Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: CPU Detector at 4.6 against CPU Info's 2.5. CPU Detector also leads on ratings volume (427 vs 2) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.3). CPU Info's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
