Comparison review

Despite being the best in this comparison review, it must be told that it's also older, just a bit heavier and thicker. LG V30 counts with a slightly better screen than Google Pixel XL, because it has a slightly better 1440 x 2880 resolution, a quite larger display and a just a bit more pixels per inch in the screen.
LG V30 features a superior memory capacity to store more apps and games than Google Pixel XL, because although it has just 64 GB internal memory capacity, it also counts with a slot for an external memory card that allows up to 1,95 TB. LG V30 counts with a bit superior processor than Google Pixel XL, and although they both have a 4 GB RAM, the LG V30 also has 4 more cores.
LG V30 counts with just a bit better camera than Google Pixel XL, because although it has a much smaller camera sensor capturing much worse quality photographs and videos, and they both have the same 3840x2160 video definition and the same video frame rates, the LG V30 also counts with a much more mega-pixels back facing camera and a bigger diafragm aperture to take better captures and videos in low light environments.
The Google Pixel XL features just a little better battery duration than LG V30, because it has 3450mAh of battery capacity.
Although Google Pixel XL is a better device, it costs a lot more than the LG V30, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as LG V30. So if you need that extra specs and features, you can buy Google Pixel XL, otherwise you can save a couple dollars and buy the LG V30, letting go a couple features and specifications.
