Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: V at none against Light Meter + SensorArray's 1. V also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.6). Light Meter + SensorArray's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 8 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
