Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Zen IPTV Player at none against IPTV Smarters Player PRO's shown. Zen IPTV Player also leads on review sentiment (81% vs 59%) and device support (5 vs 3). IPTV Smarters Player PRO's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (1.5K vs 161). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
