Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Pixel IPTV at none against Prime IPTV's shown. Pixel IPTV also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 4 weeks). Prime IPTV's advantage is device support (5 vs 3) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
