Comparison review
The Xperia XZ3 is a little bit better than LG V10, having a 79.6 score against 78.6. Even though the Xperia XZ3 is a lot newer than LG V10, it's somewhat thicker and a little bit heavier. Both phones in our current comparison use Android OS (operating system), but the Xperia XZ3 has the newer 9.0 Pie version while LG V10 has Android 5.1 version, so it offers some extra features and a performance increase.
LG V10 counts with a bit sharper screen than Xperia XZ3, although it has a little lower 2560 x 1440 pixels resolution, a little smaller screen and a quite inferior quantity of pixels per inch in the display. LG V10 features a much bigger memory capacity to install applications and games or saving photos and videos than Sony Xperia XZ3, and although they both have the same internal memory, the LG V10 also has a SD extension slot that holds up to 1,95 TB.
The Xperia XZ3 counts with a quite better hardware performance than LG V10, and although they both have the same RAM memory amount, the Xperia XZ3 also has a larger number of cores (and faster). LG V10 captures just a bit better photos and videos than Sony Xperia XZ3, because although it has a smaller camera sensor capturing lower quality photographs, a less MP resolution camera and a lower 3840x2160 (4K) video resolution, it also counts with a bigger aperture to take better photos in low light environments.
Xperia XZ3 has just a little bit longer battery performance than LG V10, because it has a 3330mAh battery size against 3000mAh.
Although Sony Xperia XZ3 is a better device, it costs a lot more than LG V10, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the LG V10. If you want to save a few dollars, you can buy LG V10, letting go some specs and features, but you will get the most out of your savings.
