5 features that give the LG G5 an advantage over the iPhone 6s

It's here, folks! LG's radically re-imagined flagship, the G5, stepped away from the design language of its predecessors and arrived in a full metal coat, keeping up with the trends instead of trying to redefine them. All the while, however, it carries a lot of enhanced features, which have evolved naturally from previous top shelf LG smartphones, such as the dual camera concept, the fingerprint scanner / power button on its back, and the always-on display.

Naturally, comparisons will be drawn between LG's new heavy-hitter and competing devices, especially Apple's ever-popular iPhone 6s. Now, which phone is right for a person is usually a pretty subjective thing, but the LG G5 does pack a few features, which are undeniably, objectively better – either as on-paper specs or experience enhancers. We have a list of 5 essential ones – check them out below!

Apple’s 2024 flagship is still nothing to snark at. It has all the same software features, about the same cameras, save for super-pro modes like ProRes RAW Log 2 recording. If that didn’t mean anything to you, you’ll feel perfectly fine with an iPhone 16 Pro in your hands. And you save about $200 on what is essentially an excellent device that’s still hard to beat. Item prices vary by condition, color, and availability.
