Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Plex Dash at 81% against Lenovo's 18%. Plex Dash also leads on rating (4.6 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (2.2K vs 126). Lenovo's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
