I think the Pi4 has a better USB stack, but the Pi3 has some stability problems with USB peripherals. I eventually (with the right boot parameters) got a Pi3 to run OpenCV on a webcam without occasionally locking up; the PiZero still occasionally chokes on a USB sound card for me. It'll probably work, but audio hats (using I2S) or a camera using the dedicated camera bus are more reliable, though more limited than USB peripherals.
