If you're only interested in what you see on your phone or tablet while flying and not the quality of the image, the Zoom has the advantage.
When the video mode is set to 1080P/30 or less, the Zoom has the ability to do 2X optical zoom plus 2X lossless digital zoom for an effective 4X focal length of 96mm.
This is not really a lossless zoom as it's just cropping the video which is why it's not available at the full 4K video mode, it's possible to crop any other 4k video to produce a lower resolution 1080p video for the same 'zoom'.
