Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Esentai at 3.0 against SmartPlaza's 1.5. SmartPlaza's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (9% vs 0%). On price, ratings volume, 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.
Esentai holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 1.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 4 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 9% of SmartPlaza's written reviews are positive against 0% of Esentai's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SmartPlaza ships an update every 3 weeks, Esentai every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on June 8, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
