Comparison review
The iPhone XS Max has a global score of 84.5, which is a little bit better than the LG V30S ThinQ's 82.5 global score. Despite being the best we compare here, we must note that it is also noticeably heavier and a bit thicker. IPhone XS Max features just a bit better hardware performance than LG V30S ThinQ, because although it has a lower number of cores and less RAM, it also counts with a 64-bit processor.
Apple iPhone XS Max features a bit more vivid screen than LG V30S ThinQ, because although it has a just a bit less pixels per display inch and a little lower 1242 x 2688 pixels resolution, it also counts with a quite bigger screen. The iPhone XS Max features a little bit better camera than LG V30S ThinQ, because although it has a smaller aperture which is not favorable for taking photographs in low light environments, a lower 3840x2160 video definition and a lot worse resolution camera in the back, it also counts with a bigger camera sensor capturing more light and vivid colors.
LG V30S ThinQ counts with a very superior memory for apps and games than iPhone XS Max, because it has 128 GB internal memory and a slot for SD memory cards that admits up to 1,95 TB. The LG V30S ThinQ counts with just a little better battery life than Apple iPhone XS Max, because it has a 3300mAh battery capacity.
Although Apple iPhone XS Max is a better device, it costs more money than the LG V30S ThinQ, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as LG V30S ThinQ. So if you want that extra specs and features, you can buy the Apple iPhone XS Max, but if you don't you can save some money and get the LG V30S ThinQ, giving up some specifications.
