Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Globe 3D at 4.2 against Globe Planet 3D's 2.0. Globe 3D also leads on ratings volume (2K vs 10) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Globe Planet 3D's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
