Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Feedit at none against Newsreel RSS's 1. Feedit also leads on review sentiment (33% vs 0%). Newsreel RSS's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (9.1 vs 18.5). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
