Comparison review
Galaxy S5 has a general score of 80.8, which is just a bit better than the Moto Z4's 79.8 general score. Galaxy S5's design is somewhat lighter than the Moto Z4, but it's just a bit thicker and was released 5 years before. Both phones in our current comparison include Android OS (operating system), but the Galaxy S5 has newer 4.4.2 version while Moto Z4 has Android 10.
The Galaxy S5 counts with a lot better screen than Moto Z4, because although it has a way smaller screen and a bit lower resolution of 1920 x 1080px, it also counts with a higher number of pixels per inch of screen. Moto Z4 features a superior storage capacity to install applications and games or saving photos and videos than Samsung Galaxy S5, because it has an external memory slot that allows a maximum of 512 GB and more internal storage capacity.
The Galaxy S5 counts with a little faster processing unit than Moto Z4, because although it has lesser CPU cores (although they are faster) and less RAM memory, it also counts with an additional GPU. Moto Z4 shoots much better photographs and videos than Galaxy S5, and although they both have the same 30 frames per second video frame rate and the same video resolution, the Moto Z4 also has a camera in the back with a way higher resolution, a lot bigger sensor taking more light and vivid colors and a way larger camera aperture.
The Motorola Moto Z4 has greater battery performance than Samsung Galaxy S5, because it has a 3600mAh battery size.
Despite of being the best phone between the ones we are comparing, the Samsung Galaxy S5 is also by far the cheapest one, making it a no doubt choice.
