LG G3 has a bit bigger memory to install games and applications than HTC One, because although it has only 32 GB internal storage capacity, it also counts with an external memory card slot that supports up to 128 GB.
The LG G3 features a little better processing power than HTC One, and although they both have a Quad-Core processing unit, the LG G3 also has a faster 450 megahertz graphics processor and a greater amount of RAM memory. LG G3 counts with longer battery lifetime than HTC One, because it has a 3000mAh battery capacity against 2300mAh.
LG G3 takes much better pictures and videos than HTC One, because although it has a smaller camera sensor taking less light and washed colors and a smaller aperture which is not favorable for capturing photos or video in low-light situations, it also counts with a much higher 3840x2160 (4K) video quality and a way more MP camera.
The LG G3 not only is the best devices of the ones we compare here, but it's also the cheapest one.
