They are not the same. They are made of cheaper plastic with looser tolerances, leading to builds that bend or fall apart. And they don't have the tiny LEGO imprint they advertises the quality of the mold and tolerance.

None of that should affect the performance of the app, though.

These is the kind Lego your grandma would buy you for Christmas and you'd have to smile and say thanks while knowing they're not compatible and then vigilantly ensuring they don't contaminate the master Lego set

So in every measure relevant to this context, they are exactly the same. Of course they're distinct.
