Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: BrickPhone at none against Orbit's 3. BrickPhone also leads on update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). Orbit's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.6). On price, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
