Las year LG stole the show with QHD display and this time around LG has stick with the same QHD display but as per the company the overall brightness and sharpness has been improved.

Hardware:

Galaxy  S6 comes with homegrown Exynos 7 Octa 7420 which performs slightly better than Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 of LG G4. We ran different benchmark tests and found out that Galaxy  S6 was ahead of G4 in most of the tests. However, both these smartphones have 3GB RAM and this makes multitasking flawlessly smooth. You will certainly enjoy multitasking on these smartphones.

Galaxy S6 has 128GB internal storage whereas LG G4 has 32GB internal storage. Lack of microSD card on S6 disappoints us but 128GB is still more than enough even for hardcore media lovers. So, looking at the benchmark results it was evident that S6 is superior than G4 in hardware.

Software:

These smartphones run Android 5.0 Lollipop out of the box with their customized UI. Even though Samsung has improved Touchwiz over the years but still it does not feel as polished as other UI available in the market. LG G4 with its latest LG UX 4.0 steals the show comprehensively.

Battery:

We have heard a lot of complaints about low battery performance of LG G4 and our tests depicted the same thing. Even though G4 comes with higher battery capacity but still S6 performed much better in our battery tests and it was quite easy for us to declare S6 as winner in our LG G4 vs Galaxy S6 battery life showdown.
