Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: HiEasy at 4.4 against besteye's 3.2. HiEasy also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (1.5K vs 12). besteye's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
