Comparison review
Sony Xperia 1 has a score of 82.6, which is slightly better than LG V10's score of 78.6. Sony Xperia 1's construction is incredibly newer, just a little bit lighter and a little bit thinner than the LG V10. Xperia 1 has a bit better looking display than LG V10, because it has a quite bigger screen, a just a bit higher screen pixel density and a higher 1644 x 3840 resolution.
The Sony Xperia 1 features a superior hardware performance than LG V10, because it has a higher number of cores (and faster) and a greater amount of RAM. The LG V10 has just a bit bigger memory to store more games and applications than Xperia 1, because although it has less internal storage capacity, it also counts with a slot for an external memory card that admits a maximum of 1,95 TB.
The LG V10 counts with just a bit better camera than Xperia 1, because although it has a smaller camera aperture which is not favorable for low-light images and videos, and they both have a 0.38 inches sensor and the same 3840x2160 (4K) video quality, the LG V10 also counts with better 120 fps video frame rates and a camera in the back with a much higher resolution.
Xperia 1 has a bit superior battery performance than LG V10, because it has 3330mAh of battery capacity instead of 3000mAh.
Although Xperia 1 is a better device, it costs a lot more money than the LG V10, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the LG V10. So if you need that extra features, you can buy Xperia 1, else you can save a couple dollars and get the LG V10, letting go some specs and features.
