Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Launchpad at 5.0 against Classic's 4.0. Launchpad also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 15 months). Classic's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
