Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: SmartPoint Home at 65% against Polaroid Wave's 4%. SmartPoint Home also leads on rating (4.8 vs 1.5) and ratings volume (670 vs 121). Polaroid Wave's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 11.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
