Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: X Factor Ops at none against Playbook's 2. X Factor Ops also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Playbook's advantage is ratings volume (117 vs 1) and update cadence (weekly vs every 4 weeks). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
