Comparison review
IPhone 7 is slightly better than Moto X4, having a overall score of 81.6 against 74.4. The iPhone 7 body is just a little bit thinner and somewhat lighter than the Moto X4, despite of the fact that it was released just 13 months before. The iPhone 7's processing unit is very similar to the processor in Moto X4, although the iPhone 7 has a lower number of cores (although faster) and less RAM.
The Motorola Moto X4 features a slightly better looking screen than iPhone 7, because it has a way higher resolution of 1080 x 1920px, a higher screen pixels density and a little bit bigger display. Motorola Moto X4 has a bit better camera than iPhone 7, because although it has a smaller aperture which is not nice for taking images and video in low light environments, and they both have a 12 mega-pixels back-facing camera, the same 30 fps video frame rates and the same video resolution, the Motorola Moto X4 also counts with a bigger camera sensor which provides a higher photo and video quality.
IPhone 7 has a slightly bigger storage to store more games and applications than Moto X4, because although it has no slot for an SD memory card, it also counts with 256 GB internal memory capacity. The Moto X4 counts with a very superior battery duration than iPhone 7, because it has 3000mAh of battery capacity against 1960mAh.
Although iPhone 7 is a better device, it costs a lot more money than the Moto X4, and it doesn't have such a good price and quality relation as the Moto X4. If you want to save some dollars, you can buy Moto X4, letting go a couple features and specs, but you will get the most out of your money.
