Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Pintrs at 4.7 against PinOut!'s 4.2. Pintrs also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). PinOut!'s advantage is ratings volume (7.1K vs 7) and device support. On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Pintrs holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2.
