The Galaxy Note 5 is slightly better than Motorola Moto G6, having a 79.3 score against 72.1. Galaxy Note 5 is a older and just a little bit heavier phone than the Motorola Moto G6, but Samsung managed to build it just a little bit thinner anyway. Galaxy Note 5 counts with a sharper screen than Moto G6, and although they both have a screen with the same size, the Galaxy Note 5 also has a better 2560 x 1440 resolution and a just a bit greater amount of pixels per inch of display.
Moto G6 counts with a little bit better storage for games and applications than Samsung Galaxy Note 5, because although it has just 32 GB internal memory capacity, it also counts with a slot for SD memory cards that supports up to 128 GB. Moto G6 counts with just a bit better hardware performance than Samsung Galaxy Note 5, because although it has a lower amount of RAM memory, it also counts with 7 more CPU cores (although they are slower).
The Galaxy Note 5 has a battery performance that's very similar to Motorola Moto G6's battery lifetime. Galaxy Note 5 has a slightly better camera than Moto G6, because although it has a smaller sensor capturing less light and washed colors and a smaller aperture, and they both have the same 3840x2160 video quality and the same 30 fps video frame rate, the Galaxy Note 5 also counts with a back camera with lot more megapixels.
Although Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is a better device, it costs a lot more than Motorola Moto G6, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as Motorola Moto G6. So if you want that extra specs, you can buy Samsung Galaxy Note 5, but if you don't you can save a couple dollars and buy the Motorola Moto G6, resigning a couple specifications.
