Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: BLUETTI at 67% against SWD Camera's 22%. BLUETTI also leads on rating (4.2 vs 2.4) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). SWD Camera's advantage is iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
