# 新浪新闻 vs 财联社

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 新浪新闻 at none against 财联社's 13. 新浪新闻 also leads on ratings volume (11K vs 1.8K). 财联社's advantage is review sentiment (83% vs 53%) and rating (4.7 vs 4.4). On price, update cadence, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 财联社 sells 13 one-off in-app purchases. 新浪新闻 asks for nothing beyond the download.

财联社 holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 新浪新闻 has 11K ratings behind it against 1.8K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 53% of 新浪新闻's written reviews are positive against 83% of 财联社's.

新浪新闻 ships an update fortnightly, 财联社 every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 28, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
