Lg g5 defeats samsung galaxy s7 edge

The LG G5 and the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge are going to fight many battles this year with comparisons of all kinds. Being both high-end Android phones, one of the most recurring comparisons is the one that has to do with the overall performance they offer . Which is faster?

LG G5 and Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge face to face

Firstly, it should be noted that the two phones use a processor from different manufacturers, while the LG G5 uses the Sandragon 820 from Qualcomm, Samusng Galaxy S7 Edge uses a processor of its own, the Exynos 8890. In the case of the Snapdragon 820, this is a 4-core processor and can reach frequencies of up to 2.2GHz. The Exynos 8890 for its part is an 8-core processor and can reach frequencies of 2.3GHz.

On paper, it would seem that the Exynos of the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge starts with an advantage due to the greater number of cores, but this is not the case in the tests carried out by the people of Androidguys, who have taken these two phones to perform a series of performance tests.

In the three tests that were carried out at, AnTuTu, GeekBench 3 and Vellamo Mobile Benchmark, the LG G5 has emerged victorious in all of them. Probably of the three tests mentioned above, the most important is AnTuTu, which tests the CPU calculation speed and a 3D performance test, among others.

The tests do not lie, The LG G5 is faster

Despite the fact that the LG G5 has a higher performance in tests than the brand new Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge, the differences are not so comfortable, the performance is quite similar and it is probably difficult to perceive for the common user. The really surprising thing is that the Sanpdragon 820 can match and beat the Exynos 8890 having half the cores (4 cores vs. 8).

Recall that the LG G5 begins to sell today in the United States and in Spain will arrive in the second week of April.
