Mega Photo Pro's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.1) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). On device support there is nothing between them.

Mega Photo Pro holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1.

Written reviews complicate that: 82% of Mega Photo Pro's written reviews are positive against 100% of The Frame Camera's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
