Anjan, 22 Mar 2020How can you tell that v30 has better camera than g7? Which ... moreOther than somehow passable battery life of LG G7+, it was not a worthy purchase for me. The camera is one of the more major deal-breakers which led me to sell the phone last year and sticking to LG V30+.
I woefully disregarded Anandtech's highly regraded reviews coz I am a LG fan. Below is a quote from their LG G7 review which speak of my views ...
Anandtech
But the biggest disappointment from the G7 ended up being the camera. Even though the G7 employs the same main camera sensor as on the V30, with the same optics, the G7 consistently underperformed its sister flagship. I have no idea what happened here but the image processing on the G7 was just atrocious and absolutely not worthy of a flagship device. LG's heavy-handed and pointless usage of a harsh noise reduction filter which creates a water-colour effect essentially destroyed a large amount of detail in the vast majority of scenarios, defeating the purpose of having a 16MP sensor in the first place.
LG in 2018's - The Biggest Disappointment
If I were to name one device in 2018 as the biggest disappointment, then it's the LG G7. This was meant to be a major jump for the company and present itself as the alternative to Samsung's Galaxy S9 this year. Unfortunately I do not know what happened within the company this year, as the end products this year's phones just had notable deal-breaking flaws.
On the camera side, the G7 was a straight downgrade from last year's LG V30. For whatever inexplicable reason, LG's image processing this year was just terrible, with washed out or unnatural colours and blurred out details. I have given the company the benefit of the doubt as this could be fixed via software, but even 5 months after release with the latest firmware, the situation hasn't improved. The LG V40 is slightly better, but also showcases the same blurred out detail issues.
What has been of particular issue this year has been LG's own display panels: The G7's screen was promised to be very efficient, and this this true at high brightness levels, it came with a very high base power consumption that largely negated this benefit in daily scenarios.
The LG V40 is even worse in this regard - sporting one of the highest base power consumption levels I have seen in a smartphone over the last 5 or so years. The end result is that the V40 ends up among one of the worst battery life performances this year.
Here I think there's something that's fundamentally broken on the hardware side, and for some reason this display panel flaw seems to have permeated (To a lesser severity) to other vendor's devices which use LG screens, most notably the Huawei Mate 20 Pro and the small Pixel 3.
Both the G7 and V40 are devices which should not have been released in their respective states, and the fact that they were points out to QA issues at LG's hardware teams.

Yesterday bought a brand new LG V30+ from Flipkart (India) at just INR 11,700 ($156) without exchanging any old phone. Period.
Insane as it may sound this is a whupping 74% price drop from initial launch price of INR 45,000 ($600) in India. I already had the silver one last year @ INR 23,250 and now bought a new black one for my wife.
Flipkart provided this amazing offer to only their "Plus" members, that too for the first 3 hours of "Big Shopping Days" sale. The deal was just too hard to resist, hence bought it at a heartbeat.
Price was set to INR 13,000 ($174) for the 4/128 GB version in silver/ black colors only. After using credit cards, 10% flat discount was available bringing the price down to INR 11,700 ($156).
Delivery was fast too, the phone arriving today morning. Intially arrived with Android Oreo, upgraded to Android Pie. On the other hand, the LG G7+ (6/128 GB) was selling for INR 17,000 ($228) during that time. I have used both phones, and trust me in my user experience V30+ is the superior device.
Pros of V30+
1) Way better OLED display
2) Bigger and wider display for better multimedia consumption
3) Better battery life
4) Better Quad DAC implementation, V series have the best audio quality over headphone jack.
5) Better camera
6) Currently cheaper than G7+ by INR 4,000 ($54)
Pros of LG G7+
1) Processor is one generation ahead, more powerful
2) Dual SIM VoLTE support
3) 2 GB more RAM than V30+
4) Will receive Android 10, V30+ limited to Android 9.
Personally after using both V30+ & G7+, I always tend to go for V30+ for gaming. It has a more wider display and hence the characters in the game becomes bigger, more prominent & immersive. The yesteryear flagship Snapdragon 835 SoC in V30+ can still beat any mid-range processor be it Mediatek Helios G90T in Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro or Snapdragon 730G of Realme X2. The G7+ has the Snapdragon 845, but the display is too thin in my liking and hence experience is not so good in gaming.
Android 10's most favorite feature, the system wide dark mode also be easily enabled on V30+ using system settings, making the V30+ a easy choice for me.
