The Sony Xperia XZ1's camera is just as good as the camera in HTC 10, because although the Sony Xperia XZ1 has lower video frame rate and a tinier aperture which is worse for capturing pictures or video in low light situations, and they both have the same 3840x2160 (4K) video definition and a same size sensor, it also counts with a way more mega pixels back facing camera.
Although Sony Xperia XZ1 is a better device, it costs a lot more money than HTC 10, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as HTC 10. If you want to save some money, you can buy the HTC 10, giving up a couple features, but you will get the most out of your savings.
