G6's wide angle shot is just Awesome.
Tried u11 for 3 days.. beast!
Great review and production! Packed a lot of quality comparison shots in those 5 minutes. Wish more reviewers knew how to do this.
I'm glad I came across your review! I like your style. Keep up the great work! Although I still prefer the HTC's images and wanted the HTC to win your comparison, I still liked how you presented everything and liked that the G6 is getting some well-deserved love. Thanks!
Thanks man!
Naldy Diaz I agree, I'm not a professional, yet it must be true that we all see things just a little different. I like the LG camera, but in most images I didn't even see it close. I thought the HTC U11 had a much more pleasing image in comparison to the G6. Instantly you can see how much nicer the photo was with the U11. Wow, super impressed with the U11 camera. I have the U11 and now the Note8, and in many pictures I take, my U11 produces a more pleasing photo than my Note8 as well.
This is the best Camera comparison series on UA-cam. Adam did a great job in explaining the photos. How about Lg G6 vs Iphone 7?
And to your friends every time you take a picture you can say, "like a G6.."
You made me happy. :') Time to listen to 'Like a G6'.
thank you.
I love your methodology for testing... This has more science and less bias... I hail this the best camera testing show on youtube period.
Nice review! I still went for the U11 though, it's a beast 💪
I know it is a bit of a cop out but I'm thinking that it is so close that it really doesn't matter. They are both fabulous. I'm loving what HTC have done with this phone. It's my phone off the year so far.
Chris Jones when you have one of the top 3 cameras out there its hard to split hairs. You'll be happy with any of them!
I am literally blown away on how far phones have come in terms of their cameras. I would consider myself an amateur photographer, using my Nikon D5300 and lenses for astrophotography, Milkyway time lapses etc. I was shocked when I realised I could do long exposures with my LG G6. Whenever I get a clear night, I'm setting that ISO to 3200 and doing a 30-second shot to see just how powerful this little sensor is. The LG G6 is an amazing phone, probably one of the best I've ever had. It's a shame that it's considered the underdog since Samsung brought out the S8. An underrated phone which many will pass on, which is such a shame.
No way. I've only been using the U11 for 2 days, but it beats my G6 hands down in most pics!
noname wait for the OnePlus 5 if u want a cheaper phone (suppose to have a nice camera also), but if you don't mind paying an extra $100-$150 I would get that U 11 now.
Strange, my friend has the U11 and he thinks the G6 takes better pictures :O, weird eh.
Yeah, I totally agree with you. I had the LG G3 and I loved it. I got the Samsung galaxy s6 and it was a great phone with great camera, but LG was still my favourite. I then picked up an iPhone6s which is good, and it does what most can do, but lacks in the camera department. When I had the chance to upgrade recently I was thinking about either S8 or G6, and I remember my G3 and went, "yup, LG it is".
It's a shame too because they're so underrated. I think if LG were to use screens like the Galaxy range they would defo outsell the Galaxy. but to be honest with you, the screen on the LG G6 is gorgeous and true with realistic colors. I even watch Netflix Dolby Vision HDR on it which looks amazing. People go for products like the iPhone or Galaxy year after year because it's the popular choice. But some people don't realise what they're missing if they just took their head out their asses for a second and looked at what else is there.
noname i was gonna go for the oneplus 5 but it's value has gone to shit with not many new features and a much higher price i would go for the u 11
haha in your dreams only htc is better
LG provides the most comprehensive camera experience for those who wanna put in the work. All that flexibility of the manual modes and wide angle cameras make it so much fun to use! I totally agree that the Google Pixel, iPhone 7, Samsung S8 and this HTC U11 definately beat it in auto mode and just snapping the best photos quickly. But I've got a soft spot for LG phones, and with features, looks and an easy pricetag to match it's a great phone for a lot of people.

Good review. It's to the point that personal preference is what drives people to purchase their phone. the images are soooo similar in auto modes.
bplayjr exactly!
HTC nailed it this year. Kudos to HTC. 👊👊👍👍
Your reviews are great and to the point. I beg to differ on low light performance however. My lg g6 is horrible in low light. Pixelated and grainy. In auto mode.
Wife loves the camera interface so I agree here. Coming from note 5 previously.
The sun is a problem as described. So I agree there.
Color reproduction is awesome, but only have note 5 to compare side by side.
Love the option of the two cameras. I use it constantly.
john doe ah, manual mode.
You have to utilize the manual mode, which will guarantee you a sharp, crispy & bright photo. Just stick to ISO 50 and pay around with the shutter speed.
I realy like your reviews, they are awesome! Great job, very interesting video!
So, I need to ask you for advice - LG G6 or Galaxy S7 (regular, not edge)? Which one should I buy considering that my priorities are camera (photos in auto mode, like in your video) and battery life? In my country they are in the same price range (about 400 Euros) and S8 and U11 are about 600-650E so I dont compare them even though they are all 2017 flagships
One more question, how did you get those scratches on camera lens? I have been reading a lot lately about this problem on G6 and this could be a deal breaker if they show up frequently on regular use, without any drops or something similar
Thanks Adam
i got a golden g6 ... about scratches as long as you dont have sand in your pockets the glass should be fine
use a cover so to give the camera lens space not to touch surfaces like tables made out of rocks.. granite etc... 1 month usage still not a scratch
really like LG phones but htc really hit the home run this year. Right after is the LG G6
Put the LG g6 against the xperia xz premium next. I suggest adding the selfie cam test to your comparisons aswell, selfie cams are just as important to many as much as the rear cams on smartphones. Keep up the great reviews.
Another review that is biased due to dxomark. Mentioning dxomark without explaining the meaning of the score and without reporting about Dxo's conflict of interest is very concerning and makes the reviewer unreliable no matter whether LG or HTC win in this comparison.
it might be a 2 year old mobile, but what about Lumia 950? do you have a review? thanks! and good job...
I want you to fight lg g6 with Iphone 7 plus < dual cam > championship hahahaha
I have the G6 but I think HTC 11 camera is slightly better...I still would choose G6 camera though for the dual camera.
Where does the myth that HTC has a legacy for great cameras come from? The camera has consistently been the biggest thing holding HTC back from making great phones, especially when they started with the "ultrapixel"-gimmick. The Pixel was literally the very first HTC built phone that had a camera that could compete with the very best on the market. The U11 is the first HTC branded phone to have a great camera. All others have sucked since the HTC Legend.
Plz sir go for Lumia camera 950 1020 n 1520 i am waiting. For a long time to compare with Lumia camera...
I think they are both about even. Don't think you could go wrong with either camera. But the G6 is ip68,has a headphone jack and wireless charging plus the wide angle lens so I would go G6. Great review
Own both. The U11 cam owns the lg as far as an actual realistic picture is concerned. The lg takes fine photos. They just aren't realistic at all. The grass is way to green, the sky way to blue. U11 is accurate AF. Not even taking into account the speed differences. The only thing the g6 had going for it was the wide-angle cam.
Hi, can you explain the "low" score that G6 received from Dxomark? Thanks!
I bought the LG G6 because of your magazine! I'm sorry; after several tests my Oneplus 5 is WIDELY better in picture of this poor LG G6 that I just sold to buy the HTC U11+.
How much are you paying LG for fake tests ??
Maybe test G6 against Iphone 7? I mean I know its older phone but just I am curious how did apple make the camera.
gr8 videos. my respect mate
Still liking this video. Watching this video on my U11. It was really a close fight. We'll the score was 2 each. But he had to decide on personal preference. It's okay he chose the G6. He likes the phone. We can't argue on that. But the fight was so close... So im still happy with my U11. The only good thing I enjoyed on my G4 was the manual mode camera settings. That was really good. I had awesome photos on my G4 until it crashed and bootlooped. #niceLG
Mark 'Coy' Simon Quilantang I'm writing from a lg g4 and I'm still looking for a smartphone that will replace it as soon as possible. What is the problem with the htc u11 manual function? LG manual shot mode is very very good. My doubt is between Lg g6, Htc u11, Oneplus 5 (we wait)
yeah lg g6👍👍....next challenger xz premium😀
Do a camera comparison in between LG G6 vs Google pixel 2 XL. Thankyou!
0:43 scratch is real
I have LG G4 but still it can compete with any other flagship......Happy with LG
I'd like the OnePlus 5 since I just bought one so I could gauge how much of a good or bad choice I made, camera-wise, but that's a bit biased. I think it'd be cool to put it up against its own big brother the V30 and see how much of a difference there is if there is some.
I don't quite understand the video. The reviewer scored HTC higher than LG G6 in most of the tests, but chose LG G6 in the end regardless of the test scores...
His conclusion nullified and contradicted all of the tests he did...
Need one against iPhone 7 plus, Oneplus 5, Xiaomi Mi6, Xperia XZ Premium. I think you should make low light scenarios a different 2 points category because it's where a phone's camera hardware and software are hard tested.
lg g6 vs lg v20...
and please add video tests
Those are some horrific looking scratches on your G6! - all over the camera lenses 😱
Jake Tennant I use it a ton!
Don't they effect the camera itself?
Iphone 7 plus or iphone 7 or sony xz premuim
Coming from HTC 10 to LG G6. I have noticed right away that HTC 10 take better pictures specially the front facing cam or selfie pics.. So hiw much more with HTC U11.which i wish to have but still so expensive.
" HTC has a history of great cameras" I am in a way HTC fan but HTC before U11 never had great camera. How do you read histogram when you say LG6 better handles in low light if histogram and evidence in th shadows says otherwise, yes U11 has wider separation in the shadow and detail present. " Boring photo" 3:20 what does that even mean? HTC in this shot represents reality, the way it is because G6 oversharpens, adds unnatural contrast and oversaturates images. Maybe start reviewing sweet shop there is lots of saturated colour to cling on Mr Clarity.
Was waiting for this video 😒🙄
Please compare LG G6 and Oneplus 5 Camera
I have both the G6 and S8+ and the S8 Cameras simoly kill the G6 to my sadness. I wonder how you managed to get such good photos with the G6. I have always been an LG fan and I buy all their now models but the S7 and S8 have really good Cameras with the S8 being a real beast.
I do not agree with the review. In many other reviews, the camera u11 is better than Lg g6, but slightly worse than the Samsung s8. The comparison of the cameras was also under different lighting conditions. I think u11 won.
Wow at last a review that LG G6 is a great choice
best camera comparison i hv ever seen
Just because of ur review i bought a lg g6... Ur ryt is good fun to use
im still going with the htc u11
No headphone jack? Stupid.
hoota ragis it has a epic dac though
I prefer the U11 photos but the size of the phone is too big and the flexible frame makes it a little bit more fragile.
U11 r better in Highlights but Lowlight looks G6 better and also the detail of G6 picture r better...both r very good..btw G6 also have the Wide Angle ...Kudos for LG...LG Camera app r a lot of cool features...Next video please test the XZ Premium
plz camera review for lg G6 & OP 5.
G6 make much better videos (thanks to superb image stabilization), but HTC U11 have (in my opinion) better sound quality.
Also a comparison with the Honor 9 😉
Take on p10 plus. Lets see Leica's Dynamic range battle with LG
In love with my G6 ❤
Oh, and I'd love to see the G6 go against the iPhone 7 Plus!
a Smartphone is Not the Camera alone. so if One looks in mite Detail to the phones, the u11 will Win. and the winner takes it all...
I suggest the comparison of lg g6 and xz premium
please review lg g6 vs zenfone zoom s,
thanks
what about video test??????
In clarity category, on low light pics, I can't believe you pick the G6 😂 Dude you are using glasses, I'm sure you can see it too
Lg G6 vs. OnePlus 5 would be nice
Next Challenger request: LG G6 vs Sony Xperia XZ Premium
Man That Wide angle lens is Sick hahaha !!!! Lovin it with my LG
like to see a battle against the Sony XZ premium
LG G6+ vs LG V30
And remember: The LG G4 Cam beats the G6 Cam....
Honor 9 or p10 or p10 plus try dis brother
LG G6 vs Huwawei P20 please!!!!
Lg G6 sigue teniendo la mejor cámara del 2017,yo pensaba que el ganador este año sería el Xperia Xz premium o htc u11,pero me equivoqué.
saludos y gracias por el vídeo
V30 vs U11 plus?
LG G6 vs. ASUS ZenFone 3 Zoom ($329)
Sony IMX362, f/1.7, 1.4um, OIS+EIS. Looks competitive with the hardware. But software could make it or break it.
HTC was pretty good, I would say it won, but samsung is king.
Love your cam reviews but the g6 uses smaller camera sensor with heavy post processing which can lead to awfull effect on the final pics like heavy oversharpening and super heavy posterizing effects mostly noticable on human faces. Took this phone because of tiny bezels and great screen and to take photos of my kids but in every second pic they turn out like aliens with posterized cartoonish like faces. Ported google cam doesnt do that but it has its own issues as non native LG app.
Kako se pokazala GCam na ovom modelu? Jel priblizava kvalitet slike Nexusu 5x/6P ili Pixelu? Pre neki dan sam prodao svoj 5x i sad razmisljam koju zamenu da mu nadjem, G6 ili S7
My S8plus are best and sure better than G6 in photo but why you said g6 better ?
I still prefer HTC over G6.
When you look photos side by side, U11 photos are mostly better than G6, but you choose G6 as a winner. Ok.
I sure did. Which areas did you disagree with me on?
g6 photos better
I'm just a little brighter in the dark! Where did you see this enhancement in the photos of HTC U11?
Do not eat shit
You should really put it against the iPhone X
You are either liar or blind.
I had both of those phones. And I had Xiaomi mi5 before LG.
And even after Xiaomi i was disappointed with camera of LG G6+ and decided to sell it after 1 month of usage.
I didn't any noise, but there were very few details. The images were absolutely washed up. The people faces were looking like rubber dolls. That all were either in good lightning conditions like daylight outside as well as indoor. Colours looked good because of oversaturation It was completely bad camera. And then I bought htc U11, that was miles above g6 and with gcam software keeps up with Google pixels. As phone It has his disadvantages, like a weak battery, IPS screen, but even in comparison to mi9, it makes better pics.
lg g6
LG G6 has the best camera on the market to date because of the wide angle lens... dual camera is useless if they don't have wide angle lens.
Edge Mann Every smartphone has a wide angle lens. LG's second lens is called an ultra wide angle lens. Ultra wide angle is much less useful than tele. You can achieve ultra wide angle images with a panorama or with stitching the wide angle images. But you can not do this instead of a portrait lens. Moreover ultra wide angle lenses are not usable for photographing people due to perspective distortion, so this is perfect for nerds that never see people. Moreover LG's camera has a lot of distortion and a fixed focus.
It's not just for the wide-angle lens, LG G6 makes really good pictures if it's just that in the dark slightly wins HTC due to the slowness a bit brighter, but in general it wins LG G6
Edge Mann im diggin the wide angle lens..
Quoutub I understand what you mean. But me personally, I like prefer an ultra wide angle lens. I don't use telephoto enough. I really like the monochrome sensors that Huawei puts in their phones too.
Edge Mann I agree
vs oneplus 5?
S Saini we will see then
LG G6 the best ♥
compare it against one plus 5, please
lg g 6. is the best haha
G6 so unbeatable..
Can you try Asus or Sony? 😄
sony xz premium next please
waiting for the G6 with the IPhone 7plus
LG have made best camera ever...
U11is killer😉 Best Phone ever
Please change the 3rd comparison style.. Exposure .. Dont like this.. Plz..change it with other style comparison
there is no challenger for LG G6
wierd
in trems of your parameters the u11 wins 2 of 4
and the g6 wins 2 either
so why is that final result 😃😃😃
i think after all it comes to personal preference not to what actually won
any way nice review despite that final thoughts
It does all come down to personal preference yes.
Adam Patrick Murray: if it comes down to personal preference then this review is pointless and useless. as a professional reviewer it is wrong to set out to do an objective test only to end up with a personal preference. if I prefer the U11 over the G6, what should I make of this review? thrash, isn't it?
oneplus 3t vs lg g6 plz
Lg g6 best camera winner phone .
lg g6 vs htc 10 please
Sony xperia xz premium and the iphone 7 plus
OMG lg g6 better than pixel 2 are you insane? And the htc u11 has a better camera, you don't have any idea about smartphones cameras.
Next: LG G6 vs Oneplus 5
