Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: APTV at 4.4 against NewPipe Player's 2.9. APTV also leads on ratings volume (382 vs 28) and chart position (#97 vs unranked). NewPipe Player's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
