NewsQuick also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.4) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). syracuse.com's advantage is ratings volume (6.9K vs 10) and chart position (#76 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
