Huawei Mate X features a way bigger memory capacity to install games and applications than Moto Z3, because although it has no slot for SD memory cards, it also counts with more internal storage capacity.

The Motorola Moto Z3 shoots clearer photographs and videos than Huawei Mate X, although it has a smaller diafragm aperture which is worse for taking photos or video in low light environments, a lot less mega-pixels back facing camera and a way tinier camera sensor shooting much worse quality pictures.
