Comparison Apple iPhone vs 6 Plus Galaxy Note 4 and LG G3 – GSMinfo nl

For years, the market for phablets been dominated by Samsung. The Korean manufacturer was the first smartphones with large screens put on the market, and sequential Galaxy Note handsets were every time very successful. Although several manufacturers had their own phablets in terms of success and positive critiques could actually no match for devices like the Galaxy Note 3.

Earlier this month, Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Note 4, but it seems the manufacturer for the first time get effective competition. So Apple will release the iPhone in late September 6 Plus with 5.5 inch screen and LG introduced earlier this summer also fairly hefty G3. Three large smartphones with powerful hardware and an attractive design: enough choice for phabletfanaten the coming months. But what is the best phablet of 2014? GSMinfo.nl puts the Samsung Galaxy Note 4, iPhone 6 Plus and LG G3 together.

Design

Or a smartphone beautiful or not beautiful, that’s a subjective thing. Moreover, we have the Note 4 and iPhone 6 Plus is not yet comprehensive enough to try to assess whether the devices feel good quality. Our preliminary expectations are positive: Apple’s smartphones typically have excellent build quality, and Note 4 seems to be well put together. The LG G3, which we have already tested extensively has at least one design that high-end feel.

However, there are some objective factors to assess the design such as the weight and size. The LG G3 is the lightest of the three, with a weight of 149 grams. The iPhone 6 Plus and Galaxy Note 4 weigh 172 and 176 grams respectively. It should be noted that the Note 4 has a slightly larger screen than the appliances from LG and Apple, but the G3 is clearly the lightest.

In addition, the LG G3 is the most compact. LG, the edges around the screen to know as little as possible, and that the manufacturer has a reduced bezel big screen in a compact body managed to cram. The Note 4 and iPhone 6 Plus are about the same width, but the 6 Plus is still a little higher. Apple’s smartphone is the largest of three. Interestingly, because the Note 4 has a larger screen. The iPhone 6 Plus is a full inch higher than G3, and a few millimeters wider.

However, the iPhone 6 Plus thinner than the competition. Apple’s smartphone has a thickness of 7.1 millimeters, while the discs 4 and G3 at 8.5 and 8.9 millimeter, respectively, seated. LG still wins here as we are concerned we would rather have a very small bezel than a thinner smartphone. A full inch lower G3 makes it easier to use with one hand, while two millimeter difference barely noticeable in your pocket in thickness falls.

Screen

The iPhone 6 Plus is Apple’s first smartphone with a Full HD screen. Apple, however, is very late with that resolution Android smartphones offer it for years. The G3 and Note 4, even go a step beyond, offering a QHD resolution of 1440×2560 pixels. These devices are therefore at more than 500 pixels per inch, while the 6 Plus only takes just 400 pixels per inch.

Whether that is really much matter is moreover still questionable. All those extra pixels you can hardly distinguish with the naked eye. Put your G3 alongside a full HD smartphone, you might notice just that LG’s handset provides sharper images. On paper winning the phones from LG and Samsung, so here, but the usefulness of a QHD resolution on your smartphone is still not really proven.

Then there is the chosen display technology. Apple and LG both adopt iPS LCD, while the Note 4 of a Super AMOLED screen is provided. IPS LCD screens often offer a better viewing angle and sharp contrast, while Super AMOLED screens are more colorful but also have a deeper black. On the Galaxy S5 images splashed rush of the screen, so vivid and clear they were. The screen of the Note 4 appears to be. Similar high quality

Reviewers in the screen of the iPhone 6 Plus can not yet extensive testing, but typically includes Apple’s smartphones with high-quality displays. The screen of the G3 is able to provide a good contrast with excellent viewing angles. Yet the four discs in our opinion the (provisional) winner here. Samsung’s screens are extremely bright, making them easy to read even in direct sunlight. The vibrant colors make Samsung’s phablet very pleasant to look at.

Hardware

The Galaxy Note 4 is one of the first smartphones equipped with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 805, a very powerful quad core clocked by Samsung to 2.5GHz. The G3 has a 2.5 GHz quad-core, but it should still do it with the older Snapdragon 801 Apple builds its own hardware, and the iPhone 6 Plus is also equipped with Apple’s A8 processor. The strength of this is unknown; Apple rarely gives such details free for the release of a device. Early indications are talking about a dual-core 1.5 GHz to 2

The result may seem that the iPhone 6 Plus is a lot less powerful than the G3 and Note 4 In practice, the difference is probably limited. Apple does with its hardware, but to take into account one smartphone and one operating system, while Qualcomm’s products can be found in hundreds, if not thousands of different smartphones, tablets, TVs and more. As a result, the iPhone 6 Plus Apple A8 can maximize.

The exact iPhone 6 Plus and Galaxy Note four benchmarks, we know that only when the units are for sale. Chances are that the Note 4 most powerful smartphone this autumn, but the difference with the competition is probably not even that big. Come On top of that high-end smart phones are already equipped with a time of hardware that is often exaggerated powered

For the average user, the hardware, for example the much cheaper Moto G probably good enough. 90% the popular apps will run smoothly on it. The three high-end smartphones that we discuss in this unit have a slightly higher resolution and thus have more power needed to drive all those pixels, but that does not mean that you will have to use. Rarely the full potential of the hardware Graphic intensive games that all that power need are scarce, and something simpler like Candy Crush, Angry Birds or just anyway WhatsApp will run smoothly.

Camera

All three smartphones have optical image stabilization . This ensures that the videos you create fewer problems of movement. Make your example, a video while cycling, it would in all three smartphones relatively limited vibrate. The LG G3 optical image stabilization works fine, the Note 4 and iPhone 6 Plus we have not tested it.

The maximum video resolution of the iPhone 6 Plus is Full HD, while the Note 4 and LG G3 both 4K videos can make. Although there are very few devices that 4K videos can play, it makes the Android smartphones have much more future proof. It’s always nice to be able to store your videos. At the highest possible resolution Then you can always decide later if you want to lower to reduce. Extent the resolution Sadly lacking from the iPhone 6 Plus so.

It is still difficult to assess the camera. These three devices On paper, the Note 4 seems to have the best. Camera Apple’s device still has only 8 megapixels, the LG G3 offers 13 megapixels, while the Note 4 goes to 16 megapixel. However, this only means that the four discs at a higher resolution photographs, but the recorded image may still be quite grainy.

Apple chooses for years for an 8-megapixel camera, but generally it seems good to suits. The iPhone 5S made better pictures than many Android competitors last year, although the latter category often more megapixels able to offer. In a few weeks we will know if the property is how these cameras of these smartphones do it in practice, but you’ll probably all three beautiful pictures can make.

Android vs. iOS: Phabletsoftware

Samsung operates in the phabletmarkt for years, and every year adds new features for the big screen. The bulk of Samsung’s software additions built around the S Pen, the included stylus. You can not only use it to create, for example S Note, notes, you can now easily take screenshots of any part of the screen. With press the S Pen button open your Air Command, where you can find. Phabletfeatures a multitude of

There are also on the Galaxy Note 4 different ways to multitask with Multi Window. You can not just have two apps open side by side at the same time, you can levitate. A small window from one app over another app Multi Window works smoothly, quickly, and makes it a lot easier to be on your smartphone productive.

Apple has a few tricks to simplify the use of the big screen with one hand. So you can double tap the Home button to bring. The top half of the screen down For example, you can easily get to the address bar in your browser. Also, the iOS homescreen in landscape format usable now, like many other Apple apps. Options to multitask with multiple apps open at once sadly lacking.

Price

we look at retail prices, then both the iPhone 6 Plus and Note 4 quite pricey. Both get from the manufacturer with a prize of 799 euros, making it the most expensive smartphones of 2014. In practice, the Note 4 will likely be something cheaper because Samsung’s smartphone soon in price bags. However, Apple’s devices are often reasonable fixed value, and are only cheaper in the introduction of a new device.

Both devices, however, obscenely expensive compared to the LG G3 MSRP. LG’s smartphone is already available for about 450 euros. Even the G3 32GB will cost you no more than 550 euro. LG seems to have been quite willing to compete on price, and that is to notice. The G3 is cheaper than almost all other high-end smartphones that will appear this fall.

Conclusion

When two dogs fight over a bone, the third one back. The LG G3 is maybe a bit forgotten in the marketing of violence that erupts between Samsung and Apple this fall, but deserves much attention. In terms of hardware, screen and LG’s design unit can effortlessly with the competition, while the retail price is several hundred dollars lower.

That is not to say that the LG G3 in all areas the undisputed best smartphone this autumn. The battery life could be better and the software and extra features are somewhat limited compared to the competition. And yet, our preference is to LG’s flagship. The Galaxy Note 4 and iPhone 6 Plus excellent smart phones seem to be going, but the retail price is so high that we recommend you to first have a moment to look around.
