Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GiteeClient at none against C Shell's 2. GiteeClient also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 3 months). C Shell's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (56% vs 24%). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
