Comparison review
The Samsung Galaxy Note Fan Edition has an overall score of 80.4, which is a little bit better than the Motorola Moto Z3's 77.6 general score. Even though the Samsung Galaxy Note Fan Edition is better than the Motorola Moto Z3, it must be told that it is also an older, a little bit heavier and somewhat thicker cellphone.
The Galaxy Note Fan Edition features a bit sharper screen than Motorola Moto Z3, because although it has a little bit smaller screen, it also counts with more pixels per inch in the screen and a higher 1440 x 2560 resolution. Motorola Moto Z3 has a much bigger memory for applications and games than Galaxy Note Fan Edition, and although they both have the same internal storage, the Motorola Moto Z3 also has an external SD slot that allows up to 1,95 TB.
The Motorola Moto Z3 counts with just a little better hardware performance than Samsung Galaxy Note Fan Edition. Both have a 4 GB RAM and 8 cores. Galaxy Note Fan Edition features just a little better battery life than Motorola Moto Z3, because it has 3200mAh of battery capacity against 3000mAh. Moto Z3 has a camera that is very similar to Samsung Galaxy Note Fan Edition's camera, and although the Moto Z3 has a smaller back-facing camera sensor and a smaller diafragm aperture, they both have the same (4K) video quality, the same 30 frames per second video frame rates and a 12 mega pixels back-facing camera.
Although Samsung Galaxy Note Fan Edition is a better device, it costs a lot more money than Moto Z3, and it doesn't have such a good price and quality relation as the Moto Z3. So if you want that extra specs and features, you can buy Samsung Galaxy Note Fan Edition, but if you don't you can save some money and get the Moto Z3, giving up a couple specs and features.
