Comparison review
The Samsung Galaxy Note10 has a score of 89, which is way better than the Xperia XZ's 73.5 general score. The Samsung Galaxy Note10 construction is incredibly newer and a little thinner, but also just a little bit heavier than Xperia XZ. Xperia XZ and Samsung Galaxy Note10 both have very similar screens, because although the Samsung Galaxy Note10 has a bit inferior pixels number per inch in the display, it also counts with a quite better 1080 x 2280px resolution and a bigger display.
The Galaxy Note10 counts with a little better processing power than Sony Xperia XZ, because it has more RAM and a greater number of cores (and also faster). The Galaxy Note10 has a lot bigger storage for applications, games, photos and videos than Sony Xperia XZ, because although it has no SD card slot, it also counts with more internal memory.
Galaxy Note10 features better battery performance than Xperia XZ, because it has a 3500mAh battery size. The Sony Xperia XZ has just a bit better camera than Galaxy Note10, because although it has slower video frame rate and a way tinier diafragm aperture which is not so good for low light photography and video, and they both have the same (4K) video resolution, the Sony Xperia XZ also counts with a lot better resolution back facing camera and a bigger back-facing camera sensor taking more light and vivid colors.
Although Galaxy Note10 is a better device, it is way more expensive than the Xperia XZ, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as Xperia XZ. So if you want that extra features and specs, you can buy the Galaxy Note10, else you can save some dollars and get the Xperia XZ, giving up some features and specifications.
