Comparison review
The iPhone XS Max has a general score of 84.5, which is slightly better than Xperia Z4v's global score of 78.8. IPhone XS Max's construction is notably newer and somewhat thinner, but also incredibly heavier than the Xperia Z4v. The Xperia Z4v counts with just a bit better looking display than iPhone XS Max, because although it has a much smaller screen, it also counts with a bit higher resolution of 2560 x 1440px and a bit more pixels per inch of screen.
The iPhone XS Max has a bit faster processing unit than Xperia Z4v, because although it has doesn't have an additional graphics processor and an inferior number of cores (but faster), it also counts with a larger amount of RAM and a 64-bits CPU. Xperia Z4v features a little bit better storage capacity for games and applications than Apple iPhone XS Max, because although it has only 32 GB internal memory, it also counts with a SD extension slot that holds up to 128 GB.
The Xperia Z4v captures slightly better videos and photos than iPhone XS Max, because although it has worse 30 fps video frame rates and a smaller aperture which is not favorable for shooting pictures or video in low-light situations, and they both have the same 3840x2160 video definition, the Xperia Z4v also counts with a bigger sensor capturing more light and vivid colors and a much more mega pixels back camera.
The Apple iPhone XS Max counts with a little longer battery lifetime than Sony Xperia Z4v, because it has a 6 percent bigger battery size.
Although iPhone XS Max is a better device, it costs a lot more money than Xperia Z4v, and it doesn't have such a good price and quality relation as the Xperia Z4v. So if you want that extra features, you can buy the iPhone XS Max, but if you don't you can save some dollars and buy the Xperia Z4v, letting go a couple features and specs.
