Comparison review
The Samsung Galaxy Note Edge has a global score of 81.7, which is much better than Xperia Z3+'s 73.7 general score. Despite being the best in this comparison review, it must be told that it is also a heavier and thicker device. These phones have the same Android 5.0 OS (Operating System), so both of them should give all the same operating system features.
The Galaxy Note Edge counts with a little bit better looking screen than Sony Xperia Z3+, because it has a little bit larger screen, a higher 2560 x 1440 pixels resolution and a little bit higher count of pixels per inch of display. The Samsung Galaxy Note Edge features as much memory to install games and applications as the Xperia Z3+, both of them have a SD memory slot that allows a maximum of 128 GB and the same internal storage.
Samsung Galaxy Note Edge has a better processing power than Sony Xperia Z3+, and although they both have a 3 GB RAM, the Samsung Galaxy Note Edge also has an additional graphics co-processor and a higher number of cores. Xperia Z3+ has a little bit better camera than Galaxy Note Edge, and although they both have the same 30 fps video frame rates and the same 3840x2160 video definition, the Xperia Z3+ also has a bigger sensor which gives a better image and video quality, a larger camera aperture and a back camera with a way better 20.7 mega-pixels resolution.
Samsung Galaxy Note Edge has a little better battery performance than Xperia Z3+, because it has a 2% greater battery size.
Although Samsung Galaxy Note Edge is a better device, it is way more expensive than the Sony Xperia Z3+, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the Sony Xperia Z3+. If you are trying to save a few dollars, you can buy Sony Xperia Z3+, giving up a few features and specs, but you'll get the most with your money.
