Here are the advantages of each smartphone.

ASUS Zenfone 4 Selfie

+ Larger internal storage

+ Larger RAM

+ Higher rear camera resolution

+ Dual front cameras

+ Higher front camera resolution

+ Longer battery life

+ Slightly higher benchmark scores

LG Q6

+ 18:9 screen aspect ratio

+ FullVision display with 2160 x 1080 resolution

+ Lesser bezels

+ Faster LTE speed support

+ Android 7.1.1 out of the box

In terms of display, LG Q6 evidently wins since it has an 18:9 aspect ratio with fewer bezels and a 2160 x 1080 resolution which is good for users who likes to watch videos and play games. The Zenfone 4 Selfie only has 1280 x 720 resolution which is significantly lower than the Q6.

As for the memory, the Zenfone 4 Selfie gives a larger internal storage and memory compared with the Q6, however, they will be at par if the Q6 Plus is being compared. (Note: We are comparing the Q6 instead of Q6+ because we have a review for this unit).

In terms of overall performance, both smartphones are practically the same since they both possess the almost same chipset architecture. The main difference between the Snapdragon 430 and 435 is its LTE speed support in which the latter is equipped with. Checking their benchmark scores, we can see that there is only little difference between them since they carry the same GPU as well. Zenfone 4 Selfie is a bit better performing than the Q6 but it’s not that much evident in real-world usage.

Camera-wise, the Zenfone 4 Selfie boasts its front camera since this is the selling point of the smartphone. It has a 20MP + 8MP dual front camera which is good for taking selfie or “wefie” photos. Its camera also has its “Selfie Master” app feature where users can customize different modes when shooting photos. You can check out our review and sample photos/video for the Zenfone 4 Selfie here. As for the Q6, it has a 13MP rear camera with a 5MP wide-angle lens which provides decent photos. You can check out sample photos and video here.

For the battery life performance, it seems that even though both smartphones carry the same 3,000mAh battery, the Zenfone 4 Selfie wins on this department for having a 12 Hours and 30 Minutes battery life. The Q6 falls short with its 9 Hours and 30 minutes battery life.

The ASUS Zenfone 4 Selfie is priced at Php13,995 SRP (available on ASUS concept stores and retailers nationwide) while the LG Q6 is priced at Php12,990 (see price listing here)
