The Samsung Galaxy S7 Active construction is much older, just a bit heavier and a lot thicker than the Moto G7. Samsung Galaxy S7 Active counts with a brighter screen than Moto G7, because although it has a little bit smaller screen, it also counts with a better pixels quantity per inch in the screen and a better resolution of 1440 x 2560 pixels.
Galaxy S7 Active's CPU is just as good as the Motorola Moto G7 one, and although the Galaxy S7 Active has an inferior number of cores (although they are faster), they both have the same RAM amount. Samsung Galaxy S7 Active's camera is just as good as the camera in Motorola Moto G7, and although the Samsung Galaxy S7 Active has a larger aperture for better low light images, they both have the same video resolution, the same 30 frames per second video frame rates and a same resolution camera in the back.
Motorola Moto G7 features a very superior memory capacity to store more games and applications than Galaxy S7 Active, because it has a slot for an SD memory card that allows up to 512 GB and more internal memory.

If you prefer to save a few dollars, you can get the Motorola Moto G7, and give up a couple features, but you will get the most out of your money.
