Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Mobapad at none against Holdem Watch's 7. Mobapad also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Holdem Watch's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
