Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Feedly at 4.6 against Newst's 1.0. Feedly also leads on review sentiment (40% vs 0%) and ads (none vs shown). Newst's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
