        And the results show that even without OIS the S4 still takes higher detailed and more proper colored images. Look at the results yourself...

            [deleted post]Wrong. LCD is fake to because of greys. And Amoled has movie mode which has near perfect colors. But it still has black so way better than tiny minutely more accurate LCD.
            Plus the contrast and technology of Amoled makes up for the brightness. It does not seem as dim as it really is.
            Plus it gets even brighter in auto brightness.

              Don't rely only from this review.
              there are so many different experts' opinion too.
              MOST TECH SITE'S REVIEWS AGREED G2 HAS OVERALL BETTER DISPLAY OVER S4.

              again according to this review G2's BEATS S4 in Camera comparisons.
              also try to visit other reviews of G2's vs S4 on camera comparisons.

You don't know what is the importance of high contrast in mobile screen. Amoled display has good sunlight legibility.
                S4 audio quality is best , it has Wolfson audio chip.
                Samsung knows how to make good result from 13mp camera, pictures taken by s4 camera shows that. Lg g2 is newest , but not enough for beating s4 .

                            A true winner from LG.
                            Processor- G2 wins.
                            Camera- G2 wins.
                            Battery- G2 wins.
                            and for the people who are braggining about the processors being different. please compare the G2 even to the note 3. The G2 gives it a beating in some departments but still are evenly matched. LG has a winner here.. Samsung just has to learn to deal with defeat for once.

                                G2 beats the S4 nicely here. It's a good victory for LG.

                                The lack of an SD card slot is a downside, but the inclusion of an FM radio along with better battery is a deal breaker for me.

                                Samsung should work on the S5 and trimming down Touchwiz rather than release yet another catchup version of their flagship.
