The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Rubik's Connected at none against Clock n Cube's 10. Rubik's Connected also leads on ads (none vs shown). Clock n Cube's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 4 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
