Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: OPlayer at 4.6 against Galaxy Player's 4.0. OPlayer also leads on ratings volume (961 vs 4). Galaxy Player's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and review sentiment (97% vs 70%). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

OPlayer costs $2.99 and Galaxy Player $2.99 up front. OPlayer sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Galaxy Player asks for nothing beyond the download.
OPlayer holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OPlayer has 961 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 70% of OPlayer's written reviews are positive against 97% of Galaxy Player's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
OPlayer ships an update every 2 months, Galaxy Player every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
