James announced on his Twitter, “My life’s more than just basketball…With @LIFEWTR, we’re hoping others go out & find their passion & purpose like I’ve found mine.” Later ‘LifeWtr‘ along with the 4X MVP went on to donate $100,000+ for people who want to pursue more in life. 

On the other hand, the Portugal legend entered the market just a few weeks back. Though he is yet to make significant donations, the 38-year-old continues to heavily promote his brand, the ‘URSU9‘. 

The 5-time Ballon d’Or winner shared on his Instagram, “Today, we are making one of my lifelong dreams a reality: investing and offering you something that drinks from the very essence of life and health and has played a vital role in shaping who I am today.”

Keeping the brilliant promotions aside, let us come to the elephant in the room. How much do these cost? A 500ml bottle of LeBron James’ ‘LifeWtr’ stands at $0.89 approx. and Ronaldo’s ‘URSU‘ at $0.73 approx.

Is there a difference in taste between ‘LifeWtr’ and ‘URSU9’?

According to Ronaldo’s official website, the ‘URSU9‘ is naturally alkaline. Moreover, when compared with the Lakers superstar’s brand, the ‘URSU9‘ also has a higher pH value. 

While the pH of ‘LifeWtr‘ stands at 6.4 to 7.4, the soccer superstar’s water brand has a high pH of 9, which is believed to have more health benefits. It is safe to say that Ronaldo has added better features to his brand.
