The long released Samsung Galaxy S4, Sony Xperia Z & HTC One have not even lost their prime yet and there is something above them already. Yes I said above them because these beast’s are in for serious business here. The LG G2 successor to their last year Optimus G is the Snapdragon 800 beast which is not going to come down any sooner and what stand against its prime is the New Sony Xperia Z1 having some great tricks up its sleeve along with the Snapdragon 800 powering it.
The LG G2 is a very well designed phone, it also has some innovation to it with the unique button layout that it poses. The LG G2 takes the power & Volume buttons to the back panel of the phone (usually on the side). This may sound absurd but it is really handy when you get used to it. The maine reason for such an approach from LG is the Bezel-less design of the LG G2 (nearly bezel-less). On the other hand Sony puts is a beautiful design to its Xperia Z1, the design takes the similarities from its predecessor the Sony Xperia Z, yes you are right this means its is IP58 certified so no dust n water is gonna ruin it for you. Sony Xperia Z1 has its 20.7 MP camera to make it unique but the LG G2 poses a video recording capability of 1080p @ 60fps, also the LG G2 is a host of many smart features build into it by LG.
