Verdict
Text Editor and Code both sit at 4.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 75% of Text Editor's written reviews are positive against 38% of Code's. Code's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks) and ratings volume (33 vs 4). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
