Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Sjónvarp Símans at 4.5 against PEZ Play's 3.7. Sjónvarp Símans also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). PEZ Play's advantage is review sentiment (56% vs 17%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
