Comparison review
Samsung Galaxy Note3 is slightly better than Asus ZenFone 4, having a general score of 77.7 against 74.2. Both of these phones use Android OS, but the Samsung Galaxy Note3 has older 4.4.2 version while Asus ZenFone 4 has Android 8.0 Oreo. Even being the best in this review, the Samsung Galaxy Note3 body is a lot older, just a little bit heavier and just a little bit thicker than Asus ZenFone 4.
The Asus ZenFone 4 has a little faster processing unit than Samsung Galaxy Note3, because it has a greater number of cores (although slower) and more RAM. Asus ZenFone 4 features a little more vivid screen than Samsung Galaxy Note3, because although it has a little bit smaller display, and they both have exactly the same 1080 x 1920 pixels resolution, the Asus ZenFone 4 also counts with a little more pixels per inch of screen.
Asus ZenFone 4 has a much greater memory capacity for applications and games than Galaxy Note3, and although they both have exactly the same internal memory, the Asus ZenFone 4 also has a slot for SD memory cards that holds a maximum of 1,95 TB. The Asus ZenFone 4 features a bit better battery duration than Galaxy Note3, because it has a 3% greater battery size.
Galaxy Note3 features a camera that is just as good as the Asus ZenFone 4 one, because although the Galaxy Note3 has a tinier sensor capturing less light and duller colors and a smaller aperture which is not nice for capturing photographs and video in low light situations, and they both have the same 30 frames per second video frame rates and the same (4K) video resolution, it also counts with a higher resolution back facing camera.
