LG G5 vs. Samsung Galaxy S7 edge: Flagship slugfest
Flagship slugfest
Low-light photos
Samsung and LG one-up themselves with camera aperture. The S6 came out with f/1.9, the G4 countered with f/1.8. The Galaxy S7 edge snatches back the title with f/1.7 (the brightest we've seen on a phone) while the LG G5 sticks with f/1.8.
Samsung also specifically picked a sensor with fewer but larger pixels. This, combined with the aperture, gives the S7 95% more light to work with than its predecessor, the S6.

The Samsung Galaxy S7 edge definitely captures more detail in the dark, producing sharper images. It still underexposes the darkest parts of the image, but the LG G5 has to use stronger noise reduction to keep the noise in check. The darker it is, the more pronounced S7 edge's advantage is.

Sorry, but lg g5 doesn't have direct support to custom google cameras, also 120fps slow mo is very outdated that year for such flagship models.

You're not a very smart person are you? Have you used both phones for one day straight? Did you shot any photos or watched any 4k movie on them? Definitely no. So shut up and do your homework cuz' you don't know what you're talking about.
