Sony Xperia Z4v features a sharper screen than LG V30, because although it has a quite lower 2560 x 1440 resolution and a little bit smaller screen, it also counts with a bit more pixels per display inch.
Xperia Z4v has a bit superior CPU than LG V30, because although it has a lower amount of RAM memory, and they both have a Octa-Core processor, the Xperia Z4v also counts with a graphics processing unit. Xperia Z4v shoots clearer photographs and videos than LG V30, because although it has a tinier diafragm aperture which is not so good for taking images and/or video in poorly lited environments, and they both have the same video frame rates and the same 3840x2160 (4K) video definition, the Xperia Z4v also counts with a way more MP camera in the back and a way bigger sensor capturing way higher quality videos and pictures.

If you are trying to save a few dollars, you can buy Xperia Z4v, and give up a few features and specs, but you will get the most out of your savings.
