# Z视介 vs CCTV手机电视

The clearest difference is review sentiment: CCTV手机电视 at 96% against Z视介's 39%. CCTV手机电视 also leads on rating (3.7 vs 1.3) and ratings volume (2.2K vs 26). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Z视介 sells 23 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and CCTV手机电视 sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

CCTV手机电视 holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 1.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CCTV手机电视 has 2.2K ratings behind it against 26, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 39% of Z视介's written reviews are positive against 96% of CCTV手机电视's.

Z视介 ships an update monthly, CCTV手机电视 every 5 weeks. Both last shipped on September 23, 2026.
