Comparison review
The Sony Xperia XZ3 is a little bit better than the LG V10, with a 79.6 score against 78.6. Both devices in this review include Android operating system, but Sony Xperia XZ3 has the newer 9.0 Pie version and LG V10 has Android 5.1, offering some nice extra features and some performance improvements. The Sony Xperia XZ3 design is notably newer, but thicker and just a bit heavier than LG V10.
LG V10 counts with a bit better looking display than Sony Xperia XZ3, although it has a quite lower resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels, a bit inferior pixels number per inch in the screen and a bit smaller display. The LG V10 counts with a superior memory to store more games and applications than Xperia XZ3, and although they both have exactly the same 64 GB internal storage, the LG V10 also has a SD memory card expansion slot that allows up to 1,95 TB.
The Sony Xperia XZ3 counts with a superior hardware performance than LG V10, and although they both have 4 GB of RAM, the Sony Xperia XZ3 also has a larger number of cores. Sony Xperia XZ3 has a bit superior battery life than LG V10, because it has 3330mAh of battery capacity. LG V10 features a little bit better camera than Sony Xperia XZ3, because although it has a lower 3840x2160 video definition, a less mega pixels camera and a tinier back-facing camera sensor which offers a worse photo and video quality, it also counts with a bigger camera aperture for better captures and video in low-light situations.
Although Xperia XZ3 is a better device, it costs a lot more money than the LG V10, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as the LG V10. If you want to save some money, you can buy LG V10, letting go a few specs and features, but you will get the most out of your budget.
