Moto Z2 Force comes with 12MP + 12MP sensors, one of which is a Monochrome and other one is an RGB sensor. The aperture on both the sensors is f/2.0 which captures some good pictures in artificial and low light condition, but it shows some grains.

There are a selective focus and the selective Black and White mode. Moto Z2 Force can shoot 4K videos at 30 fps, but it lacks any kind of stabilization. OnePlus 5T, on the other hand, used a wide angle lens in its dual camera setup which can optically zoom up to 2X and also can add depth to the pictures. The smartphone comes with a f/1.7 aperture for best results in low light conditions.

The display experience is precisely similar to the one we saw on its predecessor OnePlus 5; the only difference is that the display on OnePlus 5T comes with 18:9 aspect ratio.
The Moto Z2 Force comes with 5.5 inches P-OLED display which comes with 16:9 aspect ratio. The screen comes with QHD resolution and itis protected by Motorola’s Shatterproof protection, Motorola even provides four years of warranty on this display. The display experience is excellent; the outdoor experience is also excellent.
Performance and Gaming
OnePlus 5T comes with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor with 8GB/ 6GB RAM, and the smartphone is super fast whether it is high graphics gaming or multitasking. No app refreshes in the background as there is plenty of RAM left for that. The smartphone can even multitask a few high-end games. The OS also provides the seamless performance, and the interface is smooth as well.
Moto Z2 Force also comes with the same hardware, it features the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor, but it comes in only 6GB RAM variant. The performance is not an issue here too because the Moto Z2 Force comes with stock Android 8.0 Oreo, it comes with a few apps from Moto, but overall the experience is swift and super smooth. The multitasking and gaming is not a lot of difference between these two smartphones because of both shares the same type of hardware.
Design
Moto Z2 Force and OnePlus 5T both derive the same model as their predecessors except for the fact that the OnePlus 5T comes with an 18:9 aspect ratio. The Moto Z2 Force is still featuring a 16:9 display with the thick bezel on the top and at the bottom of the screen. The Moto Z2 has a metal unibody design with the super thin body (6.1 mm). The phone feels sleek in hands, it is almost slippery, but it fits perfectly in hands. There is a bump at the back of the phone for the camera module, and when you are not using a mod, it feels a bit off when putting it on a flat surface.
The OnePlus 5T also derives the same design from the OnePlus 5 smartphone, but this time the front display bezels are thin which provides a great look. The fingerprint sensor moved to the back, and the navigation bar is now a software-based navbar. The OnePlus 5T is also a slim smartphone, not as thin as the Moto Z2 Force but at least it is not at all slippery in hands.
