Comparison review
Apple iPhone SE (2020) has a score of 81.5, which is just a bit better than the LG V30's 79.1 general score. Apple iPhone SE (2020)'s design has the same thickness than the LG V30, but it is a little lighter. The iPhone SE (2020) features a greater performance than LG V30, because although it has lesser cores (although they are faster) and a lower amount of RAM memory, it also counts with a 64 bits processing unit.
LG V30 counts with just a bit better screen than iPhone SE (2020), because it has a much higher 1440 x 2880 resolution, a bigger screen and a lot better number of pixels per inch of display. Apple iPhone SE (2020) has a slightly better camera than LG V30, because although it has a worse 3840x2160 (4K) video definition, a smaller aperture which is not so good for low-light photos and a way lower 12 megapixels resolution back camera, it also counts with a larger camera sensor taking more light and vivid colors.
The LG V30 counts with a superior storage for apps and games than iPhone SE (2020), and although they both have the same 64 GB internal memory capacity, the LG V30 also has a SD extension slot that allows a maximum of 1,95 TB.
