Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: The National E at 67% against UAE INFO's 24%. The National E also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.0) and in-app purchases (none vs 2). UAE INFO's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 8 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
