The Moto Z3 takes slightly better photographs and videos than Huawei Mate X, although it has a back camera with much less megapixels, a tinier aperture which is not good for capturing photos and/or video in low light environments and a way tinier back camera sensor.
Although Huawei Mate X is a better device, it costs a lot more than the Motorola Moto Z3, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as Motorola Moto Z3. So if you want that extra features, you can buy the Huawei Mate X, otherwise you can save some dollars and buy the Motorola Moto Z3, letting go a couple features and specifications.
