VR Compatibility: Moto G6 vs E5 Play

I hope this is the correct place to ask this (they directed me here from Meta Exchange). I'm starting to program in VR with Unity (for Android) and I'm looking to get a low-cost smartphone with VR support. My phone company offered me free either a Moto G6 Play or a Moto E5 Play. According to their specifications, both are VR capable (gyroscope and motion sensor included). However, I've read mixed reviews online, so I would like to confirm if both are really VR compatible and which would be best for testing gaming related media.
