part is that it is joined in perfect metallic harmony with its screen.

Batteries: they have a very similar capacity, being 3000 mAh in the case of the LG G2 and 2800 mAh if we refer to the S5 model . As we can see, both terminals are destined to have a very remarkable autonomy, although in the end it will depend on the use we make of the device (games, videos, connectivity, etc.).

Connectivity: both terminals offer basic connections such as WiFi, 3G or Bluetooth , in addition to also presenting other latest generation such as LTE / 4G technology.

Internal Memory: both terminals have two models for sale, one of 16 GB and the other of 32 GB, which in the case of the Galaxy also has a microSD card slot of up to 128 GB.

Availability and price: if we refer to the Samsung Galaxy S5 we can say that we are talking about a great phone. We find it available for example on the website of pccomponentes for 665 - 679 euros depending on the color and version of 16 GB. The LG G2 is also a high-end terminal although much more expensive: if we take a walk through pccomponents it can be found new and free for an amount of 435 euros in black or white, although by browsing the Google "shopping" we can find it even for about 340 euros, in 16 GB version .
