Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Lorex Classic at none against blurams's 14. Lorex Classic also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.1 vs 14.0). blurams's advantage is review sentiment (55% vs 21%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
