Apple iPhone 5s vs. LG G2 vs. Nokia Lumia 1020: War of the worlds

8 October 2013
You know what they say – three is a crowd. On a second thought though, no one here’s got romance on their mind. The three-horse race has had its highs and lows, but it’s the playoffs and we got a front-row seat. Each phone here will look...

      All in all the LG G2 comes out as an allrounder. A great chipset.very good camera and besides its on our beloved android. What else? As of now, the LG G2 is the best phone one can get(apart from note 3 since its a phablet).

      And whatta fantastic review guys. HAts off! Thanks GSMA.

            I think if you save only 5 Mpx image on Lumia 1020, shot-to-shot time would be much shorter

                darknite, 08 Oct 2013Excellent review...unbiased reporting...keep it up Author &... moreThough a point should be made. Until someone puts Android on an iPhone 5S and then runs Linpack for ANDROID, and not iOS, we won't know how good their 64-bit processor is. Apple optimise their phones heavily for web browsing, though the iPhone 5 was very good already, their GPUs have to run fewer pixels (all tests were on-screen), and in all-round benchmarks, iOS has better RAM performance, and the phone itself doesn't offer more power. And the iPhone 5S is far too expensive.

                    Pretty decent unbiased comparison , I adore the G2 for it's cool bezel-less desgin , but really the Z1 should have competed here along with the G2.

                      Excellent review...unbiased reporting...keep it up Author & GSMARENA.

                              There's only one thing I didn't like on the closure of this comparison. The Lumia 1020 has a lacking screen resolution. But the iPhone 5S is even worse. The ppi BS doesn't help the fact it packs a sub HD screen that puts black bars on industry standard videos. Not only the size, but the resolution, are shameful in the iPhone's case.

                              Excellent work GSMArena, as always!

                                iPhone doesn't leave snapdragon 800 in doubt guys... iPhone has only 727040 pixels to manage, in comparison to 2073600 pixels (!!!).
                                Honestly, benchmark score should be scalled down duo to this little resolution...
