Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: HKTVmall at 4.5 against MoneyBack's 3.2. HKTVmall also leads on ratings volume (455 vs 28) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks). MoneyBack's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
