Comparison review
The LG V30 has a global score of 79.1, which is a bit better than LG G6's score of 75.6. LG V30's design is just a bit lighter and a bit thinner than the LG G6, although both were released only 6 months apart. The LG G6 counts with a little more vivid screen than LG V30, because although it has a quite smaller screen, and they both have the same exact resolution of 1440 x 2880 pixels, the LG G6 also counts with a little better screen pixel density.
The LG V30 has a little bit better performance than LG G6, and although they both have a 4 GB RAM, the LG V30 also has more processing cores. The LG V30 counts with a greater storage for applications and games than LG G6, and although they both have an external memory card slot that holds up to 1,95 TB, the LG V30 also has 64 GB internal storage.
The LG V30 takes slightly better videos and photos than LG G6, because although it has a smaller camera sensor which gives a worse photo and video quality, and they both have the same 3840x2160 video definition and the same 30 frames per second video frame rates, the LG V30 also counts with a camera with more megapixels and a larger camera aperture for better captures in low-light environments.
LG V30 and LG G6 have quite similar batteries performance.
Although LG V30 is a better device, it is a lot more expensive than LG G6, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as the LG G6. If you are trying to save some money, you can buy the LG G6, giving up a couple features and specs, but you'll get the most out of your money.
