Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Mi Remote at every 3 weeks against Screen Mirroring's every 2 months. Mi Remote also leads on review sentiment (33% vs 24%). Screen Mirroring's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price, rating, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
