Comparison review
The iPhone 7 has a general score of 81.6, which is slightly better than the LG V20's general score of 77. The iPhone 7 is a way lighter and just a little bit thinner phone than the LG V20, even though both of them were only released with a couple of months difference. The iPhone 7 counts with a bit more powerful CPU than LG V20, although it has a smaller amount of RAM memory, they both have a Quad-Core CPU.
The LG V20 features a bit more vivid screen than iPhone 7, because it has way more pixels per screen inch, a bigger screen and a way higher 1440 x 2560 pixels resolution. The LG V20 shoots just a bit better photographs and videos than Apple iPhone 7, and although they both have the same 3840x2160 video quality, a F1.8 camera aperture and the same video frame rates, the LG V20 also has a larger sensor taking more light and vivid colors and a back-facing camera with a lot better resolution.
LG V20 has a bigger memory for games and applications than Apple iPhone 7, because although it has just 64 GB internal storage, it also counts with a slot for an external memory card that admits up to 1,95 TB. LG V20 has a very superior battery life than iPhone 7, because it has 3200mAh of battery capacity against 1960mAh.
Although iPhone 7 is a better device, it costs a lot more than the LG V20, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the LG V20. If you are trying to save some dollars, you can get the LG V20, giving up a few features and specifications, but you'll get the most out of your money.
