Carphone Warehouse says that both phones look good from a design perspective, although there are some pluses and minuses with each phone’s build. The G5, for example has a removable battery that the Galaxy S7 lacks, while the Galaxy S7 is much more water resistant than the G5. Both devices also have terrific cameras as well, although it looks like Samsung’s does a slightly better job with overall color accuracy. Carphone Warehouse also says that both phones deliver comparable battery life and have demonstrated improved power management capabilities.
