Comparison review
Xperia Z3 has a score of 75.8, which is slightly better than LG G6's 75.6 general score. Both of these phones have Android operating system, but Xperia Z3 has older 4.4.4 version and LG G6 has Android 9.0 Pie version. The Xperia Z3 design is a bit lighter and just a bit thinner than LG G6, although it was released 3 years before.
Xperia Z3 counts with a little faster processor than LG G6, because although it has 1 GB less RAM, and they both have 4 cores, the Xperia Z3 also counts with a graphics processing unit. The Sony Xperia Z3 has a bit sharper display than LG G6, although it has a little bit smaller screen, a lot lower resolution of 1920 x 1080px and a bit worse screen pixel density.
LG G6 counts with a much better storage for applications, games, photos and videos than Sony Xperia Z3, because it has more internal storage and a SD card slot that admits up to 1,95 TB. The LG G6 has a bit better battery performance than Sony Xperia Z3, because it has 3300mAh of battery capacity against 3100mAh.
Xperia Z3 counts with a slightly better camera than LG G6, because although it has a smaller camera aperture which is not favorable for shooting photographs or video in low light situations, and they both have the same video definition and the same video frame rates, the Xperia Z3 also counts with a camera in the back with way more megapixels and a way bigger back camera sensor providing a way higher image quality.
Although Xperia Z3 is a better device, it costs a bit more money than the LG G6, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as the LG G6. So if you want that extra specs, you can buy the Xperia Z3, otherwise you can save a couple dollars and buy the LG G6, letting go a couple specs and features.
