Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Pitapat at 4.7 against Sonolus's 3.8. Pitapat also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Sonolus's advantage is ratings volume (1K vs 15) and chart position (#21 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
