Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: HFun Fly at 3.4 against X's 3.1. HFun Fly also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). X's advantage is review sentiment (34% vs 18%) and ratings volume (30 vs 9). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
