# Simple RAW Camera vs RAW Experience

The clearest difference is review sentiment: RAW Experience at 100% against Simple RAW Camera's 55%. RAW Experience also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.3) and ads (none vs shown). Simple RAW Camera's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 15 months) and ratings volume (83 vs 2).
