Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: WiPhone at none against Mercury's 5. WiPhone also leads on update cadence (every 13 months vs every 70 months) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.0). Mercury's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 67%). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
