I have owned both these devices. Exynos isn't optimised for apps so I experienced bottlenecks and stutters in apps like Pokemon GO and Spotify, all social media apps and Snapchat too. Moto doesn't seem to suffer from this. Samsung also doubles up on most apps, and doesn't have wireless charging. But it does have a better camera and screen. I choose the moto for the above reasons.
