Galaxy Note5 features a little bit better camera than LG G3, and although they both have the same 3840x2160 (4K) video definition and the same 30 fps video frame rates, the Galaxy Note5 also has a way bigger aperture to capture better captures and videos in poorly lited environments, a larger back-facing camera sensor providing a higher image quality and a camera in the back with a better resolution.
