Motorola Moto M vs LG V20 vs Xiaomi Redmi 4 Review: Which Is The Best Budget Smartphone?
PrakashThe Motorola Moto M, the Xiaomi Redmi 4, and the LG V20 vary in price and specifications. Though, we will compare the core specifications to draw some conclusion for the one who are stuck with choosing among these three devices.
Starting with the design and display, the LG V20 comes with bigger display of 5.7" with resolution of 1440x2560, while the Redmi 4 have smaller 5.0" touch screen and the Moto M have 5.5" capacitive touchscreen with similar resolution.
Though we can easily distinguish between the quality as the Moto M comes with Super AMOLED capacitive screen. On the other hand, the LG V20 and the Redmi 4 have IPS LCD display with Gorilla Glass 4 protection on the V20 and an unspecified version of the same on the Redmi 4.
In terms of performance, the LG V20 have faster quad-core Snapdragon 820 followed by the Moto M's octa-core Helio P15 processor and then octa-core Snapdragon 430 processor of the Redmi 4.
The clocking speed of the V20, the Moto M and the Redmi 4 are 2.15GHz, 2.2GHz and 1.4GHz respectively.
We don't need to shred extra money for more storage in these three phones which come with microSD slot up to 256 GB.
The LG V20 (32GB/64GB storage) and the Moto M (32 GB storage) have 4GB RAM while, the Redmi 4 have only 2GB RAM and 16GB internal storage space.
In terms of battery, the Redmi 4 theoretically has a bigger battery with 4000 mAH than the LG V20's 3200 mAH battery and Moto M's 3050 mAH battery with faster battery charging option in all.
The photography round has a few ups and downs. The Moto M features a 16 MP (1080p) rear camera with LED flash and a 8MP front snapper.
Contrastingly, the LG V20 has a dual 16 MP + 8MP rear camera with LED flash and a 5MP secondary camera. Unlikely, the Redmi 4 shines with only 13 MP primary and 5MP secondary camera. Additionally, the trio has got the fingerprint sensors on them.
While the software on LG V20 runs on Android 7.0 Nougat, it has a secondary 2.1-inch display for notifications. The Moto M and the Redmi Note 4 comes with Android 6.0.
Summing up, the LG V20 is overall the best phone except in battery capacity where the Redmi 4 takes the lead. However, the V20 is the priciest among all. In terms of budget at workable specs, the Moto M can be the real winner.
