It's on: the LG G3 Stylus vs Samsung Galaxy Note 4, head-to-head at next week's IFA show in Berlin.
The LG G3 Stylus vs Samsung Galaxy Note 4 square-off is quite expected between the two tech giants, this considering Apple is also set to release its own iPhone phablet in the next few weeks. The staple features of a stylus phablet are intact in the release, but LG tones down the specs and markets a mid-range device.
It's hardly a coincidence that both LG and Samsung are unveiling phablets at the IFA, but the Galaxy Note 4 is considerably superior to the LG G3 Stylus, based on specs released on the press.
The LG G3 Stylus is a downgrade even in comparison to the LG G3; the latter is high-end, with a Quad HD resolution of 2,560 x 1,440 pixels, for starters. The Stylus version comes with 960 x 540 pixels stretched into a 5.5-inch screen, averaging into 200 pixels per square inch.
The LG G3 Stylus vs Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is a lopsided comparison; LG's phablet fares better against Samsung's Galaxy Note 3. Installed with Android KitKat (4.4.2) a 1.3-GHz quad-core processor, 13MP camera and 8GB (expandable) memory, the LG G3 Stylus doesn't pretend to be high-end, and is likely meant for emerging markets.
LG's phablet releases first in Brazil before launching internationally, similar to the company's previous releases to test markets. It's going to be a busy month this September, with the tech giants staking their shares in the mobile market.
Samsung will unveil its successor to the Galaxy Note 3 at the same event. The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 will reportedly have a 5.7-inch screen, at a whopping 2560 x 1440 pixels. Other features are still being grinded at the rumor mill, but the LG G3 Stylus vs Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is decided battle with all specs considered (source: ctvnews.ca).
