The Xperia Z3 takes a little bit better photos and videos than Samsung Galaxy XCover Pro, because although it has a back facing camera with a lower 20.7 mega pixels resolution and a smaller camera aperture which is not good for low-light captures, it also counts with a lot better (4K) video resolution and a way larger back-facing camera sensor taking much higher quality videos and photos.
Although Galaxy XCover Pro is a better device, it costs a lot more than the Xperia Z3, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as Xperia Z3. If you are trying to save a few dollars, you can get Xperia Z3, and give up a few features and specifications, but you'll get the most out of your money.
