Motorola Moto X (2014) vs Samsung Galaxy Note 4 vs LG G3: spec comparison

The new Motorola Moto X has broken cover today and it’s time we compared it against two other heavy-weight flagship devices, two phablets, in fact: the just-unveiled Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and the already available LG G3.

First, let’s say that the 5.2-inch Moto X is noticeably more compact than the pretty large Note 4 and G3, so when you pick between these devices your first and foremost concern should be about deciding on the right size for you.

For all else, though, we are looking at three of the most powerful devices on the market right now. The new Moto X features a Snapdragon 801 system chip, just as the LG G3, and only the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 can brag with having the newer Snapdragon 805. However, the difference in performance is mitigated by the fact that the Note 4 has a tougher task with that 1440 x 2560-pixel Quad HD display with its much higher pixel load, while the Moto X’s 1080p screen does not put such a strain on performance.

You can pick up the rest of the differences between these three in the table right below, and feel free to also share your thoughts about how much specs affect your buying decisions these days as the difference between devices are starting to become less noticeable.
