Moto Z4 (2019) vs OnePlus 6 (2018)

We couldn't find enough data on either product to be able to come to any reliable conclusions. We highly recommend that you take a look at some other options in the $600 and $440 budget ranges instead.

While the Moto Z4 (2019) wasn't able to make it to the very top of any roundups from sources that perform quality hands-on testing, it still got featured in a large number of them. PhoneArena, PCmag, Techradar, The Verge, Android Authority, and Android Central have all deemed it worthy of a place on their respective shortlists.

Returning to the OnePlus 6 (2018) - it was really well-received by reviewers at AVForums and bicycling.com, which are among the most highly trusted sources on the internet and are known for their in-depth hands-on testing. It was named "Best Smartphone Under £500 2018" by AVForums and "Ranked 3 out of 9" by bicycling.com, which points toward the OnePlus 6 (2018) being a high-quality product.

We conducted an analysis of all of the review data that we could find on these two products. First, we focused on sources that tested and rated both of them, like PhoneArena, Techradar, Android Central, Digitaltrends, PCmag, and The Verge, and learned that they all showed a preference for the OnePlus 6 (2018).

Then we took a look at the highest review scores that these two Smartphones received. We found that the Moto Z4 (2019) managed to earn a rating of 9 from PhoneArena, whereas the OnePlus 6 (2018) got its highest, 9.7, score from reviewers at zdnet.com.

It should be said that doing a direct Moto Z4 (2019) vs. OnePlus 6 (2018) comparison might not be entirely fair due to the difference in their prices - some sources don't put much weight on value for money and thus tend to give better review scores to more expensive products.
