The Moto Z2 Force Edition body is a lot newer, a little bit lighter and somewhat thinner than the Xperia Z3+. Xperia Z3+ features a bit more vivid display than Moto Z2 Force Edition, although it has a just a bit worse count of pixels per inch in the screen, a lot lower resolution of 1920 x 1080px and a bit smaller display.
The Moto Z2 Force Edition features a much better storage capacity to store more apps and games than Xperia Z3+, because it has more internal memory capacity and a SD card slot that allows up to 1,95 TB. The Moto Z2 Force Edition counts with a greater performance than Xperia Z3+, because it has a greater amount of RAM and a larger number of cores (and faster).
The Xperia Z3+ counts with a little bit better camera than Moto Z2 Force Edition, and although they both have the same video frame rate, the same aperture and the same 3840x2160 video definition, the Xperia Z3+ also has a lot higher resolution camera in the back and a much bigger back-facing camera sensor taking more light and vivid colors.
The Sony Xperia Z3+ features a bit longer battery lifetime than Moto Z2 Force Edition, because it has a 2930mAh battery size.
Although Motorola Moto Z2 Force Edition is a better device, it costs a lot more money than the Sony Xperia Z3+, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as Sony Xperia Z3+. So if you want that extra features and specs, you can buy the Motorola Moto Z2 Force Edition, else you can save some money and get the Sony Xperia Z3+, giving up a couple features and specifications.
