Image: Ecovacs Ecovacs’ new robovac has a mop that extends to clean hard-to-reach spots, like corners and the edges of walls. But unlike other robovacs equipped with extendable mops, the Deebot X8 Pro Omni trades circular mop pads for a roller mop that cleans itself while it roves about your house. The robovac, which Ecovacs first revealed at IFA last year, has a mop that applies up to 4,000Pa of pressure and revolves 200 times per minute. At the same time, Ecovacs says the X8 Pro Omni cleans its roller using 16 water nozzles. It whisks dirty water into the robovac’s waste water tank, helping to prevent it from dragging stains across the floor and causing streaks. Meanwhile, the X8 Pro Omni’s vacuum comes with an impressive 18,000Pa suction power and an anti-tangle brush to keep hairs from getting wrapped around the brush. To navigate your home, the robovac uses the new “TrueEdge” 3D sensor that’s supposed to help the robovac identify and adapt to different types of edges and baseboards, along with an AI system that recognizes objects like shoes and cables. Like some of Ecovacs’ other vacuums, the X8 Pro Omni can be controlled with your voice. However, hackers broke into Ecovacs’ systems last year, letting them take over Deebot X2 vacuums to shout slurs and chase pets. Recent reports from ABC Australia also found serious security vulnerabilities with some of Ecovacs’ products and said the company collects photos, videos, and voice recordings if users consent to an AI training program. Ecovacs also showed off its Deebot T50 line, with the higher-end T50 Max Pro offering up to 15,000Pa of suction. There’s the T50 Pro Omni, too, which comes with Ecovacs’ slimmest design so far at just 81mm (around 3.2 inches), allowing it to more easily slip beneath beds and couches. The Deebot X8 Pro Omni is priced at $1,399.99 and will be available in mid-February, while Ecovacs will reveal details on pricing and availability for the Deebot T50 lineup at a later date.
