Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: My Talking Calculator at 3.7 against SpeechCalc's 1.0. My Talking Calculator also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (3 vs 1). SpeechCalc's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 9 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
