Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Mercury Smart at 4.7 against Versacam's 1.8. Mercury Smart also leads on review sentiment (50% vs 13%) and ratings volume (296 vs 46). Versacam's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
