Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: My Adventist Library at none against Lelo Reader's 1. My Adventist Library also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.4). Lelo Reader's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
