Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: X at 5.0 against Total Adblock's 4.0. X also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid). Total Adblock's advantage is ratings volume (43K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
