Comparison review
The Galaxy S5 has an overall score of 80.8, which is better than the Moto G6's 72.1 global score. Galaxy S5 is an extremely older cellphone than the Moto G6, but Samsung managed to build it somewhat lighter and a little thinner anyway. The Galaxy S5 features a much better looking screen than Motorola Moto G6, because although it has a little bit smaller display and a bit worse 1920 x 1080 resolution, it also counts with more pixels per inch in the screen.
Galaxy S5's storage for apps and games is very similar to the Moto G6 one, both have an external memory card slot that allows a maximum of 128 GB and equal 32 GB internal memory. The Galaxy S5 counts with just a little better performance than Motorola Moto G6, because although it has an inferior number of cores (but faster), and they both have 3 GB of RAM, the Galaxy S5 also counts with an extra GPU.
The Galaxy S5 features just a bit better camera than Moto G6, because although it has a smaller diafragm aperture and a tinier camera sensor capturing less light and washed colors, and they both have the same (4K) video resolution and the same video frame rates, the Galaxy S5 also counts with a camera with a way better 16 megapixels resolution.
The Motorola Moto G6 has a bit superior battery duration than Samsung Galaxy S5, because it has 3000mAh of battery capacity against 2800mAh.
Although Galaxy S5 is a better device, it is a lot more expensive than the Motorola Moto G6, and it doesn't have such a good price and quality relation as the Motorola Moto G6. So if you want that extra specs, you can buy Galaxy S5, else you can save some money and buy the Motorola Moto G6, giving up a couple features and specifications.
