Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: VIDEOBUSTER at none against X Player's 1. VIDEOBUSTER also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). X Player's advantage is rating (3.4 vs 3.0) and ratings volume (30 vs 2). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
