Verdict

The call

Pixel Pro Tennis and 8 both sit at 4.1 stars, but that hides the real split: 67% of 8's written reviews are positive against 29% of Pixel Pro Tennis's. 8 also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 7) and ads (none vs shown). Pixel Pro Tennis's advantage is ratings volume (457 vs 3) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). On price, rating, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
