Christian Post Report – LG and Samsung have both come out with new devices this year as Samsung has recently unveiled its latest flagship phone, the Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge, while LG has launched its most innovative device to date, the G Flex 2. However, older devices from both companies are still getting a lot of interest due to their superb specs, as well as their marked decrease in price.
The Galaxy S5 continues to perform well in the market, given that it was only released a year ago, while the LG G2 continues to be a reliable device which gives users the pure Android experience.

The Samsung phone is also slightly bigger and heavier than the LG device, as the Galaxy S5 measures 5.59 x 2.85 x 0.32 inches and weighs 5.11 ounces, while the G2 weighs 5.45 x 2.79 x 0.35 inches and weighs 5.04 ounces.
