Both are free to download. Video Editor sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and KineMaster sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $8.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
KineMaster holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: KineMaster has 42K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
