Comparison review
LG G3 has a general score of 76.4, which is a little bit better than the HTC One's 70.5 general score. These phones come with the same Android 5.0 operating system, so you shouldn't perceive any differences regarding OS features. The LG G3 construction is newer and just a little thinner than the HTC One's, but it is also a little heavier.
LG G3 has a bit faster processor than HTC One, and although they both have a Quad-Core processor, the LG G3 also has a faster 450 megahertz GPU and 1 GB more RAM memory. LG G3 features a better display than HTC One, because it has a just a little higher pixel count per inch of screen, a higher 2560 x 1440 pixels resolution and a larger display.
The LG G3 has just a bit bigger storage to store more apps and games than HTC One, because although it has only 32 GB internal storage, it also counts with a slot for SD memory cards that allows a maximum of 128 GB. The LG G3 features longer battery performance than HTC One, because it has a 3000mAh battery size against 2300mAh.
LG G3 counts with a better camera than HTC One, because although it has a tinier aperture which is not good for low-light photos and videos and a smaller sensor providing a lower image quality, it also counts with a way more mega pixels camera and a much better 3840x2160 (4K) video quality.
The LG G3 costs more than the HTC One, but it's still a great choice, because you can get a lot more for that extra money.
