Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: My Gecko at none against Chameleon Evolution's 10. My Gecko also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Chameleon Evolution's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 12 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
