Comparison review
LG V30S ThinQ has a general score of 82.5, which is a little bit better than iPhone XR's 82 global score. Even though LG V30S ThinQ and the iPhone XR were released only 8 months apart, LG V30S ThinQ is somewhat thinner and somewhat lighter. The Apple iPhone XR counts with a little better processing power than LG V30S ThinQ, because although it has a lower number of cores and less RAM, it also counts with a 64-bit processing unit.
LG V30S ThinQ counts with a little sharper display than iPhone XR, because although it has a quite smaller screen, it also counts with a lot better resolution of 1440 x 2880px and a way higher number of pixels per inch of display. The LG V30S ThinQ features a superior memory capacity for applications and games than Apple iPhone XR, because it has a slot for external memory cards that supports a maximum of 1,95 TB and 128 GB internal storage capacity.
The iPhone XR captures just a bit better pictures and videos than LG V30S ThinQ, because although it has a worse video definition, a camera in the back with way less mega-pixels and a smaller diafragm aperture which is not favorable for taking images or video in low light situations, it also counts with a bigger camera sensor taking better quality videos and photos.
LG V30S ThinQ has just a little better battery duration than iPhone XR, because it has a 12% bigger battery size.
Although LG V30S ThinQ is a better device, it costs more than the Apple iPhone XR, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as Apple iPhone XR. If you prefer to save some dollars, you can buy Apple iPhone XR, giving up a few features and specifications, but you will get the most with your money.
