Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Mobile Data at 5.0 against Device Settings's 4.1. Mobile Data also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ads (none vs shown). Device Settings's advantage is update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (1.2K vs 1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
