Galaxy S7 vs LG G5: Battle of the Best

2016-06-21
it's never been a better time to buy a smartphone pretty much everyone out there is good there just varying degrees of what they do better we put a poll out on Twitter to compare to smartphones overwhelmingly you guys wanted to see the LG g5 versus the Samsung Galaxy s7 this comparison I'm not gonna focus on specs and compare processors Ram both phones work fast both phones will do pretty much whatever you need them to do let's jump right in with the camera starting with the Samsung Galaxy s7 it does share its camera third galaxy s7 edge if you want to use that fist comparison as well both Samsung devices Rock a 12 megapixel rear camera with an ass 1.7 aperture optical image stabilization or oh is I'd call it ice and a 5 megapixel front-facing camera with a wide-angle lens LG on the other hand took a fresh approach with the g5 did that risk pay off the g5 comes at the pretty unique camera setup it's got two cameras on the back one is 16 megapixel with an F 1.8 aperture and oh is as well say next to a wide-angle lens at 8 megapixels as well as a megapixel front-facing sensor the galaxy s7 s got better dynamic range in the LG g5 the g5 tends to crush shadows whose all taking the loss of a ton of detail both LG g5 cameras are sixteen by nine while Samsung went back to the tried-and-true four by three this gives it less horizontal coverage but way more vertical they're different resolutions to 16 megapixels for the LG g5 versus 12 for the s7 giving the LG an edge in pretty good normal light you will however absolutely notice distortion when shooting white photos at the LG g5 this is just kind of par for the course the camera this Wyatt at half the resolution in a wider field of view the white camera just will not compete when it comes to the finest of details so a verdict on the camera the white camera on the g5 is a totally new way to look at pictures and take them on a phone the dual camera was kinda gimmicky on the g5 it was there mostly for the selfie camera but capturing so much in the scene for one picture is really cool to see the galaxy s7 has faster autofocus and just better shot the shot time it also offers better processing but it's just really tuned for me though if I got to pick one of these suckers up I'm picking up the LG g5 photos look way more natural and I think have more accurate colors so while it always helps Samsung's cameras in high esteem I think they've been the market leader when it comes displays the screen on the galaxy s7 is a 5.1 inch Super AMOLED 1440 by 2560 display the g5 is a little bit bigger at 5.3 inches in the same resolution both have almost identical screen to body ratios just like a hair over 70% which is a gross way to say a little bit more than 70% the screen on a g5 is world's better than what we have in the g4 and versus almost any other phone this would be a way closer battle but it just can't compete with the galaxy s7 and galaxy s7 edge screen you've got Super AMOLED display you've got guerrilla glass you've got incredible viewing angles the blacks look really black colors look bright vibrant outdoor visibility is better than what you get on the g5 if I got a pixel on these phones just based on screens 100 out of 100 times I'm going to the Samsung so without intangibles there's a lot that both these phones brings the table Samsung has refined the galaxy s6 built almost perfection and Elliott added expandable storage 1960 at waterproofing all that coupled with fast charging both wired and wireless the gear VR Samsung pay gorilla glass you've got a really well rounded phone but it's not perfect software while silvina Samsung's ever made it is still bulky and oftentimes cumbersome the speakers are muffled presumably from the waterproofing and a 3000 milliamp hour battery goes super fast LG like the popular kid in high school brings its friends along and these friends are important to some an extra battery the cam plus and the LG 360 cam if you need a removable battery your shirt should start and stop with the g5 but the phone is not perfect so I commend LG for taking your brand new approach to phones but the benefits of modularity at least as it exists today are outweighed by traditional design and that's IB 68 for me if they're partners or even LG themselves will start to offer more modular friends the g5 could be a huge hit I think we're getting there but having a phone that's modular having a phone who's modules are useful are very different LG did an incredible job with the g5 I don't think we'll see the full vision realize until we get to the g6 they're both really solid options but based on the comparisons and tangibles screen and camera think I got to go for the Samsung what do you guys think do you agree or disagree did you pick up one of these phones give the video a thumbs up be certainly always appreciate it leave comments down below till next time John renter from TechnoBuffalo see you guys next video so as you guys
