Xiaomi Mi4 vs LG G3: video comparison

Those of Xiaomi y LG They have been two of the last flagship terminals to appear during what can be considered as a long first half of 2014. The truth is that the comparison presented today is really curious because, despite the fact that both smartphones have a very technical base Similarly, the subsequent development of each signature is diametrically opposite. Xiaomi Mi4 vs LG G3: Which is better?

We are facing two true technological beasts and anyone will satisfy a demanding user, however, each team works on different concepts. The LG G3 has precisely obtained an important award this past week in charge of the EISA and it is a terminal that it has already started to sink in on the Android platform.

Xiaomi, on the other hand, is a company very focused for now on the Chinese market. At the moment, it is very difficult to get a Mi4; although Hugo Barra is planning a strategy to deploy the firm's catalog internationally and to do so that soon we can enjoy their teams around the world with a minimum regularity.

Design, two very peculiar bets

While LG has chosen to give prominence to the display of 5,5 inches in the G3, being the largest in the flagships of the first part of the year, that of Xiaomi remains at five inches, the smallest next to that of the HTC One M8. This is an aspect that clearly influences the size of both terminals, although the equipment of the Korean company has the best screen-to-front ratio today.

Other peculiar aesthetic features in the G3 are the buttons on the back and the metallic appearance of its rear, built in plastic. The Xiaomi Mi4, however, it has a construction of higher quality overall, especially in the profile, despite the fact that its rear part is also made of plastic and is much less cared for than in the case of its rival. The inspiration of the Chinese company was born, no doubt, from iPhone Apple, although in the video they mention in passing the similarity also with the Lumia 930.

Multimedia, the G3 has a plus

It is clear, the LG G3 is a device whose greatest value lies in the size and resolution of the screen, with 5,5 inches and 2560 × 1440 pixels, in addition, its display emits a greater brightness than that of the Xiaomi Mi4 and offers a less warm tonality, with more realistic colors. Your speaker does not reach the audio levels on the Xperia Z2 or HTC One M8 but it has a more powerful sound and also clearer than that of the Mi4.

As for the camera, both smartphones have a 13 megapixel sensor, however, the one of the G3, as we can see in the images that the video compares. The difference is especially pronounced in low light conditions, where the optical stabilizer that the Korean firm integrates in its latest high-end.

With the front camera things change: the Mi4 is going to allow us to take better selfies, thanks to its 8 mpx, while the G3 only has a resolution of 2 mpx.

Optimus OS vs MIUI

To be honest, the Optimus interface on the G2 was one of LG's weakest points as a manufacturer: it was too cluttered and had a old aesthetic, lacking in appeal. In this sense, the G3 has taken an important leap in quality by renewing its design and releasing ballast. its customization It has gone from being one of the worst to being one of the best on Android.

MIUI It has a good legion of fans behind it, and presents very powerful environments on an aesthetic level, again, influenced by Apple lines. However, it also presents some other negative points, such as integration with the google services. Xiaomi works with its own application store, which is all successful in China but is not so adapted to the European user. Play Store support is not native and it shows in some circumstances.

Conclusions

In general terms we could say that the LG G3 is a team more complete and that knows how to better develop a base technology, however, Xiaomi has brutal technical specifications, a better construction and its price is much lower. Also MIUI is a incentive for all lovers of this graphical interface.
