I feel like EcoFlow makes it a bit hard to compare the different models, they don't really do comparisons with their own models and they do screwy things with the numbers. For instance, they have a comparison of a 1000VA UPS, the River 3 and the River 3 Plus, and for the UPS and 3 Plus, they use a 600W computer for the computer runtime benchmark, but for the 3 they use a 300W computer. I think it's because other models like the River 2 Pro which has a lot higher capacity is 2x the price, and is better in a lot of ways, but has a <30ms power switch-over time which means that you shouldn't use it as a UPS. I think that they want you to really dig if you want to compare the different models.
IMO 600W opens up a lot more options for powering devices so unless you have a particular use case in mind that is <300W I'd recommend spending the extra $55 for the plus.
Edit: I did find an official response by EcoFlow. It looks like the unit they officially designed for UPS needs is the River 3 Plus.
