Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Mento at 5.0 against NAS File Explorer's 2.4. Mento also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 18 months). NAS File Explorer's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (13 vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
