Comparison review
The Xperia XZ3 has a score of 79.6, which is a little bit better than the Galaxy A6's 75.8 general score. Although it's the best in our current comparison, we must tell that it's also a somewhat heavier and much thicker phone. The Sony Xperia XZ3 features a much sharper display than Galaxy A6, because it has a way higher pixels density, a much higher 1440 x 2880px resolution and a little bigger screen.
The Xperia XZ3 features just a bit better processing power than Samsung Galaxy A6, and although they both have a Octa-Core processing unit, the Xperia XZ3 also has more RAM. Sony Xperia XZ3 takes much better videos and photos than Samsung Galaxy A6, because although it has a smaller aperture which is not nice for shooting photos and/or video in low light environments, it also counts with a much higher 3840x2160 (4K) video resolution, a larger back-facing camera sensor capturing higher quality videos and photos and a better 19 megapixels resolution camera in the back.
The Sony Xperia XZ3 features a way bigger memory capacity to install games and applications than Samsung Galaxy A6, because it has a slot for SD memory cards that holds up to 512 GB and 64 GB internal memory capacity. The Xperia XZ3 counts with a bit longer battery lifetime than Galaxy A6, because it has a 3330mAh battery capacity instead of 3000mAh.
Although Xperia XZ3 is a better device, it costs a lot more money than the Galaxy A6, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as Galaxy A6. So if you want that extra features and specs, you can buy the Xperia XZ3, but if you don't you can save some dollars and get the Galaxy A6, letting go a couple specs and features.
