Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Labcoin at none against Sling Kong's 10. Labcoin also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 85%). Sling Kong's advantage is ratings volume (19K vs 1) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 7 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
