The Galaxy S7 edge is a bit better than Moto Z Force, with a 78.1 score against 75.8. Both phones we are comparing here use Android operating system, but the Galaxy S7 edge has the newer 8.0 Oreo version while Moto Z Force has Android 7.0 Nougat. Galaxy S7 edge's design is just a little lighter but a little thicker than the Moto Z Force, and both were released with only 6 months difference.
The Galaxy S7 edge and Moto Z Force feature quite similar displays, both of them have a screen of the same size, the same resolution of 1440 x 2560px and the same screen density. The Moto Z Force features a much greater storage capacity to install applications and games or saving photos and videos than Samsung Galaxy S7 edge, because it has more internal storage and a SD memory card expansion slot that admits a maximum of 1,95 TB.
Samsung Galaxy S7 edge and Moto Z Force feature really similar processors, both of them have 4 GB of RAM and 4 CPU cores. The Galaxy S7 edge has a bit longer battery duration than Moto Z Force, because it has 3600mAh of battery capacity against 3500mAh. The Motorola Moto Z Force features a slightly better camera than Samsung Galaxy S7 edge, because although it has a tinier aperture which is not good for low-light photography, and they both have the same video frame rates and the same video definition, the Motorola Moto Z Force also counts with a way higher 21 mega-pixels resolution camera in the back.
Although Galaxy S7 edge is a better device, it costs more money than Moto Z Force, and it doesn't have such a good price and quality relation as Moto Z Force. So if you want that extra features and specs, you can buy Galaxy S7 edge, otherwise you can save some money and get the Moto Z Force, resigning a couple features and specs.
