Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Monokaro at 5.0 against NFC E's 3.3. Monokaro also leads on review sentiment (67% vs 38%) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months). NFC E's advantage is ratings volume (14 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
