Quick answers

Is the EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra X better than the Jackery Explorer 5000 Plus?: EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra X leads by 24 points overall.
Which has more usable capacity, the EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra X or Jackery Explorer 5000 Plus?: The EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra X, by 6,161 Wh — 10,445 Wh versus 4,284 Wh, a 144% advantage. At a 60 W load that is roughly 102.7 extra hours before the battery is empty. Both figures are estimated AC-delivered energy, not the nameplate battery rating — the watt-hours that actually reach your devices, which is always less than the number on the box.
Which has more AC output, the EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra X or Jackery Explorer 5000 Plus?: The EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra X: 12,000 W versus 7,200 W continuous. That gap matters only if a load sits between the two numbers — below 7,200 W both run it, above 12,000 W neither does. Neither model publishes a surge figure we can source, so startup capability is unresolved here — check it before planning around a motor or compressor load.
How does runtime compare between the EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra X and Jackery Explorer 5000 Plus?: On the same sourced load — a refrigerator (full-size) — the EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra X runs longer: 165.8 hours against 68. These are planning estimates from each model's AC-delivered capacity, not stopwatch tests; real duty cycle and temperature move them.
Which is lighter, the EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra X or Jackery Explorer 5000 Plus?: The Jackery Explorer 5000 Plus, by 74.5 kg (61 kg versus 135.5 kg). Both weights are manufacturer figures for the bare unit; cables and a solar panel add to whatever you actually carry.
Which model should I buy for my use case?: On the sub-scores that describe each use case: the EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra X for home backup; the Jackery Explorer 5000 Plus for camping & rv. They split, so the honest answer depends on which of those you are actually buying for.
