Comparison review
The Galaxy Note 3 is slightly better than the LG V10, having a global score of 81.1 against 78.6. Both phones in this comparison review include Android OS, but the Galaxy Note 3 has 5.0 version while LG V10 has Android 5.1 version. Galaxy Note 3's construction is a little bit thinner and somewhat lighter than the LG V10, despite of the fact that it was released 2 years before.
The Galaxy Note 3 has a faster CPU than LG V10, because although it has less RAM, it also counts with a larger number of cores (and also faster) and a graphics processor. The LG V10 features a bit more vivid screen than Samsung Galaxy Note 3, and although they both have a display with the same size, the LG V10 also has a higher display density and a higher 2560 x 1440 resolution.
The LG V10 features a superior memory to install games and applications than Samsung Galaxy Note 3, and although they both have exactly the same 64 GB internal memory capacity, the LG V10 also has a SD memory slot that admits a maximum of 1,95 TB. LG V10 has a superior camera than Galaxy Note 3, and although they both have the same 3840x2160 video definition, the LG V10 also has faster 120 fps video frame rates, a larger aperture to take better images and video in low light situations, a bigger back camera sensor capturing more light and vivid colors and a more mega pixels back-facing camera.
Samsung Galaxy Note 3 features just a little bit longer battery duration than LG V10, because it has a 3200mAh battery size against 3000mAh.
Although Galaxy Note 3 is a better device, it is a lot more expensive than LG V10, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as LG V10. If you are trying to save some dollars, you can get the LG V10, and give up a couple features, but you'll get the most with your budget.
