Comparison review
Xperia XZ3 has a general score of 79.6, which is just a bit better than the Google Pixel 6a's overall score of 76.4. Both of these phones have Android OS (operating system), but Xperia XZ3 has 9.0 Pie version and Google Pixel 6a has Android 12 version, so it gives you some nice extra features. Xperia XZ3 is a incredibly older, just a little heavier and somewhat thicker cellphone than Google Pixel 6a.
The Xperia XZ3 features a sharper screen than Google Pixel 6a, because although it has a little bit smaller display, it also counts with a just a little better pixels count in each inch of display and a higher resolution of 1440 x 2880. Sony Xperia XZ3 counts with a much better performing CPU than Google Pixel 6a, because although it has a smaller amount of RAM memory, it also counts with a higher number of faster cores.
The Xperia XZ3 features more storage to install games and applications than Google Pixel 6a, because although it has just 64 GB internal storage capacity, it also counts with a SD card slot that holds up to 512 GB. The Xperia XZ3 has just a bit better camera than Google Pixel 6a, because although it has a tinier aperture which is not so good for low-light captures and video and worse 30 frames per second video frame rate, and they both have the same 3840x2160 video resolution, the Xperia XZ3 also counts with a camera in the back with much more mega pixels.
The Google Pixel 6a has greater battery lifetime than Xperia XZ3, because it has a 4410mAh battery capacity instead of 3330mAh.
Although Xperia XZ3 is a better device, it costs a lot more money than the Google Pixel 6a, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as the Google Pixel 6a. So if you want that extra features, you can buy Xperia XZ3, but if you don't you can save some dollars and get the Google Pixel 6a, resigning some features and specifications.
