LG G5 vs Samsung Galaxy S7 edge and S7 | Pocketnow

When it comes to choosing the right smartphone this year, companies like Samsung and LG could not have made it more complicated.

Samsung and LG are both in very different stages with their respective flagship offerings. Last year Samsung was experimenting with metal and glass on the Galaxy S6, and LG decided to play it safe with the G4. Today the tables have turned. Samsung has now decided to refine what it started, while LG has decided to boldly go where no smartphone has gone in a while. As a result we’re left with a very difficult comparison since one product is naturally at a better stage than the other.

Both the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge are the result of a more mature Samsung. The company has acknowledged that looks aren’t everything, and has launched a new line-up of flagships that match good looks with expandability. By contrast, the G5 is the result of a more daring LG. The company knows that power users want a phone without compromise, and the G5 intends to solve these needs in a very creative way.

Samsung's Settings menu isn't tabbed by default. Certain carrier version software has the menu tabbed, AT&T.

Also, The LG G5 has an IR Blaster, whereas the S7 and S7 Edge don't. That's critical for me.
