Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: FT中文网 at 4.7 against 美国之音's 3.8. FT中文网 also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (1.6K vs 44). 美国之音's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
