Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Microsoft Outlook at 4.8 against QQ邮箱's 3.6. Microsoft Outlook also leads on ratings volume (9.3M vs 729) and update cadence (weekly vs monthly). QQ邮箱's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. QQ邮箱 sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Microsoft Outlook sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Microsoft Outlook holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Microsoft Outlook has 9.3M ratings behind it against 729, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 51% of QQ邮箱's written reviews are positive against 64% of Microsoft Outlook's.
QQ邮箱 ships an update monthly, Microsoft Outlook weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
