Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: PhoneScan at none against My Device Info!'s shown. PhoneScan also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 16.0). My Device Info!'s advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.1) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 18 months). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
