Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Sling Away at none against Sling Kong's shown. Sling Away also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Sling Kong's advantage is ratings volume (19K vs 6). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
