Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SWeb at 5.0 against Private Browser's 4.2. SWeb also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 18.0). Private Browser's advantage is ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
