くせに、は相手がやることや、相手の人柄自体が嫌いだ、ということを強調します。
悪い感じを与える言葉です。

勉強していないくせに満点をとった
勉強していないのに満点をとった
この場合だと、どちらも同じような意味ですが、くせに の方が少し人をバカにしたような上からものを言うような表現なので、のに の方が無難です。

@S906li
くせに=kuseni
のに=noni
Case 1.
You promised you'd come but you didn't.
in Japanese…
★Anata wa kuru to yakusoku shita noni konakatta.
★Anata wa kuru to yakusoku shita kuseni konakatta.
These are almost same meanings.
I think "くせに "has stronger emotion to blame the other.
Case2
You are foreigner, but you speak English very well.
in Japanese…
★anata wa gaikokujin na noni
eigo wo totemo jouzuni hana shimasu.
★anata wa gaikokujin no kuseni
eigo wo totemo jouzuni hana shimasu.
In this case If you tell me using "kuseni"くせに, I would feel very bad.
Anyway we only use this word if we are in a close relationship.
Or we want to have trash talking.
