Comparison review
The Galaxy Note9 is a little bit better than the LG G8X ThinQ, with an 87.1 score against 82.7. Despite being the best in this comparison review, it must be told that it is also an older, a little bit heavier and just a little thicker device. The Samsung Galaxy Note9 has a processor that's just as good as the CPU in LG G8X ThinQ, they have a 6 GB RAM memory and a Octa-Core CPU.
Samsung Galaxy Note9 features just a bit better looking screen than LG G8X ThinQ, and although they both have a screen of the same size, the Samsung Galaxy Note9 also has a better pixel number in each inch in the display and a better resolution of 1440 x 2960px. LG G8X ThinQ features a much better storage for apps and games than Galaxy Note9, and although they both have equal 128 GB internal memory capacity, the LG G8X ThinQ also has an external memory slot that allows a maximum of 1,95 TB.
The Galaxy Note9 and LG G8X ThinQ both feature quite similar batteries duration. The Samsung Galaxy Note9 counts with a slightly better camera than LG G8X ThinQ, and although they both have a 0.39 inches sensor, the same 60 frames per second video frame rates, the same video quality and a 12 MP resolution back facing camera, the Samsung Galaxy Note9 also has a bigger diafragm aperture.
Although Samsung Galaxy Note9 is a better device, it costs a lot more than LG G8X ThinQ, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the LG G8X ThinQ. If you are trying to save some money, you can buy LG G8X ThinQ, and give up a few specs and features, but you will get the most out of your budget.
