Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Teak Browser at free against ChatX's free with in-app purchases. Teak Browser also leads on update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). ChatX's advantage is review sentiment (88% vs 70%) and ratings volume (481 vs 39). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases 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. Teak Browser sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and ChatX sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
ChatX holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ChatX has 481 ratings behind it against 39, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 70% of Teak Browser's written reviews are positive against 88% of ChatX's.
Teak Browser ships an update weekly, ChatX fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
