LG Velvet has a way bigger memory for applications, games, photos and videos than nubia Z20, and although they both have the same 128 GB internal memory capacity, the LG Velvet also has an external memory slot that allows up to 1,95 TB. The nubia Z20 has a little bit better processing power than LG Velvet, and although they both have the same number of cores, the nubia Z20 also has 2 GB more RAM memory.
The LG Velvet takes clearer photographs and videos than nubia Z20, because although it has a tinier aperture which is not good for low light images and videos, and they both have the same 3840x2160 (4K) video definition, a same resolution back-facing camera and a 0.5 inches camera sensor, the LG Velvet also counts with faster video frame rates.
