Comparison review
IPhone 7 has a score of 81.6, which is just a bit better than Moto Z3's overall score of 77.6. The iPhone 7 is an older and just a bit thicker phone than the Moto Z3, but Apple managed to make it somewhat lighter anyway. Moto Z3 and iPhone 7 have really similar screens, although the Moto Z3 also has a bigger screen, a lot better 1080 x 2160 resolution and a bit more pixels per inch of screen.
Motorola Moto Z3 counts with a quite bigger memory for games and applications than iPhone 7, because although it has less internal memory, it also counts with a SD extension slot that allows up to 1,95 TB. Motorola Moto Z3 has just a bit better performance than Apple iPhone 7, because it has more RAM memory and a larger number of cores (and faster).
Motorola Moto Z3 features a much better battery duration than iPhone 7, because it has 3000mAh of battery capacity. The Apple iPhone 7 takes just a bit better videos and photos than Moto Z3, because although it has a smaller back-facing camera sensor taking worse quality pictures and videos, and they both have the same 3840x2160 video definition, the same resolution camera in the back and the same video frame rate, the Apple iPhone 7 also counts with a larger diafragm aperture.
Although iPhone 7 is a better device, it is a lot more expensive than Moto Z3, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as Moto Z3. If you prefer to save a few dollars, you can get Moto Z3, giving up a couple features, but you'll get the most with your money.
