Comparison review
Xperia Z4v has an overall score of 78.8, which is a little bit better than the Sony Xperia Z3's 77.3 global score. The Xperia Z4v design is newer, just a bit thinner and a little bit lighter than Sony Xperia Z3. Both of these phones come with Android OS (Operating System), but the Xperia Z4v has 5.1 version and Sony Xperia Z3 has Android 4.4.4, providing a lot of extra features.
Xperia Z4v's processing unit is very similar to the CPU in Sony Xperia Z3, and although the Xperia Z4v has 4 more cpu cores and a faster graphics co-processor, they both have 3 GB of RAM. The Sony Xperia Z4v features a bit more vivid screen than Sony Xperia Z3, and although they both have a display of the same size, the Sony Xperia Z4v also has a higher 2560 x 1440 resolution and a greater number of pixels per inch of screen.
The Sony Xperia Z4v and Xperia Z3 feature quite similar memory capacity for applications, games, photos and videos, both have equal internal storage and a SD extension slot that admits a maximum of 128 GB. The Xperia Z3 has a little longer battery lifetime than Xperia Z4v, because it has 3200mAh of battery capacity instead of 3000mAh.
The Sony Xperia Z4v has a slightly better camera than Sony Xperia Z3. They have a 0.43 inches sensor, a same size camera aperture, the same video frame rate, a 20.7 megapixels back facing camera and the same 3840x2160 (4K) video definition.
Although Sony Xperia Z4v is a better device, it is way more expensive than Sony Xperia Z3, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the Sony Xperia Z3. So if you want that extra specs and features, you can buy the Sony Xperia Z4v, else you can save some dollars and buy the Sony Xperia Z3, resigning a couple specifications.
