Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Lorex Classic at 4.6 against X10 Linked's 2.6. Lorex Classic also leads on ratings volume (25K vs 19) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). X10 Linked's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 12.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
