- The Huawei G8 and LG G Vista 2 both feature a 1080 x 1920 pixel IPS LCD display, but the G8 has a slightly smaller 5.5-inch screen compared to the 5.7-inch display of the G Vista 2, resulting in a higher pixel density for the G8.
- In terms of performance, the G8 is powered by the Snapdragon 615 chipset, while the G Vista 2 uses the Snapdragon 617, which offers marginally improved efficiency.
- Both devices have a 13 MP rear camera with OIS and can record 1080p video, but their software experience differs slightly, with the G8 running EMUI 3.1 based on Android 5.1 and upgradable to 6.0, while the G Vista 2 remains on Android 5.1.
