Comparison review
Galaxy S5 has a general score of 80.8, which is slightly better than the Motorola Moto Z3's general score of 77.6. Despite of the fact the Galaxy S5 is incredibly older and thicker than Motorola Moto Z3, it's design is still a little lighter. Both devices in this review include Android OS, but the Galaxy S5 has older 4.4.2 version while Motorola Moto Z3 has Android 9.0 Pie.
Samsung Galaxy S5 counts with a little bit better processing power than Moto Z3, because although it has a lower amount of RAM memory and 4 less cpu cores , it also counts with an additional graphics processing unit. The Samsung Galaxy S5 features a much better looking screen than Motorola Moto Z3, because although it has a little bit worse 1920 x 1080 resolution and a quite smaller display, it also counts with more pixels per inch in the screen.
Samsung Galaxy S5 features a bit better camera than Moto Z3, because although it has a tinier aperture which is not favorable for low light photos, and they both have the same video frame rates and the same (4K) video definition, the Samsung Galaxy S5 also counts with a larger sensor taking more light and vivid colors and a way more mega-pixels camera in the back.
Moto Z3 has much more memory capacity for applications, games, photos and videos than Samsung Galaxy S5, because it has an external memory slot that admits up to 1,95 TB and more internal storage. The Motorola Moto Z3 features just a little better battery lifetime than Galaxy S5, because it has a 7% larger battery size.
Although Samsung Galaxy S5 is a better device, it costs more money than the Moto Z3, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as Moto Z3. If you prefer to save a few dollars, you can get the Moto Z3, and give up a few specs and features, but you will get the most out of your savings.
