The Sony Xperia Z3+ takes much clearer photos and videos than Asus ROG Phone, because although it has slower video frame rates and a tinier diafragm aperture, and they both have the same (4K) video quality, the Sony Xperia Z3+ also counts with a larger back camera sensor taking higher quality videos and photographs.
