Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CBT Tests at none against CES Test's 1. CBT Tests also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 13.0). CES Test's advantage is review sentiment (17% vs 0%). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
