The clearest difference is rating: Video Trimmer at 5.0 against Video Cutter's 4.2. Video Cutter's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Video Cutter sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and Video Trimmer sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
