Comparison review
The iPhone XR is a bit better than the LG V30, getting a overall score of 82 against 79.1. The iPhone XR body is newer, but somewhat heavier and thicker than LG V30. LG V30 features a bit more vivid display than Apple iPhone XR, because although it has a little smaller screen, it also counts with a much better resolution of 1440 x 2880 and a way better pixel number per inch of display.
LG V30 features much more memory to store more apps and games than iPhone XR, and although they both have equal 64 GB internal storage, the LG V30 also has an external memory card slot that admits up to 1,95 TB. The Apple iPhone XR has a bit more powerful CPU than LG V30, because although it has 2 less cpu cores and 1 GB less RAM memory, it also counts with a 64-bit processor.
The Apple iPhone XR has a bit better camera than LG V30, because although it has a tinier aperture which is not so good for low light photos and videos, a much lower 12 MP resolution camera in the back and a worse (4K) video definition, it also counts with a bigger back-facing camera sensor capturing better quality pictures and videos.
The LG V30 has a little better battery lifetime than iPhone XR, because it has a 3300mAh battery capacity against 2942mAh.
Although iPhone XR is a better device, it costs a lot more money than the LG V30, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the LG V30. If you want to save a few dollars, you can buy the LG V30, giving up some specs and features, but you'll get the most out of your savings.
