The HTC U Ultra has a general score of 77, which is a bit better than the Motorola Moto G5S Plus's global score of 74.8. HTC U Ultra's construction is a bit heavier but thinner than the Motorola Moto G5S Plus, and both were released with only a couple of months difference. HTC U Ultra has a little sharper screen than Motorola Moto G5S Plus, because it has a little larger display, a higher resolution of 1440 x 2560 pixels and a higher pixels count in each inch of display.
HTC U Ultra has a much bigger memory to install games and applications than Motorola Moto G5S Plus, and although they both have the same internal memory, the HTC U Ultra also has an external SD slot that holds up to 1,95 TB. Moto G5S Plus features a bit better processor than HTC U Ultra, and although they both have a 4 GB RAM, the Moto G5S Plus also has 4 more cores.
The HTC U Ultra has a battery life that is just as good as Motorola Moto G5S Plus's battery performance. The HTC U Ultra captures a bit better photos and videos than Motorola Moto G5S Plus, because although it has a lower (4K) video quality and a lesser mega-pixels back-facing camera, it also counts with a larger diafragm aperture to take better low light images.
Although HTC U Ultra is a better device, it costs a lot more than the Motorola Moto G5S Plus, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as Motorola Moto G5S Plus. So if you need that extra features and specs, you can buy the HTC U Ultra, otherwise you can save a couple dollars and get the Motorola Moto G5S Plus, letting go a couple specifications.
