Comparison review
The Galaxy Note4 has a general score of 77.6, which is slightly better than Motorola Moto Z's 74.5 overall score. Although Galaxy Note4 is better than Motorola Moto Z, it must be noted that it is also an older, a lot thicker and notably heavier phone. Galaxy Note4's processor is just as good as the Motorola Moto Z one, because although the Galaxy Note4 has a lower amount of RAM memory, it also counts with a greater number of cores (but slower).
The Galaxy Note4 and Motorola Moto Z count with extremely similar screens, because although the Galaxy Note4 has a bit inferior pixels count in each screen inch, and they both have an equal resolution of 1440 x 2560 pixels, it also counts with a quite larger display. Galaxy Note4 shoots a bit better videos and photos than Moto Z, because although it has a tinier camera aperture which is not recommended for taking photos and video in poorly lited situations, and they both have the same (4K) video resolution and the same video frame rate, the Galaxy Note4 also counts with a camera in the back with more MP.
Moto Z has a superior storage capacity for games and applications than Galaxy Note4, and although they both have the same internal memory capacity, the Moto Z also has a SD memory slot that holds up to 1,95 TB. Samsung Galaxy Note4 has better battery performance than Motorola Moto Z, because it has a 3220mAh battery size.
