Question

Iphone 7 plus vs lg v20 vs samsung note 7

Sep 9, 2016 10:24AM PDT

I am split and looking for some opinions on the lgv20 vs iphone 7 plus. I would even consider the note 7.


I know the phones have not come out yet. But I'm looking for some early insight/opinions to help me decide.

Please tell me what you would pick and why.

I'm mainly torn between the v20 and the iPhone 7 plus.

Clarification Request
I have to ask.

Have you owned an iPhone before? I find it's nice but I'm a little taken aback over how must I depend on Apple's own services for sync, apps and more.

If you never owned an Apple product this can be a shock.

Answer
all three are good phones

based on what I have read, all three are good phones. And yes, once the battery problem is fixed, the note 7 would be great.

first of all, I would get the phone where you have purchased apps for. apple has great security because of its closed environment but all accessories are so cotton pickin expensive.

You can do a lot more customizing with android phones. If you do not have a need for the stylus on the Note phone, get the Galaxy S7. basically the same phone but with out the iris scan and stylus.

If you want to know the technical difference between them, then you can do a search and find charts that has them.
