‣ Actually plays music offline – revolutionary, we know. ‣ A ClickyBar for navigation, which feels like a bubble wrapping you can't stop popping. ‣ Regular offline use results in a battery that outlasts your ex. ‣ No ads, no subscriptions... Just works, like its' 2001. ‣ FanMode* in-app-purchase unlocks themes. (*)The app works perfectly without FanMode, but still that's how you should hold it! And also someone needs to pay the bills...

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: classicㅤ at 5.0 against StereoX's 4.4. classicㅤ also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 80%) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 4 months). StereoX's advantage is ratings volume (143 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
