Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Ez Rez at none against ResX's 8. Ez Rez also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 73%). ResX's advantage is ratings volume (609 vs 4) and chart position (#13 vs unranked). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
