Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Pixel Mojis at 100% against OpenMoji's 14%. Pixel Mojis also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.7). OpenMoji's advantage is ratings volume (15 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
