Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: TextMagic at every 2 weeks against SMS Enabled's every 13 months. TextMagic also leads on ratings volume (263 vs 1). SMS Enabled's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
