Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: EclipseGo at none against Sun position and path's shown. EclipseGo also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Sun position and path's advantage is ratings volume (1.8K vs 2) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
