Comparison review
The Xperia XZ3 is a little bit better than Motorola One, having a 79.6 score against 74.3. Both phones we are comparing work with the same Android 9.0 Pie OS, so they should count with the same OS features. Despite being the best phone in this comparison review, it must be noted that it's also incredibly thicker and heavier.
The Xperia XZ3 counts with a bit more powerful processing unit than Motorola One. They have 8 cpu cores and the same RAM memory amount. Sony Xperia XZ3 features a much sharper screen than Motorola One, because it has a little bit larger display, way more pixels per inch in the display and a way better 1440 x 2880 resolution.
The Xperia XZ3 takes clearer pictures and videos than Motorola One, and although they both have a F2 camera aperture, the same 30 fps video frame rate and the same (4K) video quality, the Xperia XZ3 also has a way more mega pixels camera. The Xperia XZ3 has a slightly bigger storage capacity for applications, games, photos and videos than Motorola One, and although they both have the same internal memory capacity, the Xperia XZ3 also has a SD memory card expansion slot that allows a maximum of 512 GB.
The Sony Xperia XZ3 counts with just a little bit longer battery life than Motorola One, because it has 3330mAh of battery capacity instead of 3000mAh.
Although Xperia XZ3 is a better device, it costs a lot more than the Motorola One, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the Motorola One. If you want to save some money, you can buy the Motorola One, and give up a couple features and specs, but you will get the most with your budget.
