Comparison review
The Sony Xperia XZ3 has a score of 79.6, which is a little bit better than Apple iPhone SE's 75.7 score. The Sony Xperia XZ3 is a extremely newer cellphone than the Apple iPhone SE, but it's much thicker and notably heavier. The Sony Xperia XZ3 has a more vivid display than Apple iPhone SE, because it has a quite more brightness, a really bigger display, much more pixels per display inch and a lot higher resolution of 1440 x 2880px.
Xperia XZ3 has a quite better hardware performance than iPhone SE, because it has a higher amount of RAM and a higher number of cores (and faster). Xperia XZ3 captures much clearer pictures and videos than iPhone SE, and although they both have the same 3840x2160 (4K) video quality and the same 30 fps video frame rate, the Xperia XZ3 also has a larger aperture for better photos in low light environments, a lot more mega pixels back-facing camera and a much bigger back-facing camera sensor capturing way better quality pictures and videos.
The Xperia XZ3 counts with more memory for games and applications than iPhone SE, because although it has only 64 GB internal storage capacity, it also counts with a slot for SD memory cards that admits up to 512 GB. The Xperia XZ3 has a much better battery duration than iPhone SE, because it has a 3330mAh battery capacity.
Although Xperia XZ3 is a better device, it costs a lot more than the Apple iPhone SE, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as Apple iPhone SE. If you want to save some dollars, you can get Apple iPhone SE, and give up a few features and specifications, but you will get the most with your budget.
