# 腾讯视频 vs MangoTV

The clearest difference is rating: 腾讯视频 at 4.6 against MangoTV's 2.0. 腾讯视频 also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs monthly) and review sentiment (33% vs 13%). MangoTV's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 腾讯视频 sells 18 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and MangoTV sells 21 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

腾讯视频 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 腾讯视频 has 26K ratings behind it against 718, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 33% of 腾讯视频's written reviews are positive against 13% of MangoTV's.

腾讯视频 ships an update every 6 days, MangoTV monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
