A lot of the early, popular Beatles' tunes are themselves covers.
In my view, your question really has absolutely no answer. Whether something is "better" to one person in terms of musical enjoyment is totally, utterly subjective.
With this in mind though, I will pitch in that Bryan Ferry's version of "It's Only Love" is my favourite Beatles cover. I prefer it over the Beatles' version.
And to reverse the question, although I like John Lennon's cover of "Stand by Me", I prefer the earlier Ben E. King version.
