A US-based consumer reports has recently made an unexpected revelation. According to the report LG G4 is superior to both the Samsung Galaxy S6/S6 edge and the iPhone 6. However, this is still unpredictable which device will take the trophy home at the end.

Consumer Report reveals S5 tops S6, S6 edge, G4 and iPhone 6

The fifth spot in the report has been a tie among four smartphones namely Samsung Galaxy S6, S6 edge, the iPhone 6 and the Galaxy S5 Sport. The LG G4 is at the second place sharing podium with its predecessor LG G3.

Well, Consumer Reports punished the Galaxy S6/S6 edge for the non-removable battery and non-expandable storage. The battery life was rated lower than the S5 and LG G4 and G3. Also dropping the water-resistance earned the S6 flagship a penalty. The Galaxy S6 Active addresses some of those concerns.

We’re not 100% clear how the LG G4 is not placed above the G3, we need a subscription to Consumer Reports to find out. But interestingly, the G4 is earning clear improvements and the unexcited market reception of the Galaxy S5 points to it not being most admired Samsung device in recent years.
