Basically, the LG Optimus G Pro is better than the iPhone 5 and iPhone 4S in terms of specs. But the LG device is running on Android while iPhones are running on the iOS. So the needs of Android and iOS are truly different. 

The LG Optimus G Pro has a far larger display than the iPhone 5 and iPhone 4S. The display resolution of LG Optimus G Pro is 1920 x 1080 which far sharper than the iPhone 5 and iPhone 4S. Seems like Apple needs to put more effort on its iPhone to remain competitive. 

Both A6 and A5 processors from Apple are only dual-core while Snapdragon 600 in LG Optimus G Pro is a quad-core processor. The LG Optimus G Pro has 2GB of RAM while iPhone 5 has only 1GB and iPhone 4S has only 512MB. If you are an Android or Windows Phone user, you can think that the 512MB of RAM was belong to older generation devices. 

The camera of iPhone 5 and iPhone 4S are not impressive when compared to the LG Optimus G Pro. Both iPhones only 8-megapixels while the LG Optimus G Pro has 13-megapixels. The front camera of iPhone 4S only a VGA quality camera while iPhone 5 has 1.3-megapixel. The 5.5-inch LG phablet packs with 2.1-megapixels front camera. 

The iPhone 5 and iPhone 4S are lighter and smaller in size than the LG Optimus G Pro. It remains mysterious whether Apple will continue to introduce the iPhone with size around 4-inch or larger iPhone in the future.
