Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Alex Albon at 4.9 against Formula E's 4.2. Alex Albon also leads on review sentiment (50% vs 22%). Formula E's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
