Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: IPTVX at 4.4 against GameBox's 3.8. IPTVX also leads on review sentiment (45% vs 11%) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 months). GameBox's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 16) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
