Although Motorola Moto Z4 is a better device, it costs a lot more than Xiaomi Mi 5s, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as Xiaomi Mi 5s. If you want to save a few dollars, you can get Xiaomi Mi 5s, letting go some specs and features, but you will get the most out of your savings.
