Sony Xperia Z4v counts with a battery performance that is just as good as the battery performance in Google Pixel 3a.
Xperia Z4v captures a little bit better pictures and videos than Google Pixel 3a, because although it has a smaller aperture which is not so good for low-light images, and they both have the same (4K) video resolution and the same video frame rate, the Xperia Z4v also counts with a lot more mega-pixels back-facing camera and a bigger camera sensor taking more light and vivid colors.
Even being the best phone in this comparison, the Google Pixel 3a is also a bargain compared to the other ones.
