Comparison review
The Apple iPhone XS Max has a global score of 84.5, which is a bit better than the LG V30's 79.1 overall score. The Apple iPhone XS Max is a newer phone than LG V30, although it's heavier and just a little thicker. The iPhone XS Max has a bit better processing unit than LG V30, because although it has an inferior number of cores (although faster), and they both have 4 GB of RAM, the iPhone XS Max also counts with a 64-bit processing unit.
The iPhone XS Max has a bit sharper screen than LG V30, because although it has a bit lower 1242 x 2688 resolution and a little less pixels per screen inch, it also counts with a quite bigger display. The LG V30 counts with a very superior memory capacity to install applications and games than Apple iPhone XS Max, and although they both have equal 64 GB internal memory, the LG V30 also has a slot for an SD memory card that admits up to 1,95 TB.
LG V30 has just a little better battery life than Apple iPhone XS Max, because it has 3300mAh of battery capacity instead of 3179mAh. Apple iPhone XS Max captures slightly better videos and photos than LG V30, because although it has a tinier camera aperture which is worse for low light captures and videos, a back facing camera with lot less mega pixels and a worse video quality, it also counts with a bigger sensor taking higher quality videos and photographs.
Although Apple iPhone XS Max is a better device, it is a lot more expensive than the LG V30, and it doesn't have such a good price and quality relation as the LG V30. So if you want that extra specs and features, you can buy the Apple iPhone XS Max, but if you don't you can save a couple dollars and get the LG V30, letting go a couple specs and features.
