The LG Velvet features a much better battery duration than Samsung Galaxy A6, because it has a 4300mAh battery capacity. LG Velvet shoots much better videos and photos than Galaxy A6, because although it has a smaller diafragm aperture which is worse for capturing photos in low light situations, it also counts with a much higher 3840x2160 video quality, a back-facing camera with way more mega-pixels and a much larger back camera sensor taking more light and vivid colors.
Although LG Velvet is a better device, it is way more expensive than Galaxy A6, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the Galaxy A6. So if you need that extra features, you can buy the LG Velvet, but if you don't you can save a couple dollars and get the Galaxy A6, resigning a couple specifications.
