Make me pretty: Samsung Galaxy S7 edge vs LG V20 beauty modes comparison

For the average alien, it doesn't take too long to notice that South Korea is obsessed with physical beauty. How big is this obsession, exactly? According to certain sources, the country has the highest rate of plastic surgeries per capita not only in Asia but in the whole world. 

Influenced by K-Pop, it's already a multiple billion-dollar industry showing zero signs of slowing down. This obsession has long ago penetrated other markets, including our favorite one - smartphones.

For a long time now, phones made by South Korea-based Samsung and LG as well as multiple devices originating from China have had different beautifying modes on the front-facing and sometimes even on the rear cameras. Smoothing the skin, slimming the face, correcting the shape of the face, and even enlarging the eyes of the user are just a few of the manipulations that can be applied to your face as you snap a selfie. Indeed, when have people craved for realism in their self-portraits? 

WE DON'T TAKE SELFIES TO LOOK REALISTIC, WE TAKE SELFIES TO LOOK GOOD ON SOCIAL MEDIA

Although we are not that infatuated with selfies, we still snap a few of these from time to time... for reasons! Given that Samsung and LG are among the more popular smartphone manufacturers out there, we thought it would be nice to show you a comparison between the beautifying modes between two of the best contemporary Samsung and LG devices -- the Galaxy S7 edge and the V20 -- and show you to what extent these two will make your faces a bit more appealing.

What kind of beauty modes the Galaxy S7/S7 edge and the V20 have? 

Now, it's important to notice that the Galaxy S7 edge comes with a tad more beautification features than the V20. We've got:

• Skin Tone, which airbrushes the skin and gets rid of all your blemishes, skin flaws and imperfections;
• Spotlight, which highlights certain aspects of your face
• Slim Face, which... slims your face;
• Large Eyes, which locates your eyes and ever-so-slightly increases their size;
• Shape correction, which prevents image distortions.
