# Steam Link vs HISINGY

The clearest difference is review sentiment: HISINGY at 79% against Steam Link's 43%. HISINGY also leads on rating (3.5 vs 3.3) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Steam Link's advantage is ratings volume (3K vs 8) and device support (6 vs 3). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

HISINGY holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 3.3.
