Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Cube Companion at none against Magic Cube's shown. Cube Companion also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 6 months). Magic Cube's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.5). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
