Comparison review
The Galaxy Note II has a general score of 71.9, which is much better than LG Lucid's 57.3 score. The Galaxy Note II construction is incredibly heavier but somewhat thinner than the LG Lucid, and both were released only a few months apart. Both phones in this review have Android OS, but Galaxy Note II has the newer 4.1 version while LG Lucid has Android 4.0.4, so it gives a couple nice extra features.
Galaxy Note II counts with a bit sharper display than LG Lucid, because it has a lot larger display, a just a bit better pixel density and a much better resolution of 1280 x 720px. The Samsung Galaxy Note II has a very superior memory capacity for applications and games than LG Lucid, because it has an external SD slot that supports up to 64 GB and 16 GB internal storage.
The Galaxy Note II counts with a quite better hardware performance than LG Lucid, because it has a larger amount of RAM memory, a graphics co-processor and a higher number of cores (and they are faster). Samsung Galaxy Note II has a much better battery lifetime than LG Lucid, because it has a 3100mAh battery size.
Galaxy Note II counts with a lot better camera than LG Lucid, and although they both have the same video frame rate and the same 1920x1080 (Full HD) video definition, the Galaxy Note II also has a back facing camera with a lot higher 8 megapixels resolution.
Galaxy Note II is not only the best devices of the ones we are comparing here, but it's also the cheapest one.
