Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Real Pool 3D at 4.6 against 8 Pool's 4.0. Real Pool 3D also leads on ratings volume (68K vs 2) and chart position (#126 vs unranked). 8 Pool's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 7 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
