Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Redzone at 4.0 against Plex Mobile's 3.0. Redzone also leads on monetization model (free vs subscription) and update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly). Plex Mobile's advantage is review sentiment (40% vs 29%) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
