Moto Z2 Force by Lenovo vs Sony Xperia XZ Premium

Building on the available accessories from the first generation Moto Z phones, now you can instantly attach a 360 degree camera, game controller, JBL stereo speakers, 10x zoom Hasselblad camera, InstaShare projector, or Battery Boost packs to the back of the phone thanks to embedded rear magnets and pogo pins.

The phone's accelerometer and infrared sensors work in tandem to sense when you handle the device and strategically wake the screen with a clock and your notifications for a few seconds, keeping you updated as information arrives without a noticeable drain on the battery.

Just 6.1mm thick and sporting a 7000-series aircraft grade aluminum frame, this phone is both strong and stylish, offered in several metallic color finishes.

Motorola by Lenovo actually guarantees the front display won't crack for four years from date of purchase, trusting that the 5-layer ShatterShield design can withstand all but the most obscene levels of abuse.

The rounded corners found in the XZ Premium make it easy to use this phone with one hand, even though the large bezels might make it harder for people with small hands.

The XZ Premium supports high-resolution audio with ALAC, DSD, FLAC, and LPCM file formats. Listening to music through headphones is a real treat with uniformly crisp highs, mids, and lows.

The 4GB of RAM and the Snapdragon 835 found in the XZ Premium are more than enough to provide some excellent performance with nary a stutter.

The 19MP primary camera is packed with features. For starters, it has same RGB and IR sensors that improve color reproduction and focus speed respectively. There's also a CMOS sensor with phase detection autofocus that helps with low-light shooting. Finally, there's Motion Eye: a memory-embedded sensor that immediately processes images to minimize distortion.

All of this hardware packed together manages to capture some of the most detailed and high-quality photos a smartphone can take, coming extremely close to the quality of photos taken by the S8 which is considered to have the best camera for this generation of smartphones.

The Xperia XZ Premium has a 5.5inch 4K display. It roughly has around 807 pixels per inch, which is far more pixels than the competition manages to display on their phone. This results in the sharpest images ever seen on a smartphone display.
