Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: GoPro Quik at 4.8 against TELLO's 3.3. GoPro Quik also leads on ratings volume (833K vs 799) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). TELLO's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 6) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
