Yesterday we saw that despite having been in stores for a few months, the LG G3 was still a pretty interesting alternative to Galaxy S6, especially for those who do not want to make a too large outlay, and today it is his turn to face him the brand new HTC One M9. Which of the two offers us better characteristics? And which one better quality / price ratio? We show you a comparative with the Technical specifications of both to help you decide.
Integrated
This is a strong point of both devices, although for different reasons, since when LG G3 It is characterized by a design aimed at maximizing its functionality (reducing the volume of the device to the maximum, location of the buttons), while those who are looking for premium finishes will probably opt for the HTC One M9, thanks to its elegant aluminum housing.
Dimensions
El LG G3 It has a clear advantage, in any case, if we compare the screen / size ratio of both smartphones, with a minimal difference in dimensions (14,46x6,97 inch against 14,63 x 7,46 cm) despite having a screen no less than half an inch larger. It also has a similar weight, even less, (157 grams against 149 grams) and is also alg thinner (9,6 mm against 8,9 mm).
Screen
In addition to the aforementioned size difference (5.5 inches against 5 inches), The LG G3 has in its favor a much higher resolution (1920 x 1080 against 2560 x 1440), enough to maintain a much higher pixel density despite being larger (PPI 441 against PPI 538).
Performance
In this section in which the balance is tilted on the side of the HTC One M9Thanks to its Snapdragon 810 de eight cores a 2,0 GHz and its 3 GB RAM memory. Nor can it be said, in any case, that the LG G3 is not also well served, with a Snapdragon 801 de quad core a 2,5 GHz y 2 or 3 GB RAM memory, depending on the model.
Storage capacity
Tie in the storage capacity section, with a maximum of 32 GB of internal memory but with the possibility of expanding it up to 128 GB externally through micro-SD in both cases. You have to take into account with the LG G3However, the internal memory and RAM they are associated (the 16 GB model has 2 GB of RAM and the 32 GB model has 3 GB).
Cameras
Victory is for him HTC One M9 considering the number of megapixels of the main camera (20 MP against 13 MP) and the front (4 MP brake to 2,2 MP), although the LG G3 has the extra of having optical image stabilizer. In both cases we have dual LED flash on the back.
Battery
We will have to wait for the independent tests to confirm it, but the HTC One M9 It should be superior in autonomy, since it has a battery with a lower capacity than that of the LG G3 but quite close2840 mAh against 3000 mAh), and with a smaller screen with a lower resolution. The eight-core processor with big.LITTLE architecture should also help improve its consumption. It is also necessary to think that, in fact, this is not one of the strongest points of the smartphone of LG.
Price
Although the advantage is a little less than compared to the Galaxy S6, the truth is that the LG G3 It is still a much cheaper option, with a price that, a few months after its launch, in some distributors is already around $350, Whereas the HTC One M9 would go on sale for $649, which is not twice as much, but it is quite close to it.
