Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: ObiPhone at 100% against Lenser's 0%. ObiPhone also leads on price ($1.99 vs $26.99) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 months). Lenser's advantage is iOS requirement (14.0 vs 18). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
