In the beginning of 2017, the Samsung Galaxy S8 and LG G6 were the leading flagships. Though in the first half, S8 clearly won. With a far superior design, better hardware and marketing it has been selling like hot cakes in almost every market. Even though the G6 is a mighty device, it couldn’t make up. Now coming to the second half of 2017, things have become even more interesting.

Samsung went through a serious Note 7 debacle last year and aims to re-establish it’s Note lineup. But LG too has upped it’s game with the V30. When the V series was started, it was intended to be a true productivity machine and hence didn’t concentrate much on design and aesthetics. For the first time, LG has churned out an amazingly well built and powered V series device intending to take on the Note8. While the two are still not available in market for purchase, they shall soon be available for pre-order and start shipping by mid – September.

So coming back to the main question,
