Comparison review
The Samsung Galaxy S7 edge has a general score of 78.1, which is a bit better than Motorola Moto G Power's 76.1 score. Samsung Galaxy S7 edge's design is lighter and extremely thinner than Motorola Moto G Power, despite of the fact that it was released many years before. Both of these phones come with Android operating system, but Samsung Galaxy S7 edge has a newer 8.0 Oreo version and Motorola Moto G Power has Android 11 version, so it provides you a couple nice extra features and enhanced performance.
Moto G Power has just a little better processing power than Galaxy S7 edge, and although they both have the same RAM memory amount, the Moto G Power also has a greater number of cores (although slower). Samsung Galaxy S7 edge features a bit more vivid screen than Moto G Power, because although it has a little bit smaller screen, it also counts with a higher resolution of 1440 x 2560 pixels and a higher amount of pixels per inch in the screen.
The Moto G Power counts with a much bigger storage for applications and games than Galaxy S7 edge, because it has more internal memory capacity and a slot for an external memory card that supports a maximum of 512 GB. Moto G Power counts with a way better battery performance than Samsung Galaxy S7 edge, because it has a 5000mAh battery capacity.
The Motorola Moto G Power has a little bit better camera than Samsung Galaxy S7 edge, because although it has a tinier sensor capturing worse quality photographs, and they both have the same video quality, a same size aperture and the same video frame rates, the Motorola Moto G Power also counts with a lot more mega-pixels back camera.
Although Galaxy S7 edge is a better device, it costs a lot more than Moto G Power, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the Moto G Power. If you prefer to save a few dollars, you can buy Moto G Power, and give up a few features and specifications, but you will get the most with your savings.
