Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: RYOBI at 4.7 against Jackery's 2.4. RYOBI also leads on ratings volume (13K vs 208) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). Jackery's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
