LG G3 Vs Sony Xperia Z2: Verdict
Have you been reading up on the LG G3 since its release? If you did, you will know that it has arrived as probably one of the best handsets in the market this year. While devices such as the Samsung-made Galaxy S5 or the HTC One M8 are still in the market, the G3 comes as a major rival.

While not taking anything away from the Sony Xperia Z2 and all the rich specs it provides alongside it, we have to say that the G3 takes the cake with its next gen technology and a massive qHD display (let alone its laser camera). In fact, if any of these premium phones are set for big things in the long run, the G3 has more chances of hitting the bulls-eye.
