Sometimes you just need to see whether or not there's any difference in results between two machines to know if you're going to pick one over the other, and in the case of these two entry-level Elegoo printers there's just enough difference to be visible if you squint. For me, the real difference is in the bigger build plate on the Mars 3 - definitely a selling point even if the print quality doesn't matter to you that much!
