The clearest difference is rating: Xfinity Stream at 4.6 against Watch TNT's 3.4. Xfinity Stream also leads on review sentiment (18% vs 3%) and ratings volume (260K vs 30K). Watch TNT's advantage is iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
