Introduction
The Apple iPhone 6 Plus is the first phablet from Cupertino. Being a premium device with a 5.5-inch display, we couldn't resist comparing it to the mighty LG G3 - a phablet of elegance, simplicity, and monster specs. However, instead of merely offering our opinion about the two devices, we want to see yours this time around. Read carefully, check out the benchmarks and samples, and vote for the better smartphone in each category - Design, Display, Interface and Functionality, and Camera. Go!
The iPhone 6 Plus couldn't be named any more appropriately, because it is, literally, an iPhone 6 that's one size bigger. It features an unmistakable iconic look, a gorgeous anodized aluminium build, and a control layout centered around the Home button below. Its power and volume keys are positioned on the sides of the body. In contrast, the LG G3 has no control keys - it is manipulated with on-screen software buttons - and its volume and power buttons are positioned on the back panel, out of sight. LG took plastic over metal, but ended up with a looker of a phablet nevertheless. Notably, the plastic has an anti-fingerprint coating, and it's "ennobled" with a faux metal finish. Additionally, it allows for a removable back panel and easy battery swapping and replacement.
In terms of dimensions, the iPhone 6 Plus measures 6.22 x 3.06 x 0.28 inches (158.1 x 77.8 x 7.1 mm) at 6.07 oz (172 g), while the LG G3 is a more compact 5.76 x 2.94 x 0.35 inches (146.3 x 74.6 x 8.9 mm) at 5.26 oz (149 g). Although both phablets' screens have an identical diagonal of 5.5 inches, the iPhone 6 Plus is 0.46 inches (11.8mm) taller, 0.12 inches (3.2mm) wider, and 0.07 inches (1.8mm) thinner than the LG G3, while being 0.81 oz (23 g) heavier.
