Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Pixel Live Wallpaper at none against MyScreen's shown. Pixel Live Wallpaper also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). MyScreen's advantage is ratings volume (313K vs 16) and chart position (#73 vs unranked). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
