Comparison review
The Sony Xperia Z4v is just a bit better than the LG V20, getting a overall score of 78.8 against 77. Although Sony Xperia Z4v is older and thicker than LG V20, it's body is still a little lighter. The Xperia Z4v counts with a much better screen than LG V20, because although it has a little bit smaller display, and they both have the same exact resolution of 2560 x 1440, the Xperia Z4v also counts with a quite greater screen density.
The LG V20 features a much better storage capacity for applications, games, photos and videos than Xperia Z4v, because it has 64 GB internal storage capacity and a slot for an external memory card that allows a maximum of 1,95 TB. Xperia Z4v has a bit faster processing unit than LG V20, because although it has lesser RAM, it also counts with 4 more processing cores (but slower) and an extra graphics processor.
Sony Xperia Z4v has a slightly better camera than LG V20, because although it has a tinier diafragm aperture which is not nice for low light photos and videos, and they both have the same video frame rates and the same video resolution, the Sony Xperia Z4v also counts with a back-facing camera with lot more mega pixels and a larger sensor shooting better quality photographs and videos.
LG V20 features a bit better battery duration than Xperia Z4v, because it has a 7% larger battery capacity.
Although Xperia Z4v is a better device, it costs a lot more than LG V20, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as the LG V20. If you are trying to save some money, you can get LG V20, giving up a couple features and specs, but you will get the most out of your money.
