a couple of new kids on the block are about to go head-to-head eight Josh of agar from Andhra Authority what's going on everybody and this is the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 versus the LG g2 in a quick look in a way these two phones are quite similar in that both represent changes in their respective lines the g2 dropping the Optimus and its name is much like the galaxy s4 in its form and material opting for the glossy plastic and has a 5-inch screen the button layout has been moved to the back and is a unique way of using the smartphone that becomes pretty natural after a little time the other feat of the g2 is it's thinner bezels that give it a 5.2 inch screen thinner Bessel's are also found on a note 3 which allow it a similar increase of 0.2 inches for each screen now at 5.7 as a larger device two-handed operation will obviously be more common especially considering the usage of the s-pen the new changes in the note 3 actually involved the overall material instead of the glossy plastic Samsung went for a textured plastic that alleviates the finger printing and slippery field that the g2 can get in display the IPS display of the LG g2 brings a lot of expected brightness to the display game but LG has been able to create a color saturation profile that actually rivals the Super AMOLED that Samsung has consistently brought out it's a great display at 5.2 inches and is comparable to the 5.7 inch screen on the note 3 which is like a larger version of the grey performer that was originally on the galaxy s4 when it comes to specifications we actually have a little bit more level playing field both phones employed the Snapdragon 800 processor clocked in at 2.2 6 gigahertz backed by the audrina 330 the note 3 does have an edge with 3 gigabytes of RAM aside from the standard 2 gigabytes like is found in dg2 that extra ram is important for all of the multitasking that the note 3 is capable of especially considering the new S Pen functionality the note 3 also has a little bit of an edge by having a removable back which allows for a replaceable battery and expandable memory when it comes to the camera LG put a lot of new features in the g2 that we might have seen iterated in the Samsung Galaxy s4 so in creative smartphone photography things are a little more evened out here as well as the note 3 camera employs pretty much everything the s4 s camera was capable of the trump card in the g2 is its implementation of optical image stabilization which is a feature we thought would come in the note 3 but didn't make the final cut and in software both LG and samsung have been striving to add new features and functionality to their respective Android versions and in the case of the g2 there are a few new multitasking options slide aside is one particular new and notable feature and for the note 3 we have the S Pen that has been updated with the air commands menu that includes smart memos and small app windows while LG's optimus UI has grown quite a bit the TouchWiz of the note 3 is bolstered by the S Pen if a stylus experience is more appealing to you it's pretty obvious which device to look at here and so there you have it LG and Samsung are going head-to-head with their close releases of their flagship phones if there's one thing that the note 3 does make me wonder its what the pro version of the g2 will look like since the original Optimus G pro is closer to a note device offered by LG we'll have to see what the g2 in the future and for the rest of our galaxy note 3 and LG g2 coverage make sure you stay tuned to Android authority
