Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: du at 4.5 against ADNOC Dist's 3.0. du also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). ADNOC Dist's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
