Length	51 ft	48 ft	Longer is only better if the roofline needs it. The calculator says which.

Weather rating	UL, waterproof	UL, weatherproof	The higher number survives more water. Anything under a gutter wants IP67 or better.

The differences that matter

Length: Banord is 51 ft, the Ambience Pro 48 ft. Three feet matters only if your run sits close to one of the two.
Spacing: 36 in against 38 in is a small gap, so neither string looks noticeably denser than the other.
Bulbs: Banord's listing gives S14 bulbs at 1 W and 2700K. The Ambience Pro is 2 W per bulb and offered in 2500K, 2700K or 3000K.
Weather: Banord is listed as UL and waterproof, the Ambience Pro as UL and weatherproof. The wording differs but neither gives an IP rating.
Track record: the Ambience Pro's product notes say its record is less settled than the spec sheet suggests. Banord's notes describe a plain string with no app and no radio.
